A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 399 



Hero and imp. Lady of the Meadow followed by 

 two crosses of imp. Thistletop. Later a nice- 

 ly bred cow from J. C. Stone was added 

 and several of her descendants are now on the 

 farm. 



Well bred bulls have been used. An extra 

 good one was Modern Scotchman by imp. Ma- 

 genta, out of Victoria Butterfly by Victoria 

 Baron. Another was Orange Cumberland by 

 Dale's Cumberland out of a Lavender Viceroy 

 dam. This bull stood third as a calf in a strong 

 ring at the American Royal. The present herd 

 bull was secured at the 1919 Ogden sale. He 

 is a roan almost a year old and looks like the 

 making of a good one. His sire Type's Lord is 

 by Cumberland's Type out of a dam by Cumber- 

 land's Last. He is out of a cow by imp. Mu- 

 tineer and she is a daughter of imp. Bapton 

 Magnet by Silver Plate. Mr. Humphrey's farm 

 is a rich one with much alfalfa land. It is 

 located where Shorthorns have no active compe- 

 tition and where all conditions favor their best 

 development. 



J. W. Waynant, Holton. There are few be- 

 ginners who are as discriminating in their pur- 

 chases and who are giving their cattle such 

 care as is Mr. Waynant. His farm is splendidly 

 located with pastures, fine water and soil that 

 will grow any kind of forage. Since proper feed- 

 ing and care go with animal husbandry here
