326 A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 



It would hardly be practical to mention in de- 

 tail all the bulls that have been used. Among the 

 valuable ones was Scottish Viceroy. He was by 

 Lavender Viceroy, mentioned above, and out of 

 Pride of Orchard Farm B 15th by Secret 

 Barmpton. This line of breeding is now very 

 popular in the herds of W. A. Better idge and 

 Bellows Bros. Scottish Viceroy was directly 

 descended from some of America's best Short- 

 horns including Lavender Viscount, Baron 

 Lavender 2d and imp. Baron Victor. Choice 

 Collynie, used with success, represented on bis 

 sire's side imp. Collynie and Choice Goods. He 

 was out of the excellent cow Wistful (see H. M. 

 Hill sketch) giving him another cross to Collynie 

 and through Royal Knight to imp. Princess 

 Alice, one of the country's greatest cows. Secret 

 Baron, used until recently, was by Snowstorm, 

 the best known western son of Snowf lake, sire of 

 Ringmaster, three times International grand 

 champion. Secret Baron sired a splendid lot of 

 stock and he was perhaps the best known of the 

 Gaddis bulls. The bull now used is Challenger's 

 Knight by Dale's Challenger by Double Dale, 

 one of the most noted of Avondale's sons. His 

 dam is White Marigold by imp. Crescent Knight 

 out of imp. Scotch Marigold. He is a good young 

 bull from the very choicest ancestry.
