A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 305 



COFPEY COUNTY 



C. H. White, Burlington, Mr. White began 

 operations in 1906 and for the last ten years he 

 has been one of the leading breeders in southeast

 this farm. Mr. White maintained a show herd 

 from 1911 to 1913 and exhibited successfully at

 fairs including Topeka, winning well in both 

 open and state classes. He also showed at the 

 American Royal with some of his entries well in 

 the money.

 high-class show bull by Lord Mayor out of Forest 

 Daisy, own sister to the dam of New Year's 

 Delight, American Royal grand champion and 

 International junior champion. Roan Heather 

 was third in her class at Lincoln and Topeka.

 the best Shorthorn cows of her day, Charm's

 Rosedale Violet 9th. Since Scotland's Charm
