To Farmers, Breeders, and Individuals 
wanting the BEST Cows and Horses. 
The undersigned, for many years breeder of Jersey Cattle 
and Hambletonian Horses, offers for sale, on reasonable 
terms, 100 head of thoroughbred and grade Jersey heifers, 
cows and bulls, and 25 horses and colts of ail ages. Among 
the Jerseys are many family cows that give 14 to 20 quarts of 
very rich milk per day, and have made 2 lbs. or more of 
splendid butter per day. Among the horses are Gentlemens 
and Ladies' single driving and saddle horses, matched pairs, 
and some of them untrained ; can trot a mile inside of three 
minutes. I prefer that all purchasers should examine my 
herd for themselves, as any written description of such stock, 
to me, bv an unknown seller, would not be satisfactory. 
All stock sold by me is guaranteed as represented.
