Just the animals he wanted, and at
practically no expense to the Uni-
versity. Knowing that many of the
breeders in the province were nOt in-
clined for various reasons, to fit
their cattle and show them at the
leading shows in a mann. r to do
them jueilre. he suggested tlipt. the
various breeders in the province
should gise one of their ralves to
the University. and the University
would take the necessary step,' to
fit the animals for show 'pummel'.
The plan was dilly submitted to the
Alberta !hairdo' Association at
their annual convention lasit year,
• and not only received the approval
of the Association, but the in-
dividual members offered to allow
Professor Dowell to select what he

herds.
This offer waa immediately taken
advantage of by Profeasor Dowell
tng be visited the twenty-four
breeders in various parts of the
province and selected fourteen
calves. To\ these were afterwards
added two yo)o.eog Shorthorns from
the University own herd.
Moat of thesealves were taken
direct from the ra go, hut they have
been well cared for ever since. They
came to tbe Unlverelty as sucklings
and nuree cows had, of course, to be
provided for them. It the University
had been able to take car* of a large
number of animals these would have
easily have been forthcoming. "The
greatest difficulty we have had",
says Professor Dowell, "has not been
In securing these animals, but In re-
fusing the many good_antmala other
breeders have offered! Why a good
many breeders ictually urged the
University to send a representative
to their farms, lad take away the
best of their caned."
It is now more than twelve months
since these calvee were brought to
the Alberta University farm at Ed-
monton and they have all developed
into strong uniform looking animals,
each showing markedly the cher-
arteristire of his breed. For two
seasons theme fine animals have as -

of his own work, he said he had never yet

a good showing in regard to payment of

Mr. W. H Robertson. from the prem

with the council and observed that the
people owe the council a vote of thanks
for kinking after the town's affairs. If
anything goes wrong the fault is with
