140 SHORTHORN HERDS OF ENGLAND. 



this is the strongest' tribe at Waulby. Ethel, Enchantress, and 

 Ella, three handsome young cows, would do credit to any family, 

 the last named a deep red being our particular fancy. Cassia, 

 bought from Mr. Dixon, of Caistor, has now eight representatives 

 in the female line ; whereas the Grwynnes, and what are known as 

 the Duchesses, are each seven in number, the latter passed through 

 Mr. Slye's possession before corning into Yorkshire, and have some 

 good old blood for a foundation, worth breeding from. Duchess 

 16th, an excellent dairy cow, by Lord Lathom's Oneida Prince 

 34948, is own sister to the handsome Duchess Blanche, unfor- 

 tunately given over breeding, and now in. the process of being 

 turned into beef, which if anything like the personal attrac-

 are in a prosperous state, and being of so prolific a sort will it is 

 hoped continue so. Rose of Ryedale 8th, a fine heavy fleshed cow, 

 is along with her daughter, Rydedale Rose, amongst the cows in 

 milk, which also comprise Baroness Beverley 17th, a favourite 

 tribe of Mr. Brornet's, heavily crossed with Wetherby Duke sires, 

 and the mother of a red cow calf in the boxes. Beaming Eyes 7th, 

 is a pretty Lady Worcester, once so handsome and fashionable at 

 Dunmore, and Winterfold ; probably Lady Waterloo 38th, may be 

 thought by some to be of equal value since the rise of the Waterloos 

 in public favour, the latter is the dam of Mr. Thompson's stud bull 

 Duke of Wellington 51116, a son of Lord Feversham's Prince of
