SHOItTHOKX HERDS OF KNOLAND. 20'] 



Lythall's sale, and having a dash of the famous Telemachus blood, 

 thiough her grandshe; Lads' Godiva, her calf, by the 'Rev. P. 

 Graham's Turncroft Cherry Duke 2nd 45706, is very promising. 

 Passing to tha field across the road, we have Alice, by Lucky Boy 

 49998 (a son of Alma 15th), her sisters, Ina, and Maggie, fiom 

 Alma 16th ; Princess Beatrice, and Lucky Girl, out of the older 

 sister ; with the exception of Alice, and Ina, the latter being by the 

 prize winning Kirklevington Lord 4500-3, the rest ate by Baron 

 Winsome 10th 45951, bred at Holker, and of the five heifers we 

 prefer the red and white Lucky Girl. 



Mr. Bobbins, of The Hollies, near Kenilvvorth, farms seven 

 hundred ac^es of land, about four miles distant from the town, 

 wheie for a period extending into the teens of years, he has been a 

 breeder of pedigree cattle, his first put chase of note being Lady 

 Waterloo llth, when 13 years old, and the red and white cow calf 

 by her side, sold after Sir W. H. Salt's herd in 1876 ; five yeais later, 

 with the exception of thiee or four females, the entire heid was 

 dispersed along with Mr. Wirm's, and Mr. Hauler's. The two young 

 Wateiloos then retained, have increased to seven in number of the 

 female line, in addition to GivendoJe Waterloo, doing duty at one 

 of Mr. Bobbins' farms. Lady Waterloo 13th, a daughter of the 

 Earl of Bective's Duke Dentsdale 33561, a grand massive cow, has 

 not long given birth to the youngest born, Lady Waterloo 19th, by 

 64th Duke of Oxford 49471, purchased at Birmingham, he has been 

 lately used by Mr. Bobbins, and the calf is a beautiful roan, altho' 

 the colours, were originally a not very taking yellow red, mixed with 

 white, but the owner appears to have had the good judgement to 

 part with it, and substitute a good red or roan by judicious selection 

 of colours in sires, as he has but one of the snuff coloured ones 

 remaining, and that arises through the grandsire on the sires side 

 being Ninth Duke of Geneva. In addition to the Oxford bull 

 before mentioned, the males used by Mr. Bobbins have been of the 

 Kirklevington, and Darlington tribes, and as well as attending to 

 the colour, we believe it is Mr. Bobbins' intention to keep the 

 Waterloo tribe together, until he obtains a choice herd of this
