HERD NOTICES 143 



Augusta, Nonpareil, Brawith Bud, Goldie, and Broad- 

 hooks families. The principal stock bull is Cluny 

 Eegent (135,789), a short-legged blood-red by Hindley 

 Crown (126,037), sire of the Perth Spring Show 

 champion of 1919, for which Mr William Duthie paid 

 4000 gs. Cluny Regent's dam was a Dainty cow by 

 Dunglass Commodore (105,356), sire of Mr Duthie's 

 noted stock bull Max of Cluny (112,487). Mr Alex- 

 ander has one of the best white bulls to be seen 

 anywhere in the Nonpareil Naemoor Comet by Edg- 

 cote Masterpiece. This beautiful yearling was not 

 in his best form when shown at Perth, where he 

 stood fifth, and sold for 1050 gs. 



Mr Moubray Alexander, the present owner and 

 real builder-up of the herd, has been actively engaged 

 in the export business for a good many years. His 

 intention is to increase the herd on the female side. 

 He has now a first-class basis. His Avernes are 

 about the best in his possession, but the Princess 

 Royals and Lavenders have done remarkably well. 

 A few Shorthorns may be wintered at Mains of 

 Cambus in coming years, but Glenochil Farm, to 

 which the cattle were recently transferred, is to be 

 the real home of the breeding and export stock. 

 Ranges of bull-boxes will probably be erected there 

 in the near future, and there are possibilities of 

 extensions in cropping and grazing space. New- 

 biggin is about five minutes' walk from Mains of 

 Cambus steading and Cambus railway station, and 

 Glenochil is near Menstrie station. Alloa is a little 

 to the south-east of both farms.
