ANGLESEY BREEa 



kindly — the flesh and fat are laid equally over them — the beef is 

 beautifully marbled, and they yield a more than average quantity of 

 milk. They are fattened to perfection at five years old, but not often 

 at an earlier age : and will become sufficiently bulky on the good 

 pastures of the vale without any artificial food. 



GLAMORGAN COW. 



The cut is the portrait, and gives a faithful representation of the 

 present improved breed of Glamorgan dairy-cattle. The average 

 quantity of milk given by the cow is" about sixteen quarts per day. 



Although we place the cattle of North Wales as " middle-horns,'* 

 we confess that we are a little approaching to the next division, *' the 

 long-horns." There is, however, a great deal of the character of 

 " the middle-horns " about them, and marking theh common origin. 



THE ANGLESEY CATTLE. 



The Anglesey cattle are small and black, with moderate bone, 

 deep chest, rather too heavy shoulders, enormous dewlap, round 

 barrel, high and spreading haunches, the face flat, the horns long, 

 and, characteristic of the breed with which we will still venture to 

 class them, almost invariably turning upward. The hair is apparently 

 coarse, but the hide is mellow : they are hardy, easy to rear, and 

 v>^ell-disposed to fatten when transplanted to better pasture than 

 their native isle aff'ords.
