SHORTHORN BULL SPLENDOR. 
The shorthorn bull, Splendor, (calved Sept. 
1837, bred by Mr. Thos. Weddle, dam Beauty, 
sire Charles C. H. B. (1,816), both imported by 
Mr. Weddle,) is an animal of great constitution, 
and many good points. The cut below is a 
fair outline, but of course cannot show his 
Splendor has, without doubt, served more 
common cows than any other bull in the state. 
He invariably stamps upon his get his many 
good qualities (often superior in general ap¬ 
pearance). His steers are good workers, and 
his cows choice milkers, both in quantity and 
quality. He has been kept most of his life in 
great width of hind quarter. His coat and hand¬ 
ling is first rate, having that soft, velvety feel, 
which is so desirable in all shorthorns. He is 
of a remarkably mild and gentle temper, yet, 
still retains all the fire and vigor of youth, and 
weighs, in very moderate condition, 2,200 pounds. 
Livingston County, N. Y. The reader is re¬ 
spectfully referred to any drover or stock 
raiser from that section of the state for further 
particulars in regard to his qualities, and the 
superiority of his progeny. John R. Page,
