signments came from the principal stock
farms and breeders in Indiana and the ad-
joining States, and the demand for space
was so great that nearly one hundred con-
signments were refused owing to the fact
that the sale is limited to cover a period
of five days, and only that stock which
was considered strictly first class was ac-
copied From the numerous inquiries for
catalogues coming from different parts OF
the United States there is every reason to
believe that this sale will be the largest in

prominent horse buyers and breeders ever
