534 A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 



for several years. His dam is by Gallant Knight's 

 Heir by Gallant Knight and his second dam is 

 by Barmpton Knight. Bulls bred as this one 

 can hardly help being first-class sires. 



C. G, Williams, Lyndon. Mr. Williams made 

 his start in February 1919 in the purchase of 

 five females from the Stephenson herd in Chase 

 county. These cattle are not only individuals 

 of approved type for profitable farm cattle 

 but their ancestry which is a blending of 

 Scotch and American blood has given good re- 

 sults as it almost always does. The bull in use 

 came from Barrett & Land and is a grandson of 

 Prince Valentine 4th with Pringle's Sir Knight 

 and the Potts bred Lavender King 3d strongly 

 represented on his dam's side. These three bulls 

 did service in three excellent Kansas herds. 

 Prince Valentine 4th was owned by Tomsons, 

 Sir Knight by Andrew Pringle and Lavender 

 King 3d by D. K. Kellerman & Son. 



A. A. Adams, Osage City. Mr. Adams has a 

 pleasant location near town where he can grow 

 alfalfa, watch the Shorthorns and enjoy life. A 

 year ago he bought eight females from H. H. 

 Churchill. They are the practical kind and show 

 milking quality, the kind that when properly 

 mated always give satisfactory results. A num- 

 ber of them are by the excellent Saunders bred 

 Marquis Cumberland by Cumberland's Best, a 

 bull of outstanding character and ancestry. Cows
