ankles white; right at 16 hands, weighs
l,lW. He has plenty OF bone and sub
stance but is highly finished.
He has n splendid hoof-Iegs are fiat and
clean as bars OF steel. He is finely coupled,
has short back, good length underneath,
well ribbed out, fine sloping shoulder,
heavy loin, and the finest head and neck
ever put or any horse.
He is a natural saddle horse; goes all
the gaits, and his running walk is hard to
beat. Drives single and double. He is
very intelligent n kind; a lady can ride
or drive him anywhere, right up to a
train, and he is afraid of nothing. Granger
Denmark is the best bred saddle stallion
IN the United States to day. He is the

all Denmarks) and out OF a mare by Old

family OF saddl RS, and having back OF
this the blood of Old Grey Eagle and
Whip In his I'd and Sd dams.
He was bred and raised by Col. Fields
OF Woodford county, Kentucky, a man
who has bred, raised and sold more fine
saddle horses than any man in Kentucky.
Col. Fields stood him four years, and Their
sold him to parties in Monroe county,
this state, from whom we bought him
Granger has never changed hands but
once before we got him.
The following is taken from a letter
from Col. Fields to me in regard tc
Granger:
DEAR SIR:-yours of twentieth inst. JUS

Granger, as given, Is correct: and will ado
Tin my opinion) there Is no better bred saddle

uniform breeder. His colts being fine goer,
in Kentucky and Missouri. two of whom arr
owne1 in Paris, Monroe county. Mo. l car
truly say he was considered one of the fines
breeders in Kentucky"
A. F. Wycoff, Appleton City, Mo-, has
one of his colts, Artist Granger, at the
head Of his stud, standing him in place OF
Artist Montrose, whose fee is $40, Mr..
Wycoff having sent his horse, Artist
Montrose, to Monroe county to stand in
place of Artist Granger.
AS we are in the business to stay, and
will keep on hand at all times for public
service the best bred saddle stations that
money will buy, we ask the support of
the breeders of Lafayette and adjoining
counties in establishing and breeding this
useful and always saleable class of horses,

attention, but will not be responsible fol
accidents or escapes.
