PRINCE GELSCHE WALKER 



Much serious thought and study was devoted to the selection of a proven 

 sire to place at the head of our herd. It took some time to find a bull that 

 would meet all the requirements, namely: proven prepotency, type and in- 

 dividuality, size and vigor, and, above all, inherited transmitting ability in 

 every line of his pedigree. In PRINCE GELSCHE WALKER, No. 81663 

 H. F. H. B., the management has realized its fondest hopes and ambitions. 

 He possesses that combination of breeding, individuality, and the production 

 of his daughters, which stamp him as one of the greatest young sires of the 

 Holstein breed, commanding the highest price ever paid for a bull west of the 

 Mississippi River. Through sheer merit, and without any particular effort 

 to push him forward, PRINCE GELSCHE WALKER has commanded and 

 received the attention of Holstein breeders wherever A. R. O. records are known. 

 He is already the sire of thirteen A. R. O. daughters, including three California 

 record holders, and his sons head some of the best herds in the West, having 

 been sold at record prices. 



PRINCE GELSCHE WALKER'S dam, together with her dam and grand- 

 dam, is the only instance in the world of three direct generations of 30-pound 

 cows each with 30-day records in excess of 125 pounds butter, and the only 

 instance in which two 30-pound cows appear in the third generation . 



His dam, both grand-dams and two of his great grand-dams are all 30- 

 pound cows, averaging 31.65 pounds of butter in seven days. Eight of his 

 fifteen nearest dams, and twelve of his fifteen nearest sires, have produced one 

 or more 30-pound daughters. 



The dam of PRINCE GELSCHE WALKER and the dam of KING OF 

 THE BLACK AND WHITES are from the same cow, and are sired by half- 

 brothers. They are the only two 30-pound sisters with a 30-pound dam, and 

 30-poimd dam's dam.
