240 CATTLE. 



I. In BREED, they are of the middl£- 

 HORNED Ciafs. There are numberlefs in-

 fectly refembhng the Breed of Hereford- 

 shire, in frame, colour, and horn, as not 

 to be dillinguifhable from that celebrated 

 Breed ; except in the greater cleannefs of 

 the head and fore quarters ; and except in 

 the inferiority of fize. The Cattle of 

 Devonihire refemble thofe of Sussex ; 

 except in their greater fymmetry of frame, 

 and their being much cleaner in the fore- 

 end, and every where freer from offal, than 

 the ordinary Breed of SulTex. The Devon- 

 fhire Cattle refem^ble very much, in color, 

 horn, cleannefs, and fymmetry of frame, a 

 few of the more perfed: individuals of the 

 native Cattle of Norfolk ; but exceed 

 them greatly in point of fize. They are a 

 mean between the Norfolk and the Here- 

 fordfliire j fome individuals approaching 

 towards the former, others towards the lat- 

 ter ; but, taken in general throughout the 

 county, they approach much nearer the 

 Herefordfnire than the Norfolk, v/ith ref- 

 pedt to fize : being fimilar, in this and 



other
