 well grown, and while not fitted, is shown in 

 si^lendid farm condition. He has contributed tri 

 the Southeast Kansas sales at Ijoth Coffeyville 

 and Independence and at the fall show at Inde- 

 pendence in 1919 his entries were good winners.

 son of the grand champion AYliitehall Rosedale
