Reserve Grand Champion Mare 1019 International, 
Cliicago. Tlie Only YearlinST Filly That Was 
Ever Made Reserve Grand Champion 
at This Show 
With a firm conviction that the extent to 
which a Percheron breeder succeeds from 
now on depends on his producing high class 
stuff. I set about to buy some of the best 
Percherons money would secure. I got what 
I thought was the best yearling stallion E. B. White of Virginia had. This colt, a son 
of Dragon 52155 ( 63516), twice grand champion at the International, was good enough 
to win the yearling futurity at the 1919 Ohio Percheron Breeders' Show and to be made 
junior champion. This was the largest yearling stallion futurity ever held in this 
country. Then I purchased of Mr. White Capo 41950, the dam of Maina 70813, grand 
champion mare at the same show and also dam of Mouton 194780, reserve grand 
champion stallion at the 1915 World's Fair. I also succeeded in persuading the same 
breeder to part with Fleurette 70811, the dam of Fauchon, first prize yearling, reserve 
champion American bred mare and reserve junior champion mare at the 1913 Inter- 
national. Fleurette is also the dam of Favorita 104785, grand champion mare at the 
1916 Bryn Mawr Horse Show, the dam of Dragon II 123007, at the head of one of the 
largest studs in the northwestern part of the U. S., and Dough Boy 150873, the second 
prize futurity stallion at this same Ohio Show. Such noted producing mares are rare 
finds. Then I purchased Gloriana 154389, 
the undefeated yearling filly in 1919 and re- 
serve grand champion at the 1919 Interna- 
tional. In 1919 she won five firsts and eight 
championships. She was made grand cham- 
pion mare at two different state fairs in 
1919. She is sired by Koilacia, the horse 
that has sired more first prize futurity 
winners than any other stallion. I have been 
a breeder of Percherons for a number of 
years, but never before had the opportunity to 
secure such promising prospects for my breed- 
ing stud. I have a few good young stallions 
and fillies for sale.
