WOODLA WN KENNELS, 

 Louisville, Ky, 



From time to time in past years notices 

 have appeared in journals throughout the 

 country of a cat farm in Louisville, man- 

 aged by a woman, Mrs, Nellie L. Davis 

 Barnes. These notices attracted attention 

 twenty years ago, not only on account of 

 the unique occupation, but that a woman 

 should engage in such a strange business. 

 Mrs. Barnes is an Eastern woman, and while 

 she was a child, a sailor uncle brought from 

 India a splendid red cat, and from Persia 

 two beautiful Angoras. The mother of 

 Mrs. Barnes raised these kittens with suc- 

 cess, and the entire family became stanch 

 believers in long-haired cats. 



When Mrs, Barnes came to Louisville, she 

 brought with her several cats of the origi- 

 nal "Ghirka" stock from her New England 

 home. In her new home Mrs. Barnes found 

 both pleasure and profit in what was then 

 a strange business. The sale of fine cats 

 grew steadily from year to year, until it 

 became a regular business, with an estab- 

 lished clientele. Her Kennel is the oldest 

 and best known in the country, and is con- 

 ducted on lines peculiarly its own. Every 

 year Mrs. Barnes imports through her 



agents at Havre and London, sires and 

 queens of pedigree and keeps them ex- 

 clusively for her own kennel uses. 



White SiBk French Poodles 



are rapidly coming into favor as the leading 

 canine pet as well as an important factor 

 in the pet stock industry. The Woodlawn 

 Kennels possess some of the most notable 

 animals m the country. The kennels are 

 equipped with every facility for breeding 

 these dogs in large quantities to meet the 

 growing demands of the trade, and the 

 skill of the most experienced and best edu- 

 cated breeders and fanciers is brought to 

 bear on their production in the utmost 

 perfection. 



AS PETS 



they are unrivalled, and as investments 

 they pay the largest returns. They are 

 justly noted for their intelligence, and they 

 are eagerly sought for by dog and pony 

 shows at fancy prices, because they are 

 more intelherent and more easily trained 

 than other dogs and at the same time are 

 more attractive and possess a greater 

 beauty of form and more grace of move- 

 ment than any other small breed of dogs.
