278 A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 



daughter of the noted sire, Collynie Bright Star. 

 She stood third in her class at the Perth- 

 shire show last season. She is large, smooth and 

 looks like a good breeding prospect. Kintore 

 Beauty 4th and Kintore Victoria came from 

 Sutherlands in Aberdeenshire. Their sire is 

 Cluny Prince Victor, bred by Lady Cathcart. 

 They look like the making of good breeding cows. 

 Bouquhan Bellona Princess is by the highly es- 

 teemed bull, Collynie Cupbearer, and in addition 

 to being one of the best cows of the importation, 

 she has proved a breeder of excellent stock, her 

 bull calf being one of the best on the farm. May- 

 flower Mint is a three-year-old roan, bred by 

 Robert Bruce. She is Bruce bred for ten gen- 

 erations on her dam's side and the sires were 

 bred by Bruce, Duthie, Marr, Taylor, Shepherd 

 and Cruickshank. Those who want something 

 coming from top herds all the way down should 

 be pleased with this pedigree. 



I could go on at length and tell of each of the 

 several females on the farm, but I shall do so only 

 in a general way. Some of the choicest herds 

 of Perthshire and Aberdeenshire have been 

 drawn on for these cattle. Among them are 

 those of Messrs. Butter, Drone, Strang, Syms, 

 Hunter, Jaffrey, Wilson, Major Graham Sterl- 

 ing, Robt. Bruce, Rennie, Durno, Stephen, 

 Sutherland, Campbell of Kinnellar fame and 

 Duthie, whose reputation is world-wide.
