offering for sale one of the best producers OF
speed that has been brought before the people,
but owing TO him being bred and owned by enc
of those unbelievers Of standardism and BY one
that predicted 10 years ago the very same theory
that today is favored by the best breeders of the
nation and that is standard by Inheritance, and
through that idea Lord Brougham was not Der-
mitted TO have a number although he was elgi-
BILE 10 one. the same as 1890 OF our so called best
bred stations IN Wisconsin, for he is not only

which would be standard under present rules OF
breeding, by there breeding. While many OF the
standard bred animals are rot individually fast
performers but quite to the contrary. The most
extreme speed performers Of to-day are not
standard by breeding and TO look over the breed
ing Of many Of them like Mac 6. Jay Eye See.
Polo Alto, Axtell. Clingstone and very many more
and all the very best and most speedy perform
ers, one must say in his own mind that no rule
or guide can be made that will warrant a certain
result.
leave it to you to make make the price and
whatever price you pay my wish is that you may
do well. Yours Respectfully,
