Across the river 1 culled upon Henry lleeb, who is an extensive stock-raiser. He showed me some first-class cows, calves and bulls, and in his barn I looked at a line lot of mares, colts and young hore3s. He keeps his own stallions and manages with eare the breeding, which enables him to raise excellent saddle and draft horses. His Norman is a very noble looking stallion.Charles Anceny was next called upon. He is another ol Gallatin’s most prominent farmers and stock raisers. His cattle numbers several hundred, and among them are to be seen more pure-bloed Short-horna than elsewhere in the county. Mr. Anceny is also a large horse breeder. I noticed a band of as well formed mares and colts as are to be seen on any farm In the country. I also noticed some good stallions, one of them I should judge to be a half-breed Arabian. I meant to have published the pedigrees of some of Mr. Aneeny’s stock, but misplaced my notes, which accounts for their non-apppearancc. My pleasant slay and stroll about hia premises, looking at fine stock will long be remembered.The homes of L. B. Crittenden and E. M. ^ Davidson was next on my way. Mr. Davidson and his partner, Mr. Wright, were engaged in shearing sheep and had not much time to chat. They have sold out, I believe, and were preparing to deliver the flock.
