A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 345 



Anoka Mildred bred by P. W. Harding, she by 

 Anoka Sultan, second dam imp. Pine Grove Mil- 

 dred llth. 



Asher & Allison, Lawrence. Mr. Asher is 

 with the Watkins bank and Mr. Allison is on the 

 farm. They own a herd of cows, a number of 

 them bred along fashionable lines, and all are of 

 acceptable breeding as indicated by a wealth of 

 ancestry. The herd includes two highly prized 

 reds purchased from Tomson Bros., one by the 

 great. Stunkel bull, Victor Orange, and her 

 daughter by Nonpareil Victor 2d, a full brother 

 to the bull sold by Tomsons for $2000 to go to 

 California. The herd is representative of such 

 bulls as Victor Orange, Star Goods, White 

 Goods, Orange Viscount, Baron Marr, Gallant 

 Knight, Archer, Barmpton Knight, Village Mar- 

 shal, Avondale, Whitehall Sultan and others of 

 merit that might be mentioned. 



The bull at the head of the herd impressed me 

 favorably. He is a two-year-old white by Max- 

 walton Rosedale, full brother to Whitehall Rose- 

 dale, grand champion at the American Royal and 

 at the biggest western shows. His dam is by imp. 

 Crescent Knight and the second dam is imp. 

 Augusta 105th. He is a big, deep-bodied fellow 

 with much natural flesh and though quite thin, 

 shows smooth. Those who demand a fancy head 

 and neck might consider these points a little 

 coarse but he has a well-shaped Shorthorn bull
