Florence Niqhtinuale,

There is Il story that after the return
to England Of the troops from the
Crimea Lord Stratford at a dinner
suggested that those present should
write on a piece Of paper the name of
the person whose Crimean reputation
would endure longest. When the
votes came to be examined it was
found that not a single soldier had re.
ceived a vote. Every paper bore the
same two words-Florence Nightin-
gale.
The Lady With the Lamp used to
relate the following story: calling

usually tidy cottage in a state Of great
disorder. why, Mrs. - said Miss

BELGIAN AND PERcnERon
STOCK AT BRooklnas'

The five pure bred imported mares
and stations purchased by r. S. Brook
ings last fall at the International Stock
Show in Chicago. are wintering we'll.
and are gainins in flesh.
The stock is kept at the Oakdale farm.
two, and one-half miles southeast Of
Richardton. where forty head of other
registered horses are kept. The owner
has one of the largest barns in Western
North Dakota. sheds adjoining and
plenty of pasturage. SO as to enable
him to dive his horses the right kind of
exercise.
The Percheron stallion, which was i'm
ported from France last August. weighs
2, $50 pounds and has the best shape and
bone of any horse ever brought west of
the Missouri river. This, any good horse
judge will be willing to admit. Such
stations are rarely imported except by
the LARGEST dealers and they probably
belong in the 81, 900 to IS, 600 class.
His two Belgian stations. one a 2
year-old. 1000 pounds, and the other
S years old. 2, 100 pounds, were imported
from Belgium at the same time; also
two Belgian mares, n 4 years old
and the other S years old, the pair
weighing 4, 200 pounds.
Nj. Bookings has a number of other
registered stations and some very fine
stock that he is willing to sell. In
fact. he will sell anything on the farm,
and it would be a pretty good place for
any intending purchaser to visit before
buying.
A little I'VE a year ago the owner of
the Oakdale farm sold out his range
horses. numbering 40, at $3.50 per head.
Not long ago Mr.. Bookings lost
a 6-year-old registered Percheron mare
by the Northern Pacific. This fine
grey mare was, valued at ST., 900 and was
one of the best mares in the band.
Mr.. Bookings has sold several pairs
of mares at $500. which goes to show
that he has both size and quality in
his stock.
