    DEVELOPMENT LATER IN LIFE 283 one year later they weighed 3600 pounds (Fig. 65), at which time $1500 was refused for the pair. The intention was to put the pair in the famous Wilson six-horse team, but this was rendered impossible by the death of one of the horses. Both the above illustrations furnish striking examples of outstanding animals going begging for a little extra feed.
