THE GALLOWAY 233 



as yearlings past they can be made to weigh from 1000 to 1200 

 pounds; at two, 1200 to 1400; at three, from 1400 to 1600. 

 Typical bulls will weigh about 1800 to 1900 pounds, and cows 

 1 200 to 1 300 pounds. 



The distribution of the Galloway is mainly in Scotland and 

 America. The breed is found in small herds as a rule, east of the 

 Mississippi, though some of the best-known herds are in Indiana 

 and Illinois. Galloways are found on the ranges and farms all 

 over the far West, and especially in the Canadian Northwest. Im- 

 portant herds are also found in Missouri, Iowa, and Minnesota. 



American improvers of the Galloway of special note are Brook- 

 side Farm, Indiana; O. H. Swigart and Marion Parr, Illinois; 

 Wavertree Farm and N. P. Clarke, Minnesota ; C. N. Moody, 

 Missouri; E. H. White, Iowa; and John and David McCrae, 

 Canada. These firms have brought the breed most promi- 

 nently before the public and have bred or imported some of 

 the best specimens of Galloways to be found in Scotland. 



Galloway bulls' of distinction that have materially helped to 

 give fame to the breed in more recent times are Camp Follower 

 (5042), Pathfinder 3d (5991), Scottish Standard (6488) 15221, 

 Kekionga (2894) 2894, Druid of Castlemilk (6159) 17054, King 

 Hensol 9967, Camp Follower of Stepford (7476), and Worthy 3d 

 (7762) 21228. 



The prices derived for Galloways do not average high, yet, in 

 view of the lack of knowledge of the breed, they make a fair 

 showing. A summary of 740 animals sold at auction from 1892 

 to 1 90 1 inclusive, published by the Kansas Board of Agriculture, 

 shows an average of ;^i26.75 per head for both sexes, or $141.43 

 for 233 bulls and ;gi 10.51 for 318 cows.
