NOBLE PEACOCK No. 6828, will make theeason of 1915 at $10.00 to
insure a mare with foal." Noble Peacock has proven himself to be the
best breeder in Southern Kentucky. - His ftrst colts were shown at the
Columbia Fair in 1913, and won the blue tie every time they entered the
ring, defeating a number of colts by some of the most noted horses of
Kentucky. Some of them by Rex Monroe, of Springfield, Ky., a horse
that standsfor $50.00, and some by Bald Chief, that stands for 25.00.
My plan is to Live and Let Live, and I have this to say to the men that owns a Stallion in Adair and adjoining counties,
Russell, Casey, Taylor, Green, Metcalfe and Cumberland, that each owner of a Stallion in the above named counties,
make a jack pot of the amount of the season that his horse is licensed for, and deposit same with the secretary of the
Columbia Fair Association by the time the bell rings on the morning of the first day of the next Columbia Fair and let
the get of the best lot of colts from sucklings to yeariings take the money.
NOBLE PEACOCK
There is not a better bred Stallion Hying than Noble
Peacock. His colts have the size and style and lots of air
and dash, that make them look like the fine Peacock mare
that won the $500 Saddle Stake, at the Columbia Fair ,'m y
1 9 1 3, when she defeated some of the most noted horses of
Kentucky, by such sires as Rex Pea vine and Montgomery
Chief,, two-stallions that stands at $75.00 each. Now if
the Peacocks can defeat horses by such sires as these, and
with such noted men as Sam McKin, of Lebanon, and
Dock Dry, of Hustonville, Ky., judging, isn't that proof
enough that there is none as good as the Peacock's. Read
Noble's pedigree and you will see that there is none better
bred than this grand young sire.

lO GOOD JACKS
Jacks.
'I have 1 0 Jacks and will stand just as
, i .many of them as will take to accommo-
date my customers. At the head of this
. .fine herd of Jacks is Highwave, a jack
that has made a great reputation as "a
. breeder. V He is 15 1-2 hands, with
style, weight and bone black with white
- points, and is the best breeder I ever
owned. Some of his colts sold last fall
at weaning time for $100. I never
heard of mules by any other jack selling
for $100. Last fall, two years ago, his
colts sold as high as $125 at wean
ing time, and I sold one pair, two years
old, for $440. When you breed to this
jack you get a colt. I have been in the
breeding business for 37 years and this
is the surest jack I have ever seen.

This Jack is 4 years old, and has for
his sire Black Diamond, a 16 hand jack
owned by G. Y. Thompson, Center
Ky. This Jack showed a fine lot of
colts lasf year and some of them were as
good as I ever saw. C. C. Claycomb
raised one of his mules that was near 1 4
hands at weaning time. Now if you
want mules that will bring the most
money, bring your mares' to my stock.
I will stand as many jacks as it will
take to do the business. I have been in
the breeding business '37 years, and I
do not keep anything but the veay best,
and I know how to handle stock of this
kind. I always have my stock well
broke and under my control never had
an accident in breeding.
I will charge $ 1 0 00 for mare mules
and $8 00 for horse mules. Money
due when mares are traded or removed
from the neighborhood. If mare loses
colt by carelessness of the owner, he
must pay the season.
