During the past four months these men have devoted much of their time in fitting the pure-bred horses for the show ring and the fine results show that they did a good job. Proper feeding is essential and regularity in exercise is one of the requisites, while grooming and other care is part of the work. Frank Dewey of Delaware Cdunty, Ohio , largest county in the United States for the raising and selling of Percheron horses, was at the head of the work and was in charge of the I horses at the show. Mr. Dewey, who I has wide experience In raising and [ fitting Percherons for the show ring; | Newell, Johnson, Hornbolt, and Hall, as well as Henry M. Smith, manager of the Pine Tree Dairy farms, and W R. Skidmore, owner, are all proud and happy over the fine showing made by, the superb string of horses displayed and feel more than repaid for their time and effort spent in preparation. All of the horses were purchased by Henry Finklestein, buyer for the farm. It is evident that Mr. Skidmbre believes in the old adage, "Whatever is wo«b doing at all is worth do^ng well," for not only did he win prizes on his horses, but he also won the prise for the beautiful decoration of their stalls, which were elaborately done in green and whJte corduroy, colors of the Pine Tree farms. An alluring item on the sight-seeing schedule at the exposition was the magnificent exhibit of Percherons. A Percheron is one of the most majestic creatures in the equine kingdom and its story is one of interest. Ancestral Home About 100 miles southwest of j Paris there is a region sixty miles in diameter and comprising 3,600 square miles, which is the ancestral home of these superb draft horses. The region is classic ground to breeders of draft horses, just as the blue grass region of Kentucky is classic ground to race horse breeders. There is some special quality in the soil of Le Perche that builds the big bones of Percherons and any colt born within the charmed circle that, is a purebred Percheron and that passes inspection, gets "S. P.," "Societaire Percheron," branded on his neck by the Percheron society of France. Such is the origih of the strain of Percherons FOUR GENERATIONS b yK'» & •The above photo shows Mrs. Julia Frett, who passed away last week, her daughter, Mrs. Jofm Feilen, Chicago; granddaughter, Mrs. Math Majewski, Elmwood Pajrk, and great-granddaughter, Judy Majewski.

The Suffolks, as well as the Percherons, are a good farm horse for which they are bred, and are gentle and easy to break and keep. They are known as a light draft horse, weighing around 1,800 pounds. These beautiful pure-bred horses wore their vari-colored ribbpns proudly as they pranced around the huge amphitheater in the daily parade of aristocracy of registered stock from all parts of the nation and world, seeming to know what it was all about and realizing their importance. Ten Men in Charge Ten men from the Pine Tree Dairy farms were in charge of the horses in their attractively decorated stalls during the ten days of the exposition and Henry M. Smith, manager of the farms, spent eight days there. The horses, taken to Chicago on Thanksgiving day, reached Long Lake via the Milwaukee A St Paul railroad, Sunday night, and were returned to their comfortable barns at the Pine Tree farms Monday, most of them being led home from Long Lake. There were at least twice as many animals exhibited in this year's show as were paraded before the judges at the first show in 1900.
