number, of which six are by Gay Baronet, exclusive of the bulls 

 now named Baron Boltons, formerly Lord Boltons. Laurestina 5th, 

 and Laurestina 8th, by Col. Townley's Hubback Junior, and the 

 Holker Baron Winsome, are all that remain of the Burrell Green 

 animals, the Uth, very thin, with a well filled udder giving 18 quarts 

 per day at present, and the whole family the owner informs us 

 milk heavily, many giving over 40-lbs of milk in a day after calving. 

 The llth, and 14th, by Lord Ormskirk Gwynne, are rather high at 

 the tail, but with the present sire in use this will be remedied in the 

 next generation. Four heifers are this year's produce, of the 18th 

 and 19th, straight good calves, by Gay Baronet, the former is 

 especially good, and if she goes on favourably may once more bring 

 the Laurestinas to the front. Catherine Gwynne, from Mr. 

 Caddy's AVild Eyes Gwynne 3rd, is a robust good constitutioned 

 cow very suitable for the climate, her companion Strawberry

 Dereham, is a handsome cow, and the best in the herd. Gwynne 

 Gwynne, so called on account of the double Gwynne cross, being 

 by Lord Ormskirk Gwynne, out of Catherine Gwynne, is a nice 

 heifer, noticeable for her neat well laid shoulders, she is also up at 

 North End Farm with her mother and the Strawberry cow.

 loin and forequarters, likely for doing Mr. Graham good service, he 

 is by Eastern Emperor, from Gaiety 3rd, the well known cow sold 

 at Broomley for 255 gs. to Mr. Jacob Wilson for Lord Tankerville, 

 and afterwards at the Chillingham sale, to the agent of the Duke 

 of Northumberland, and winner of many prizes at the Royal, 

 Highland, Yorkshire, and Northumberland shows. Purchases have 

 been made at Mr. Ackers' sale of Flower of Prinknash 3rd, and 

 Lily of Grenaby, also a well bred heifer Lady Sceptre at Mr. 

 Mitchell's.
