 In file space allotted I can not tell of all the 

 ,i>'ood cows. The thi'ee-yeai-old Last Rose comes 

 from H. II. Ku])per. She is l).y imp. Scottish 

 Sentinel out of a daughter of im]\ Strowan Star, 

 second dam liy Bar(ui Kear 2d. An outstanding 

 cow is the r(.ian, INIaxwalton Lavender 2d by 

 Avondale aud out of imp. Lavender Bloom by 

 Silver Plate, second dam by Roan Robin. This 

 cow is a full sister to the famous Carpenter & 

 Ross sire, Maxwalton Renowm. In the herd is a. 

 daughter of Maxwalton Lavender 2d l)y Max- 

 walton Revolution, that is very promising and 

 lejtrese'iting, as slie does, an extreme concentra- 

 tion of Avondale l:)lood, she may 2)rove exceptio]]- 

 ally valualile. Villager's Baron 4th by imj). Vil-

 ess, cari'ies near the top the blood of imp. Cup- 

 bearer, Amei'ica 's chami-jion bull. Wayside Lav-

 den 6th by Baron Pride 275479 is not only a good 

 cow but she raised and suckled a calf good

 State Fair in 1919. This calf was sold to M. R.
