.1. a. IvoMjiiis (t Son bull, Golden DutclDiiaii. 



One of the bulls used was Magnet Searchlight 

 by Searchlight out of a r.ow by Prince l^avonia, 

 the two bulls that established G. S. Nevius as a 

 breeder. The second dam of Magnet Searchlight 

 <^ame through im}). Golden Gem 2d and Lord

 New Year's Emblem, bred by T. J. Dawe & Son, 

 by Diamond Emblem, theii- show Indl l:)y Dia- 

 mond Goods out of a dam by imj). Collyihe. New 

 Year's Emblem's dam is Sobriety 8th b}' imp. 

 Strowan Stai- out of imp. Sobriety 2d. (See 

 Dawe sketch.) This l)ull is not only a good in- 

 dividual but it will be noted he is of great an- 

 t-estry and he is proving a tine breeder. 



The Libel herd, as a whole, im2)ressed me 

 very favoi'ably, not only as consisting of a hjt of 

 vahud)le cattle, but also because sun'ouiuling 

 eonditions indicated almost certain su(-ccss. 



E. A. Myers, Troy.— Doth Mr. and Mrs. Myers 

 know good Shorthorns and a visit with them con- 

 vinced me that they undej'stood how to handle 

 tluiir cattle. Mrs. Myers is a daughtei' of T. J. 

 Daw(.' and is as much interested in Shorthoj-ns as 

 any othei' meinber of the Dawe family. The 

 start was made two _years ago ])y the ])ui-cliase of 

 five; desii-able rows fi'om 1 he Dawe herd and they 

 now have f i I'teeu females. Autmnn Queen Rose
