236 EXISTING SCOTCH HERDS. 



old heifers at 40 each, and a bull calf from Cowslip by 

 Elcho at 40, all to Hon. M. H. Cochrane for shipment to 

 Canada, and later in the year Mr Beattie purchased from 

 Mr Cochrane Mina Julia and Cowslip at 80 guineas each. 

 The bull Elcho was sold to Lord Airlie for 84. 

 i; Among the prizes won by the Glands herd we may note 

 the following: First at Kilburn for one-year-old bulls, 

 with Bombastes 1548 ; third at the Highland Society's 

 show at Perth for one-year-old heifers with Queen Mary 

 1st 3312 ; fourth for two-year-old bulls at Kelso and 

 Carlisle with Bombastes ; third for one-year-old bulls at 

 Kelso with Ensign 1656 ; first for one-year-old heifers at 

 Stirling with Sybil 4th 4326 ; and second for one-year-old 

 bulls with Bismarck 2nd. The herd, it will be seen, has 

 been gathered together from the best sources, and under 

 Mr Ealston's care it has already acquired a high reputation, 

 the selections have been judiciously made, and the home 

 management doing full justice to the fine material collected.
