THE BOOK OF LIVE STOCK CHAMPIONS. 



SHORTHORN HEIFER — MISSJE, 165. MISSIE, 16.5, was a 

 phenomenal yearling, and her death, which happened before maturity, 

 was a matter of great regret in the Shorthorn breeding fraternity. 

 She was younger, but of the same character as Ruberta, and contested 

 honors with her. MISSIE was a rich roan of beautiful finish, shapely 

 feminine outlines, wide and level of back, with well-filled ciuarters and 

 deeply-fleshed thighs — a model Shorthorn.
