A PERIOD OF PROPOUND DEPRESSION 377 



State Fair in 1890 and was again made champion in 

 1898 after ' raising 7 colts in the intervening time. 

 Her daughters were good also, and one, Charlotte 

 21635, won second as a two-year-old at the state fair. 

 Charlotte went to the Jean DuLuth Co., and did 

 much toward building up that stud. Milena 21636, 

 another daughter of Charmante, was also a show- 

 yard winner and was sold by the De Lanceys to 

 Charles B. Crandall, Randolph, Minn., in 1898. 

 Milena was really owned for a time by Crandall Bros. 

 They bred her to Spuller 17123 (20848) and to this 

 service she foaled in 1900 the stallion Titian 25925, 

 used for a number of years at the head of the 

 Crandall & Danforth stud at Randolph, Minn. 



The chief sires used by the De Lanceys during this 

 time were Pluton 10921 (15387), Sophocle 13575 

 (20845), Titus 17122 (36778) and Lyceen 21630 

 (42509). Lyceen is considered to have done them 

 the most good, and his stock, sired in France and 

 America, has been on the average of superior type 

 and quality. Lyceen was sold to Gr. "W. Patterson 

 and later went to Jean DuLuth Farm. Lyceen was 

 bought by the DeLanceys from Ernest Perriot, Sr., 

 and was of Brilliant breeding. Titus was one of the 

 best sires used and was a big, rugged, heavy-boned 

 horse, weighing more than 2,200 pounds. He did not 

 remain long in the Belleview Farm stud however; 

 James M. Fletcher bought him about 1896 or '97 

 and sold him to "Wyatt Stanley, Stronghurst, HI. 

 Here he sired some very good colts, including a num- 

 ber of purebreds.
