A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 545 



herd. Violet Search 3d by Searchlight and out of 

 Violet Bloom by Golden Bloom came from Mr. 

 Nevius' herd. Both Red Laddie and Violet 

 Search 3d left splendid stock. The present bull 

 is Royal Type by Cumberland Type, dam by 

 Burwood Royal, second dam by King Marengo, 

 a son of King Champion out of imp. Lady Doug- 

 las followed by Cumberland's Last and Fitz 

 Eustace. He looks worthy of his ancestry and 

 should prove valuable. 



F. D. White, Ada. Mr. White bought three 

 cows in 1916 and he now has a good start. These 

 cows were all by Victor Chief 236981, a T. K. 

 Tomson & Sons bred bull by Dictator out of 

 Elder Lawn Victoria by Gallant Knight, second 

 dam, Victoria of Maple Hill, the dam of Gallant 

 Knight's Heir. When we consider that Dictator 

 was own brother to Forest Daisy 2d, dam of the 

 International grand champion, New Year's De- 

 light, we get an idea of the foundation Mr. 

 White laid. The bull in use is by Red Laddie, 

 for one season at the head of the Stodder show 

 herd, a state fair prize winner by Captain 

 Archer, own brother to Sweet Mistletoe, dam of 

 Lespedeza Collynie, the 1919 International grand 

 champion.
