POLLED CATTLE
Messrs. Hills & Jackson Have Placed
Herd on Their Ranch.

Edwards county bids fair to become
II center for the breeding of blooded
stock of the various kinds. To the
| several herds of registered cattle
! Messrs. Hills & Jackson. who have
placed upon their farm. known as the
Norton Ranch, u herd of Shorthorn
! and Double Standard Polled Durham
cattle, purchased of H. II. Kinghorn,
Dnws, Wright county, Iowa.
The foundation stock of this herd
was bred by Mr.. Hills father. The
late Mr.. G. Hills, of Delaware, Ohio,
distinction as IL breeder and importer
of ShorthOrns. Animals of his breed
ing have been deemed good enough
Tor export, two COWS of the Rose Of
Sharon" tribe finding homes in the
pastures of the Earl of Dunmore,
Scotland. One of them, ''Cry
Queen III -, with four of her produce,
won honors at the great York shire
ASrlculLufal SnOW.
Naturally MIR. Hills desired cattle
with whose merits he has been ac-
quainted from his childhood. They
are the practical, useful sort, the
COWS rich, heavy mixers, and the
bulls the kind needed by many farm
ers to improve their cOnmon stock
both for milk Ind beef.
The bull at the head of the herd is
The 9Th Duke of Fairholme, bred
by Hon. Arthur ~ Jones, another
noted breeder Of Central Ohio This
bull is of the famous Duchess family.
His dam, sire and grandsire have the
polled feature. More than ninety per
cent. of his calves are polled.
For the benefit of readers who may
not be acquainted with the fact, we
will say that Polled Durham- are
simply hornless Shorthorns. Poiled
Shurthorns have become sufficiently
numerous. to warrant name and
book of record of their own. Hence
''Poiled Durhans. Double Stand
ard" means eligible to record in both
Shorthorn and PoIled Durham herd
books.
n breed with all tn. characteristics
of ShorLhOrhS except the horns Is The
object engaging the attention of

try. \ great effort is being made To

That these efforts are attended with
success is demonstrated ny tn. short
