100 FINE BLOODED HORSES
Brought to Oregon by A. C. Ruby and
Himself Conditions in tbe
Countries Visited
H. F. DeardortT, of Oakland, and
A. C. Ruby, of l'oriluud, reached
home Thursday from a two months'
trip to Europe, bringing back with
them ubout 100 head of the Ilnest
blooded horses ever .brought tu this
country. These include Belgians,
Percherons, German Coach, Shires
and Hackneys. On their trip these
gentlemen travelled abount 20,000
' miles, visiting England, France, Ger
many, Belgium and Holland. Tlu
horses were all brought to Mr.
Huby's headquarters at Portland.
Mr. DeardortT was in ltoseburg 01
