trils indicative of constitution, a face that is long from the eye to the 

 nose, showing a freedom from beef making instincts, also broad and well 

 dished between two large, bright, prominent and placid eyes which point

 from chuflBness in the neck is another indication of a lack of beef mak-

 the long, deep, broad body, the freedom from beefiness throughout and

 Beauvoir's King. With the exception of age these two animals are very 

 similar; Beauvoir's King showing a trifle more length of body, a lit u 

 .Tiore finish at the tail head but lacking somewhat in depth of body as 

 compared to Derry's Golden Jolly. If, however, individuality determines 

 the character of the resulting daughters of sires, either of these bulls
