HERD NOTICES 241 



Knight of Collynie (112,229), the half-brother of 

 Cupbearer, and the 2700 gs. dark roan Collynie 

 Lavender King (141,709), by Max of Cluny (112,487), 

 from a Knight of Collynie cow, have great oppor- 

 tunities in Mr Stewart's herd. 



The Millhills herd's long list of prizes cannot be 

 noted in detail. Reference can only be made to a 

 few of the principal honours. In 1912 Scottish 

 Grace, bred in the herd and exhibited by the Earl 

 of Rosebery, won the female championship at Smith - 

 field and the reserve for the championship of the 

 show. Four years later Roan Grace took the Scottish 

 National championship. The Perth Show of young 

 bulls provides one of the severest tests in the world, 

 and the winning of the group prize is rightly regarded 

 as a high -class distinction. Mr Stewart won the 

 group prize in 1905, 1914, 1916, 1918, and his repre- 

 sentatives won in 1920. In 1905 he was second in 

 both classes; in 1914 he won the firsts; in 1916 he 

 took second in juniors; in 1918 he carried off first 

 and second in the April class with Marigold and 

 Queen of Rothes, sons of Cupbearer. Pride of 

 Millhills, the class winner, a blocky roan of won- 

 derful development for his age, further won the 

 Maclennan Cup as best bull in the show, and 

 was sold to Mr F. B. Wilkinson for export to the 

 Argentine at 3100 gs. In 1920 the very massive 

 red roan Clipper bull, Millhills Comet, by Cupbearer, 

 took the championship, and in the sale ring he made 

 the record price of 6600 gs., his buyer being Mr Elliot, 

 Guelph, Ontario.
