328 SHORTHOR-N- HERDS or 



barrel, and handsome fore-quarters. Of three bull calves, a red and 

 white, out of No. 90, attracts the most notice, but all are very 

 promising, and so are a trio of heifers seen at Tregoose. 



At Budock-Vean, five miles from Falinouth, shorthorns were 

 first introduced by Mr. W. E. T. Fender in 1853, when Woodbine, 

 by Mr. Jonas Webb's Duke of York 9051, was purchased from Mr. 

 S. Bennett, in the neighbourhood of Bedford, pure bred sires have 

 since been used and at the sale of Mr. J. Tyacke's herd in 1876, 

 Sappo 2nd and Silence, with a foundation full of Mr. Stratton's 

 blood, and Lady Orchard 2nd and Lady Orchard 3rd, tracing to 

 Familiar, through her daughter Charity, by Mr. Booth's Lord Greorge 

 10439, were purchased, and their female descendants number exactly 

 fifteen each, chiefly reds and roans, full of hair and of good quality. 

 Many of their sons have been sold to dairy farmers, thus speaking 

 well for their milking qualities. In 1881, Cowslip 33rd and Roan 

 Kitty, two Master of Arts heifers, and England's King 46826, a son 

 of Royal Mowbray 42330 and England's Queen, of the Sylph tribe, 

 were bought at the Ballywalter October sale, and five animals now 

 trace to the latter. The only recent female purchase has been 

 Water Nymph 6th, from Broughton. The sires used by Mr. Fender 

 of late years in addition to England's King, have been Oscar 32007, 

 of the Familiar tribe, bred at Helston, by Mr. Tyacke; Fawsley 

 41531, also bred in the county by Mr. W. Trethewy, from one of 

 his Ruth cows, by the Killerby Croesus 30820; Monarch Gwynne 

 37103, a son of Mr. T. C. Booth's Lieutenant General 31600; 

 British Wonder 44470, an Aylesby M. of Mr. Welsted's breeding ; 

 and Star of the Forth 52212, now in service is a very good looking 

 son of Star of Braithwaite 48785 and Flower of the Allan, a 

 daughter of Flower of the Rhine, sold at the Aylesby sale, for 510gs.
