Shorthorns. — There were ten classes, the prizes in three of 
which were provided by the Shorthorn Society, who also 
offered the usual Champion prizes and prizes for the breeders 
of the first prize animals in Classes 68 to 76. 
Class 68, for three and four-year-old bulls, contained 
twenty-four entries, and produced the Champion in Mr. 
Robert Taylor’s Royal Emblem , “ a remarkably robust, level, 
and heavy-fleshed animal.” The second prize winner in this 
class, Mr. A. J. Marshall’s Roan Conqueror , was also Reserve 
Number for the Championship. Class 69 had forty-five 
entries, and was as a whole the best class of bulls, comprising, 
a large number of animals of considerable merit. The first 
prize animal, Mr. J. Deane Willis’s Daynton Brave Archer , 
is an “ uncommonly level beast, very stylish, walks well, 
and full of character.” This animal was sold for export to 
Argentina at the price of 1,000 guineas. 
Class 70 attracted sixty entries, but fifteen were absent, 
and the majority of the animals present were of an inferior 
character. The first prize animal, Lord Polwarth’s British 
Renown , was a “ thick, sliort-legged one, with a good masculine 
head, showing good breeding and good flesh.” The second 
prize animal, Mr. Willis’s Orphan Chief , is “ a very promising 
beast, but wants time to develop.” 
The Female Classes were well filled, and the Judge reports 
that the Society is to be very highly congratulated on the
