The Doncaster Meeting. 
short-legged thick-built mare, with lumpy, u^Dright, short 
shoulders, which gave her fore-end a common look." Messrs. 
Wilson's Darling, " too long and loose-made for a model 
Suffolk," was second. But for her fore-legs, Mr. Hume- 
Webster's Tlie Miller s Daughter might well have gone to the 
front. 
Agricidturol Horses. — These were rather more numerous 
than at Plymouth, and were generally of great weight and size. 
In Class 54, for geldings of any breed, foaled in 1887 or 
1888, there were seven entries from Yorkshire and four from 
other counties. Lord Wantage took the first prize. The three 
entries in Class 55, which were all present, came exclusively 
from Yorkshire, Mr. Henry Lawson's Briton being placed 
first. 
The report upon the results of the veterinary examination 
of Stallions will be found in the Appendix, page Ixxxix. 
Cattle, 
Shorthorns were in the catalogue to the number of IIG, 
which is about double the entry at Plymouth last year. Scot- 
land sent 12 entries, but only from two exhibitors; Wales 
accounted for four entries, and Ireland for one. The English

Shorthorn bulls, born in 1885, 1886, 1887, or 1888 (Class 
56), made up a fairly numerous section of moderate quality, at 
the top of which was placed Mr. Evan Jones's three-year-old 
roan Nugget. 
In a good lot of two-year-old bulls (Class 57) the m^ale 
champion was found in Lord Polwarth's Windsor Royal. 
Amongst the yearling bulls (Class 58) were several very 
promising young animals, with, however, " a tail " of moderate 
ones. Here, Mr. Willingham Fowler's Erijholme Prince Both 
received the reserve card for the champion plate. 
Cows born before 1888 (Class 59), though but a small entry, 
were all good. Lord Polwarth's Wave of Indiana was first, and 
his Wave of Loch Levcn was second. 
The three-year-old heifers (Class 60) made up a very good
