SAMTJFX C. ZEITJSR,
Something of His, Home and Swroundtags
and His Thoroughbred Horses aud
cattle
There are few men in this section of
Michigan who arc better or more favorably known than Samuel 0- Zeiter
of Lootnis.. For nearly a score of years
. i he has resided io thab ft-rtile corner
*' of Isabella county, and with pride, and
interest has watched that section of
the country develop into the rich garden snot it is rapidly becoming, and
has been prominently identified with
sM its? improvements ao<3 advancements. Fur years he was engaged in
that vicinity in lumbering operations,
Jn the saw and: shingle mill business
• and other timber interests, and from
these has gained a competency to place
him and his family in comfortable
Circumstances,
Mr. Zeiter's home is located at the
north end of the principal street of
Loomis, where he owns a .O-acre traot
Of land bordering on that village. The
homo is a fine, large and pleasant appearing house, and its appearance is
beautified by its ample shade and well
kept grounds. Extensive repairs,and
improvements to the dwelling have
"f •' just been completed, which includes a
stone foundation under the entire
structure, a fine large stone cellar with
cement floor and matched ceiling, fine
new verandas*, a nice large cistern, etc.
Everything roudabout looks inviting
and homelike, while the interior is
furnished with all that the heart can
desire to make it comfortable  and
• pleasant—and those who have enjoyed
the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Zeiter
have indeed enjoyed a pleasure of profit that will long recall grateful remembrances.
The buildings on this farm home are
many, convenient and well kept, A
large horse barn and carriage shed are
a ...orfc distance to the rear of the
hou&e and are aceessable from a side
street. A long row of box-like stalls
for horses and cattle are adjoining on
the north and are enclosed by a high
hoard fence, giving afine area for ranging. Opening from this enclosure is
a lane leading a short distance north
*Y.-. to a mammoth two-story frame barn,
which alone lends an air of prosperity.
Down in the. pasture where were grazing a herd of fine horses and cattle is
arranged a watering trough, fed by a
living spring flowing from out a side
hill, which never goes dry and eyen in
the coldest weather seldom freezes
Over. Still further to the north i n an
adjoining field is Mr. Zeiter's private,
driving course, one of the finest half
mile tracks in northern Michigan—
and in days gone by there has been
many a spirited brush thereon between
Mr. Zeiter and his friends from th'e
neighboring towns and country who
owned fast steppers.
Sam (using the familiar title) is a
great lover of finely bred animals, and
his herd, though not large in point of
numbers, can boast of some of the best
blood that the country affords.   He is
well up on all points pertaining to the
hone. At the head of his li$t is the
highly bred trotting stallion, 7olhalm,
(registered 24483) a bandsooie bright
ba^y, 6 years old, which he paid$40Qfor
when a colt. This horse is from remarkably fast stock, and himself has
evinced great speed under Sam's training. In all he has 12 head of horses,
including suckling colts, line young
roadsters, brooding mares and working teams. Every coltis halter broken
and in flnecoadition. His cattle com-,
prises Ave head of thoroughbred registered Jerseys, and are beauties.
But for all this, notwithstanding
the ample accommodations and convenience's his surroundings afford, Mr,
Zeiter is tiring of the care and anxiety pertaining to the«proper keeping
of such stock and is determined, to
rid himself of them whatever the cost
of sacrifice. He offers the entire lot,
both horses and cattle, far below their
market value and invites an inspection and offer from anyone m the market and wanting breeding that can
be proven and traced for generations.

perfectly well when Mr. Youdan inscribed his name and date on the turtle. It has never been seen but once
