Shorthorns of Quality at Auction The Farmers' Advocate of last week says: James Cowan of Seaforth, Ont., for many years one of the leading breed- ers of Scotch Shorthorns in Western Ontario, has sold his farm and is going west, and on Thursday, Mar 6th, at the farm, "Fairview," one Ile from the G. T. R. station, at S forth, will hold a dispersion sale of s entire herd numbering 33 head of i ported cows, their daughters and and -daughters, and the stock bul yalist, a massive 2,450 pound son tI great sire, Blood Royal, imported, red by William Duth- ie, dam also imported. A Marr Clara, he is a roan five years old, of immense thickness of flesh, evenly distributed, level in his lines, and possessing great character. Properly fitted, no bull could afford to give him many points and win over him. He is safe, act':Ne ann sure. The entire lot is essentially :sigh class. Not many herds in this province can show so much quality or uniformity. They are all in nice condition, and all are right in every particular, in fact, Mr. Cowan has never had a non -breed- er in all the years he has been breeding. This of itself is a remarkable testimony of the health of the herd, and should carry big weight with anyone wanting breeding Shorthorns, while with this the general high-class character of the herd will not be a disappointment to visitors to the sale.
