Carpenter and Ross have imported large numbers of British 

 and Scotch-bred animals, and have had exceptional averages 

 almost from the start in their public sales. Mr. Carpenter was 

 elected president of the American Shorthorn Breeders' Associa- 

 tion in 1916 and in 1919, in company with his partner, he made 

 an extensive tour of Great Britain, visiting all of the leading 

 herds and historic points of Shorthorn interest. Following this 

 trip, he and his partner laid the foundations of an Aberdeen- 

 Angus herd as well, and were highly successful on the fall show 

 circuit of 1920.
