T'he Lincoln Show, 1907. 
over-fed, but had a good calf. There was not much to choose 
between the first two in Class 114-, and the third, though 
young, was a beautiful heifer. The first in Class 115, a fine 
heifer full of quality, was Female Champion (see Fig. 18). 
The second was a very nice animal, but not quite so level as 
the first. 
Devons. — The Judge reports that in the old bull class nine 
entries came into the ring, and a right good lot they were. 
The winner is a grand massive specimen of the breed, walks 
well, and afterwards won the Champion Prize for the best 
male (see Fig. 19). The second is of quite a different type, 
very straight and even, not so massive, and might walk a little 
better. The third and reserve were both good bulls, and 
would win in most cases. These four animals, the best seen 
together for some time, are of outstanding merit and did not 
give their younger competitors a chance. The younger bulls 
were not so good either in quality or numbers, not one of them 
being of extra merit. Six came out in the cow class. The 
winner was a nice typical three-year-old, with a good calf, and 
easily first. She also won the Champion for the best female 
(see Fig. 20). The second cow was rather weak in front, but 
had a good bag and calf. The younger female class produced 
ten exhibits, the first being an easy winner. The second was 
the youngest in the class, and was very even and should make 
a good cow. The third was rather weak at the tail-end. 
South Devons. — The Judge i-eports that the bull class was an 
excellent one, though small in number. In the female class 
some specially good cows and heifers were shown, several of 
which were also entered in the milking competition. 
Sussex.— Class 123 contained only two exhibits, but these 
were fine specimens. Lord of Drungewick bth, first prize and 
Champion (see Fig. 21) was a little weak over the shoulder, but 
otherwise a perfect animal. In Class 124 there was very little 
to choose between the first and second, the latter being a little 
weak behind the shoulders. The third prize bull was of very 
choice quality, with exceptionally good skin, but a little weak 
on thighs. Considering the distance from the home of the 
breed, which is unfortunately principally confined to Kent and 
Sussex, the classes were well filled with excellent animals ; 
in fact it was one of the best shows of the breed that has been 
before the public for a long time. The first prize animal in 
Class 126, Sunlight 1th, was of very nice quality, and repre- 
sentative of the breed. This cow afterwards succeeded in 
gaining the Championship (see Fig. 22). The second and third 
prize winners were good specimens of the breed. In Class 127 
Tilsden Jessie, a splendid fleshy animal, but inclined to be cock 
horned, was placed first, and was later Reserve for Champion.
