820 A HISTORY OF HEREFORD CATTLE 



thusiastic western breeders of that day the good ma- 

 terial that had been transferred so lavishly from 

 English to American pastures in the preceding years 

 had been wisely utilized. Mr. Stannard was coming 

 strong at Sunny Slope and had second prize in cows 

 on the big Lady Matchless 2d by, the Don Carlos 

 bull Pride of the Clan. VanNatta's Clodia, by 

 Cherry Boy out of Clover 4th by Parmelee 's Anxiety 

 4th, was third. Sotham came next with Lady Charm- 

 ing, by Corrector out of Cherry 24th by Cedric, of 

 which cow we wrote at the time that she possesses 

 "beautiful character, the sweet head and clean 

 throttle that are characteristic of the Weavergrace 

 cattle, and that furry coat of yellow-red hair, as mel- 

 low-looking as a ripened peach, that has come to be 

 the trade-mark of the Correctors. " 



Tom Clark's massive Everest, by Lars out of Jes- 

 sie Clark 2d by Anxiety 3d, led the two-year-olds, 

 followed by Sotham 's brown-eyed beauty Benison, 

 Clark's Winona, also by Lars, and Gudgell & 

 Simpson 's great heifer Mischievous by Lamplighter. 

 Nave's Carnation, by the Shadeland bull Acrobat 

 out of Erica 51st by Garfield, won in yearlings. The 

 same exhibitor got first in senior heifer calves with 

 Theressa by Dale. 



Nave also won the grand herd prize, with Sotham 

 second, Clark third and Gudgell & Simpson fourth. 

 The victorious Indiana cattle again scored in the 

 young herd competition. The produce-of-cow prize 

 fell to Clark and the get-of-bull award went to 

 Sotham 's Correctors.
