An unparalleled record for a small breeder 
ALEXANDER 161769. 1700-lb. yearling, 2d at Iowa State Fair, 
1920: full brother to BRILLIANT H 147476 
We bred and raised CLIMAX 148097, 1st prize two-year-old 
stallion, reserve champion American bred and reserve junior 
champion stallion at the 1919 International, Chicago. 
We bred and raised BRILLIANT H. We sold him and he was 
later exported to England and sold there for $7,000 to head one 
of the best English studs of Percherons. When we all know that 
the English breeders are such critical judges, it is a great credit 
to any breeder to produce a stallion good enough to stand at the 
head of one of their breeding establishments. We have two full 
brothers of tliis colt for sale. We have other good young mares and 
stallions that are priced right. 
We began breeding Percherons in 1893 in McLean County, 111.
