The champion beast in England is a
splendid Devon steer, whose sire rojoices
in the popular name of Gladstone and
which belongs TO Norwich man, but
which was bred at Tavistock Just under
three years of age this animal tips the
beam at $50 hundredweight and a quar-
ter. How does that look, says the patri-
otto visitor, for the roast beef of old En-
gland. At the Birmingham show last
week the judges proclaimed this
steer the best of its breed that they had
seen, and the Islington wise men
have crowned the edifice of Gladstone
pere's fame by the supreme award of all,
TO say nothing of being first in his class,
best of his breed and the best male in the
show. When looked at him yesterday
he did not seem much affected by all this
honor; but | am afraid he will be rather
cut up before long. His closest rival was
q black Scotch heifer from Rosshire, pro-
nounced a little beauty and awarded
$50 cup as the best lady in the show.

Waldo County Veterans,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE JouRNAf.: In reply
to Comrdde Bateman's request | would say
Comrade, you have struck the right note sure
! say, fall in Comrades and lets have one grand
rally of all the soldiers from Waldo County
Regimental reunions are well enough to get to-
gethtr the old fellows who stood side bv side
with Us through sickness and death; but we
want larger field to work in. There Were lust
rs good soldiers outside of my regiment as in It,
We were all striving to uphold the same Old
flag, and it will not be many years before The
last reunion will be held. the last roll call
answered. and as we hope to meet all The com
radeS in the grand army above, let us form
better and stronger ties here, by meeting once
a year all the comrades of Waldo and other
counties. Waldo is proud, and should feel
proud, OF her record i'll the late war, for no
better men left the old Pine Tree State than
those from Waldo County. Look at the record
of the 4th Maine boys from Waldo. Why the
other day ! overheard two of them telling
about trying to get their Major out of the
Devils Den at Gettysburg after he was wound
ed, and they were both shot and had to crawl
off the field. In talking it over they did not
think it was much to brag about. Comrades,
why do you keep silent all these long years.
Why not let some of your deeds be known: |
may have something more to say on this sub
ject in the future. A. STINsoN.
