With the single exception of the imported 

 cow Mazurka, for which Mr. R. A. Alexander 

 had paid $3,050 at the Northern Kentucky Im- 

 porting Cb.'s sale, the purchase of Rachel 2d by 

 Capt. Brown at $3,025 represented high-water 

 mark up to that date for a Short-horn female 

 at public sale in North America. This cow is 

 described to us by Col. James W. Judy as "a 

 rich roan, rather leggy, quite lengthy and some- 

 what light in the body." Unfortunately for 

 her buyer she lived but a few years and had no 

 produce that proved fruitful. Western Lady, 

 Caroline and Constance were the cows that left 

 the most and best progeny among all the fe- 

 males of the importation. In fact, so far as 

 herd-book records indicate, these three cows 

 are about the only ones that did found families
