A HISTORY OF SHORTHORNS IN KANSAS 225 



Hampton's Spicy by Hampton's Successor, one 

 of the really good sons of Hampton's Best, 

 brought in the Merry Hampton blood and was a 

 splendid sire. Imp. Gallant Favorite, an Ander- 

 son bred son of Dunglass Favorite, was used for 

 a time and left a lot of excellent young things. 

 Most of the cows now on the farm are l)red to 

 Bapton Charm, a good, big, smooth son of imj^. 

 Bapton Corporal and imp. Millcraie Costly Belle 

 and highly satisfactory results are anticipated 

 from this cross. A young bull on the farm that is 

 being watched with interest is Gallant Favor. He 

 is a son of imp. Gallant Favorite and imp. 

 Beauty's Pride 2d, an Anderson bred cow by 

 Proud Brigadier 609477. He is almost a year 

 old, too young to have certain judgment passed 

 on him, l)ut he is very smooth and has great 

 dej^th of body with fine head and neck. If he 

 fills out well, as he might reasonal^ly be expected 

 to do, he should be as worthy as any of his pre- 

 decessors. Valuable additions were made by pur- 

 chase of some of the best cattle in the offering at 

 the leading 1920 sales, which puts the Gigstad 

 herd in the front ranks. 



H. A. MeLenon, Effingham.* — Mr. McLenon 

 had been with good grade Shorthorns all his life 

 and a few years ago he decided to put in pure 

 breds instead of grades. He has exceptional 

 pasture conditions with plenty of forage of 



Ship on Mo. Paf. or Rock Islaml.
