Stock Farm
Image
A handwritten sign identifies the "Shing-Wak Stock Farm, John B. Breselle (?) Prop., Dealer in Draft Horses." It also advertises "Green Mountain Seed Potatoes For Sale." An unidentified white man, left, is standing beside a Native American man who is presumably the farm's owner. In the background there are two animals grazing in the background, and on the right is a story and one half farmhouse with an open front porch.
1920
