fair and exposition at Detroit, second 

 prize at the Michigan state fair and 

 first prize at. the Ohio state fair at Co- 

 lumbus. This year at St. Louis he was 

 in the second-prize lot of four animals 

 the get of one sire. In 1892 Corrector 

 was the third-prize yearling at the De- 

 troit International fair and exposition, 

 was first prize in class at the Darke 

 county (Ohio) fair at Greenville, and at 

 the state fairs of Ohio and Indiana, and 

 second prize at the St. Louis exposition. 

 He also headed the first-prize young 

 herd at Columbus and Indianapolis, and 

 was in the group of four receiving sec- 

 ond prize as get of one sire at St. Louis. 

 In 1892 he was known as a promising 

 yearling. In 1893 he was first in the 

 2-year-old Hereford class at the Iowa 

 state fair, first at the northern Missouri 

 district fair at Chillicothe and champion 

 at the head of the herd over all breeds 

 at the same show, was first prize at 

 Trenton, Mo., second prize at the St. 

 Joseph exposition and was second prize 

 in herd at the St. Louis f^ir. Finally, in 

 1894, he was champion bull, any age. 

 over all breeds at the northern Missouri 

 district fair at Chillicothe. 



The real strength of the story of Cor- 

 rector lies in the character of his off- 

 spring. Had it not been for these the 

 world would never have heard much of 

 this bull. This was a great breeder, but 

 more especially of bulls. He was of 

 impressive carriage, with proud bearing 

 and graceful crest, and a head of much 

 character. His offspring are notable for 

 their impressive fronts and breed char- 

 acteristics as shown in head and horn. 

 Corrector was strong, broad and well 

 sustained of back, as are many of his 

 descendants, with heavy fleshing quali- 

 ties and a superior covering of hair. 

 Prominent among his sons may be men- 

 tioned Cadillac, Checkmate, Chillicothe, 

 Chorister, Emperor, Exemplar, Goodwin. 

 Grandee, Harold, Prince Laurel, Photo- 

 graph, Protection, Sir Bredwell, Sir 

 Comewell and Thickset. Of his daugh- 

 ters Benefice, Benlta, Choke Cherry. 

 Ecstasy, ' Florimel, Gallatea, Genevieve, 

 Georgina, Golden Lassie, Grace, Happi- 

 ness, Hebe C., Lady Bredwell, Lady 

 Brenda, Lady Charming, Lady Plush- 

 coat, Nannette, Peace and Pure Gold are 

 noteworthy. 



It would occupy too much space to 

 chronicle the winnings of these and 

 other sons and daughters of Corrector,
