Famous California Stock Horse owned by
William Jeffery of Salinas
“CHIQUITO, OUR FRIEND”: For many summers
you have delighted the old and young by your ever
cheerful and generous performances at every gathering
in California where horse lovers congregate. You
demonstrate by your performance the fact that a
smaller horse can, and perhaps does more easily than
those larger in stature, carry a large man. This rugged
quality is due to your perfect symetry, rhythm of
movement, and perfect coordination with your rider.
Ever immediatley obedient and most efficient, you
perfectly typify what the California stock horse should
be, that is, immediately and quickly responsive to the
thought and will of your rider, answering his signals
with great speed and with a minimum of effort.
The California State Fair, always recognizing per
fection, is proud to do you the honor of presenting
you its highest token of appreciation—the Gold Medal
of California and a Special Award Gold Ribbon.
Here's to you! A gallant, stouthearted, kindly affect-
jonate gentleman, and to William Jeffery of Hotel
Jeffery, Salinas, your owner, trainer and rider.
CALIFORNIA ART Co., MONTEREY, CALIF.
