These animals are doing exceedingly well in their new environment, 

 as stated in recent letters. 



Lucky, bay, foaled 1918; sire Hugo 7001; dam Eunice 0677, by 

 General Gates 666, was shipped to the King Ranch, at Kingsville,

 Dewey was used in the remount work in Vermont under direction 

 of the Department of Agriculture during the seasons of 1913, 1914, 

 and 1915, and sired many excellent colts. It was while engaged in 

 this work that he sired the registered mare Dolly, who secured sixth 

 place in the 1921 endurance ride. He was then lent for community 

 breeding in North Carolina in cooperation with the agricultural 

 experiment station at West Raleigh, where he remained until trans- 

 ferred to the Remount Service of the War Department in 1921.
