Report on the Exhibition of Live-Stock at Newcastle. 543 
was purchased in the auction-ring for 215 guineas when nearly 
ten years old ; and on the dam's side he comes from the 
famous " Norfolk Duke " strain, which has produced many 
prize winners, and excellent milking cows. Mr. W. A. 
Tyssen-Amherst, M.P., of Didlington Hall, took the second 
prize with another descendant of the " Dayy " stock, namely, 
" Didlington Dayyson 2nd " (657), got by " Dayyson 12th, 
and out of " Dayy 24:th," a well-known prize cow. 
Only three \ earling Bulls were entered. Mr. John Hammond, 
of Bale, Dereham, came first here with " Dayyson 26th ; " a yery 
nice straight little bull of his own breeding, first winner at the 
Norfolk Show. The Duke of Hamilton followed with " The 
Prince," a pretty little youngster tracing from the " Bettenham " 
strain. 
The Class of Cows was well filled with six good animals, 
one of the seven stalls being empty. The first prize here went 
to Mr. Tyssen-Amherst for " Emblem," a yery well-shaped 
cow, just a little weak in the loin and sharp in the hooks : bred 
by himself, and got by the 215-guinea bull " Dayyson 3rd " (48). 
She is only three years old, and was first amongst two-year-olds 
at the Norwich Royal last year. Mr. John Hammond had a 
very good second in " Dayy 44th," got by " Dayyson 7th "(476). 
Eight Two-year Heifers made up a fairly strong class. Mr. 
John Hammond had an easy enough winner here in " Dayy 
64th," thick, deep, handsome, and w^ll-deyeloped, both in the 
top and underline ; bred by himself, and got by " Roland " 
(73y). The second prize went to Mr. Colman for Silent 
Belle," a small but promising " Silence ' heifer of nice quality, 
bred by himself, and got by " Haman " (499). 
Fiye good Yearling Heifers were shown, and they all received 
tickets. Mr. Colman's first-prize winner is " Midget," quite 
a little gem ; bred by himself from the same foundation as 
" Don Carlos." Mr. John Hammond's second is still another 
" Davy " — " Davy 73rd," a sweet little heifer by " Davyson 
18th." The reserve ticket went to the Aylesbury Dairy Com- 
pany for " Curzon Caroline 2nd," a very nice promising heifer, 
bred by its owners, and got by "Lancer" (G89), a son of the 
200-guinea bull " Falstaff," and from a strain which can be 
traced back to cattle on the Elmham property 120 years ago. 
Report of Judges of Red Polled Cattle. 
Considering the distance from home, the Eed Polls were well represented 
in most of the Classes. There were only two absentees. The Old Bull Class 
contained two or three magnificent animals, the first-prize bull being a grand 
specimen of the breed. 
The Teurling Class compared very unfavourably with the Old Class.
