The herd Of pure bred short-horn cattle to
be sold by W. T. Hearne, of Lees Summit,
Mo-. Thursday. May 81. next, is certainly one
of the most attractive sales that has ever
taken place in the western country. Fifty
cows and heifers and thirteen young bulls,
most all Of them descendants of Imported
Rose of Sharon. (through her two daughters.
Thames and Flora), Imported Young Mary
and Young Phyllis. A more splendid lot Of
high bred cattle, from these great familie.
cannot be found In this country, their breed.
ing is faultless. and for Individuality they are
unexcelled. Mr.. Hearne Is one of our oldes,
and best breeders. and the two last years hi
lived In Kentucky his herd sold each year a
the highest average. 10 1880 ut $500, and tn,
| closing out sale In October 1881. at 1925, ant
l honestly believe that the present herd to be
sold in May Is better, by far, than either Of
the two sales IN Kentucky. I think he will
back me- In this assertion. The catalogue Il
very rich in good things, and purchaser
wanting the very best animals should not fai
to send for catalogue aud attend the sale. l.
