A HISTORY OF SHORTnOENS IN KANSAS 233 



five nicely bred licifers fv(.)ui R. C. Thomas. In 

 1906 an additional purchase was made from W. 

 W. Brown. Ilarnion.y's Knight, 1>red by T. P. 

 Babst & Sons, a son of the high priced Knight's 

 Valentine and out of a dam by Laird of Linwood, 

 was the bull in early service. Later Scottish 

 Minstrel hy imp. Scotch Mist was used. Free use 

 was also made of the Glancy l)idls. (See Glancy 

 sketch. ) 



A sijlendidl>- bred aged IjuII is now in service, 

 A True Cumberland 385024, son ..f True Cum- 

 berland 2d, l)y Ciun])erland's Last. His dam is 

 a, daughter (.>f imj). Clun\' Flora 79th by Eoyal 

 Pride. He is attractive even in quite moderate 

 flesh as I sa,w him, with fine head and neck, good 

 (juartej's, strong Liin and very deej) body on short 

 legs. A little optnmess and coarseness of shoulder 

 are apparent, n(jt a serious fault in an old and 

 neglected Inill. His calves look promising though 

 the hei'd has not been kept for best development 

 and these calves, coming through the line of 

 descent they do, should be jDaying propositions. 

 There are some good, strong cows here 

 and only a little improvement in handling 

 is needed.
