McKerron 2:04% (sire of Jack McKerron 2:23%. Harry McKerron 2:24%, Irene Mac 2:29%, and Carrie Mac 2:29%), John A. McKerron 2:04% has been mated with the choicest bred mares in America, among them being Lou Dil- lon 1:58%. It proves how much this strain is sought after by the most progressive breeders. Ingar was the greatest speed-producing daughter of the mighty Director 2:17; the second dam, Annie Titus (dam of Annie C. 2:23%), was by Echo (sire of the dam of Direct 2:05%), and the third dam was the Tiffany Mare (dam of Gibraltar 2:22%, a sire, and Coligny, a sire), by Owendale, by Williamson's Belmont. This is what can be truthfully called stout breeding and the kind that breeds on. Nearest 2:22% is the sire of Alone (4) 2:09% (trial 2:06%, holds % mile rec- ord :59%), High Fly (2) 2:24% (trial 2:17%), Just It (3) 2:19%, True Heart (trial 2:20%) and Our Lady (trial 2:20%). He is very symmetrically built, bay in color, stands 15% hands and weighs 1,200 pounds. He is a horse of grand finish, strong shoul- ders, stout back, well muscled loins and stifles and the best of feet and legs. His disposition is perfect. I will stand him during the season of 1908 at my stable, 1042 Alameda avenue, near Race street, San Jose, Cal. The terms are $40 for the season, with usual return privileges. Owners of good mares should not overlook Nearest 2:22% if they are seek- ing to breed horses that will have breeding, good looks, substance, quality and speed. His progeny is recognized for these qualities, combined with the best of dispositions. The other stallion at my place is called Nearest McKinney 40698 and his sire
