Class 29. Caics above ^-years old. — Fifteen in number, which, 
with the exception of the chosen few, would scarcely warrant 
high praise in comparison with the same class in former years ; 
nor did the judgment of the " Bench" in the disposition of the 
awards go unchallenged, for doctors even of high repute not 
unfrequently differ in matters so subtle : Mr. Game's " Lady 
Lavinia " wresting from the beautiful '• Queene of Rosalea " the 
first position and placing her second, whilst Mr. How's fine cow, 
" Lady Anne," was placed third. Mr. Game being further suc- 
cessful in obtaining the reserve number with a high commendation 
for his cow, " Pride of the Heath." " Lady Lavinia " a heavy- 
fleshed and square-looking animal, has improved since her appear- 
ance at Leicester, where as a yearling she scored no honours. 
Class 30. Heifers in milk or in calf. — These also numbered 
15, but there were none of remarkable superiority, Mr. Mumford's 
"Camilla" being placed first, and Mr. Eastwood's very nice 
heifer, " Double Butterfly 3rd," second ; and Mr. Stratton's 
" Peeress " following in the third place. The reserve number 
and high commendation went to Mr. How's "Windsor's But- 
terfly." 
Class 31. Yearling Heifers. — These were the pride of the 
Show and in large force, numbering 31 animals, presenting a 
charming and interesting sight to all lovers of this favourite tribe. 
Here the Judges had their work cut out for them, and with much 
patience and care they performed their arduous duty. Mr, 
Mcintosh's grand heifer, " Lady Knightley 2nd," a rich and 
beautiful roan by "Third Duke of Geneva," unquestionably 
commanded the first place; Mr. Dudding's "Countess of Yar- 
borough " coming second, Mr. How's " Vesper Queen " third ; 
the reserve number and high commendation fell to Mr. Stratton's 
" Flower Girl," the next degree of merit falling equally to three 
others. 
Class 32. Heifer Calves. — These formed but a somewhat 
indifferent class, although 19 made their appearance in the ring. 
Merit was limited to but few. Colonel Towneley's smart and 
richly coated " Baron Oxford's Duchess " being placed first.
