c.,,os Prairie and Salmon River Men Paw Out Over
$1,000 For Fancy Breeders

Robert Hamill, who is known lover
OF horseflesh, but has always liked the
high-steppers, could not resist when the
fine Belgian stallion, "Homer," was
put on the block. This noted sire was
aiso'secured for Camas Priarie, and he
cost Hamill $1,000 but is worth every
cent of that amount.
This animal took first money at the
Oregon fair at Salem in the Belgian
class and also first at the Walla Walla
fair. He is eighteen months old and
tips the beam at 1920 pounds. His
sire was Azur (3922) and dam Judith
DeSteene (959).

just as enthusiastic over high-c class
stock as they are in any other section

steers came from, August Schroeder of

er enthusiast is Barney Lichtfield Of
that section who paid 5000 for fine
