438 A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 



quality. It includes an excellent Cruickshank 

 Butterfly cow recently purchased at a long price 

 and representative in the top crosses of Lord 

 Banff, Godwin, King of Aberdeen and Thistle- 

 top, four of America's great bulls, all connected 

 with Shorthorn breeding in Kansas. 



A. E. Townsend, Valeda. Mr. Townsend, who 

 has been handling Shorthorns for six years, 

 made a recent addition of two females to his 

 small herd and jointly with W. B. Cobb bought 

 what should prove to be a very valuable bull. He 

 is a white and has for sire Pleasant Dale 2d, fol- 

 lowed in order by Mr. Harding ? s Sultan Mine, 

 Betteridge's Lavender Viceroy, imp. Master of 

 the Eolls and Roan Gauntlet. Students of Short- 

 horn history and pedigrees will note the rich in- 

 heritance which this young fellow receives from 

 his ancestry. It is only reasonable to expect sat- 

 isfactory results from such a bull when mated 

 with the right cows and the herd is given the 

 right kind of attention. 



A. C. Braunsdorf, Parsons. The Grand View 

 Stock Farm herd is good and comes from high- 

 class ancestry. The females represent three 

 great bulls, imp. Collynie, imp. Mariner and imp. 

 Inglewood. The stock was purchased from 

 Lant Bros, in 1916 and included an excellent 

 three-year-old bull, Fashioner 7th, by Hampton 

 Primrose, son of Hampton Spray, out of Prim- 

 rose 6th, one of the best of Mr. Hanna's cows.
