The Derby Show , 1906. 
Welsh Cattle. — Taken as a whole the entries were scarcely 
up to the usual standard. Five bulls competed in Class 127, 
for old bulls. The competition was very close for the first 
position between Messrs. Davies, Thomas & Howells’ Duke 
of Connaught (1049) and Mr. Greaves’ The Czar (1050), a 
winner on previous occasions. In Class 128 (yearling bulls), 
the two animals that competed were both “ nice sappy young 
bulls, brimful of quality,” the winner eventually taking the 
Champion against the old bull winner in the previous class. 
In the heifer class (130), in which six animal^ competed, 
No. 1062, a particularly nice level heifer, of undoubted quality, 
was an easy winner. 
Red Polled. — These numbered forty-nine entries, which, as 
a whole, were fairly representative of the breed, the first prize 
bull (No. 1067) in Class 131 being an exceptionally good 
specimen. 
Aberdeen Angus. — The Judge reports that the practice of 
permitting the ages of these animals to be calculated from 
December 1 allowed many more representatives of the breed 
to be entered, sixty-five competing in the six classes. The 
winner (No. 1157) in Class 141 (cows or heifers, in-milk, 
calved before December 1, 1903), a very good specimen of the 
breed, afterwards received the English Aberdeen Angus Cattle 
Association’s Gold Medal. 
Galloways. — The exhibits numbered twenty-one, and w T ere, 
on the wdiole, very good. In Class 144, the first prize winner 
(No. 1191) was a very thick, well-fleshed bull, but rather 
undersized. No. 1200, the first prize animal in Class 145, 
was a “ very thick stylish bull with a capital coat.” Class 146 
(cows in-milk) contained only three exhibits. The first was 
exceptionally good, and though shown in low condition, w T as 
quite fat enough for breeding purposes. 
Highlands. — There were only two animals exhibited, both 
in the female section. 
Ayrshires. — Only seven animals of this breed were exhibited. 
The Judge stated that the four bulls were the best he had ever 
seen. The three cows shown were also good specimens. 
Jerseys. — The bulls were a representative display of the 
breed, the old bull class being very good ; the classes for the 
younger bulls contained animals of merit. The cows w r ere 
good on the average. The Judges report that Class 153, for old 
bulls, was small, but very good. The first prize was awarded 
to Captain L. G. Gisborne, for Glorious Lad , an aged bull of 
nice quality. The second, Lady r de Rothschild’s Gallant , was 
also of good quality. Class 154. — This class was not quite up 
to the level of the older animals. Class 155. — The winner
