HERD NOTICES 177 



selection from the late Mr Gordon's herd. Marigold 

 Nymph 2nd, a massive red roan, bred by Mr Scott 

 Wyllie, and out of a darn by Cupbearer of Collynie, 

 was a Crieff and Perth winner in 1919. She cost 

 210 gs. In 1919 Mr Gardiner returned to Milton of 

 Luncarty, and bought the light roan heifer calf out of 

 the Cupbearer cow. 



The Lady Dorothy was a Mounteagle sale purchase 

 in the autumn of 1918. Good females were added at 

 the Aberdeen autumn sale of that year in Doune Char- 

 lotte Corday, a roan yearling by Doune Grand Knight 

 (130,657), and the Shethin Mysie three-year-old roan 

 Scottish Mysie, which was out of Kitty Gray, one of 

 Colonel Munro's show cows. Attending Birmingham 

 sale in November 1918, Mr Gardiner bought a Rose- 

 wood calf from Colonel H. T. Fenwick ; a Secret calf 

 at 300 gs. from Sir Herbert Leon, Bart. ; a Champion 

 of England Butterfly of Auchnacree breeding from 

 Mr William C. Hunter ; an Augusta cow from Mr 

 A. A. Gatty ; and a Princess Royal yearling by 

 Collynie Matadore (111,337) from Mr J. D. Fletcher. 

 A very fine white Goldie calf by Merry Victor 

 (116,563), from a Lancaster Royal (109,108) cow, was 

 acquired from Tulliallan at the Aberdeen October sale 

 of 1919. It will thus be seen that the busy tenant of 

 Dargill has set out on his Shorthorn course with first- 

 class foundation stock. 



Command of a high-class stock bull is always a 

 strong asset, and very specially in the case of a man 

 who is bringing diverse elements under subjection. 

 Mr Gardiner has one of the best bulls in the country
