Mr. Day. 
MAXWALTON. COMMANDER 
130. Maxwalton Commander 406947, was grand champion 
bull at the 1917 International. Among the last of the illus- 
trious calves sired by the far-famed Avondale 245144, he com- 
manded a value and a breed respect almost from calfhood. He 
was dropped September 28, 1913, at Maxwalton Farms from 
the imported cow Roan Lady 36th, by Nonpareil Crown. 
Immediately following his championship he was purchased at 
the phenomenal price of $7,500 by F. A. GiLLespre & Sons, 
Tulsa, Okla., and at the dispersion of this herd in December, 
1918, was acquired by H. C. Looxapaucu, Pleasant Valley 
Farm, Watonga, Okla. Here he is successor to the famous Fair 
Acres Sultan and the entire story of his service to the Shorthorn 
breed can be written only when the next decade has gone by.
