OF THE SADDLE AND SIRLOIN CLUB 161 



the extraordinary two-year-old steer called Wabash. In 1882 

 this steer won the two-year-old championship, but was unable 

 to go to the top of the show. As a breeder and promoter, few 

 men have had a more vital influence on their chosen breed, or 

 have lived to see as secure a success as Mr. Clark has achieved 

 with and for the Hereford. From the start of the International 

 he has been prominent in cattle circles, both as an exhibitor and 

 a director. Of recent years he has been one of the two super- 

 intendents of the cattle department, paying particular attention 

 to steers and his own breed, and he has succeeded in making 

 the steer contest without parallel in the world.
