nesota and Indiana state fairs, and sec- 

 ond at the International Exposition. Pro- 

 fessor Thomas Shaw is credited with 

 saying at the Minnesota state fair that 

 he was "one of the best types of the 

 breed he ever saw." The cow Scottish 

 Princess 1st 19335 is one of Scottish 

 Standard's greatest female descendants. 

 At the 1901 International she won first 

 prize in class and champion female. Ii\ 

 1902 as a yearling at the state fairs she 

 was placed third at Wisconsin, sec- 

 ond at Indiana, first in class and 

 junior champion at Minnesota, and 

 was third at the Iowa state fair. This 

 season she won four blue ribbons 

 and four junior championships. In 1903 

 she was first prize 2-year-old Galloway 

 cow at the Illinois state fair and was 

 given third place in class at the Inter- 

 national Exposition. She is a female of 

 great beauty and superior breed type. 



Scottish Mist 19771, another daughter 

 of Scottish Standard, as a heifer calf in 

 1902 either stood first or second in class 

 at all the fairs, and in 1903 she divided 

 honors with Scottish Princess 2d 20905, 

 her half-sister, for first place at the 

 shows. In 1903 a popular favorite was 

 Adelia of Brookside 22716, a heifer calf 

 by Scottish Standard, she being made 

 first prize winner in class and junior fe- 

 male champion at the leading fairs. In 

 1902 Standard -Yet 19776 appeared as a 

 bull calf in the ring and he proved very 

 successful. Two-In-One 197B5, another 

 son, in 1903 made a creditable show as 

 a yearling. 



Scottish Standard has proven very fer- 

 tile as a breeder, and the Brookside herd 

 has relied largely on him for its show 

 yard winnings. From a personal letter 

 to the author from Brookside farm the 

 following is quoted: "In the fall of 1903 

 we took with us to the following fairs 

 eleven calves, sired by Scottish Stand- 

 ard; the fairs were at Des Moines, Iowa; 

 Hamline, Minn.; Springfield, 111.; Indian- 

 apolis, Ind. ; American Royal at Kansas 

 City and the International at Chicago. At 

 these shows we with our eleven calves 

 won forty-seven first prizes, twenty-four 

 second prizes, eighteen third prizes, seven 

 junior championships and one grand 

 championship. * * * We will state 

 that the animals we showed this fall 

 were all Scottish Standard calves, Scot- 

 tish Standard 1st being our 2-year-old, 

 Two-In-One our yearling bull, Scottish
