Chapter V: Part 5

Text size

With Little Sister, we grieve over the condemned long-legged
colt. We help her to rescue the little deformed thing from the
hands of the negro executioner. We shout and sing and dance
and “’Rah for Little Sister” at the race course as she swings
proudly into the ring and wins the race.

Right gladly we renew our acquaintance with “Old Wash” and our
sympathies are his as he attempts with his luscious watermelons
to reach the hearts of his people through their stomachs, and
also defeats his own purpose through their stomachs.

A “History of the Hals” appeals strongly to lovers of fine
horses. Many horses of the Hal family are owned by Texans and
the articles on this especial subject will be read with avidity
by subscribers over this state as well as elsewhere. A bright
magazine enjoyed alike by every member of the household we find
TROTWOOD’S MONTHLY to be, and “Barkis is more than willin’”
that it should be the success it so well deserves.

IN THE STUD

JOHN R. GENTRY 2:00½, the handsomest of all turf horses. Has held ten world’s records. Twice grand champion for one and three heats. A winner in Madison Square Garden. A sire of pronounced beauty, speed and intelligence. Sires both trotters and pacers of extraordinary speed and destined to be the greatest sire in the world.—Fee, $100.00.

McEWEN 2:18¼—Prize winner at St. Louis, 1904, when 19 years old. Unquestionably the best sire of his age, bred and owned in Tennessee. Sire of 26 with fast records. A great race horse, a splendid road horse, a successful show horse and a remarkable sire.—Fee, $30.00.

HAL BROWN, one of the speediest of Brown Hal’s sons. Showed two-minute speed as a yearling. Full brother to four with records from 2:07¼ to 2:13¼. Represents on both sides the best of Tennessee’s pacing strains. A most precocious sire.

The Ewell Farm JERSEY HERD is headed by TOMMY TORMENTOR 67233, a double greatgrandson of Imp. Tormentor 3533 (whose blood entered more largely into the pedigrees of the winning herd in the World’s Fair test, at St. Louis, 1904, than that of any other bull). A bull of exact dairy conformation, beautiful color and great vigor. After January 1, 1906, a few young bulls and heifers will be offered for sale.

The SHETLANDS at Ewell Farm have been selected with great care, especial attention having been paid to beauty, uniformity in size (36 to 42 inches) and docility of temper. Not for many years have these ponies failed to delight their purchasers. Geldings 1 to 3 years old for sale.

SOUTHDOWN SHEEP.—Our Southdowns are of pure blood, but unregistered. Especially adapted for breeding spring lambs.
