ber, made a strong showing, and the breed was well represented by some 

 of its best specimens. The grand champions were the same as last 

 year, Messrs. Binnie & Son winning on their many times champion, 

 Kloman, and Messrs. Miller & Son winning again on Barbara Woodson, 

 who won championship all around the circuit last year. W. A. McHenry 

 was the strong winner in herds and other group classes, and was also 

 strong in the fight for championships. Messrs. Chas. Escher & Son, 

 Botna, la., were exhibitors of young bulls, which were very strong in 

 their classes, and won several firsts. Anderson & Son of Newell, Iowa, 

 were out with a strong herd, and won some good prizes. Mr. Rosenfeld 

 of Kelly, Iowa, was the other exhibitor, and won prizes in all the classes 

 in which he had entries. The aw^ards were made by Mr. C. J. Martin 

 of Churdan, Iowa. 



THE WHITE FACES. 



The Hereford show was strong, as usual, but did not excel the re- 

 markably strong showing made by this breed at the low^a State Fair a 

 year ago. There w^ere thirteen exhibitors and among them were the 

 strongest winners of a year ago. Much of the competition was the same 

 as last year and the contest for first honors was much the same as then.
