In the catalogues which Mr.. Saun
ders issued he had the following t.
say, which will be of interest to man,
readers of the Review:
81 have thought it might be of in
1terest to state how l started in lif
and became a breeder of Shorthorns
Born in Wisconsin, of English pal
ents, my father being a carpenter,
was left an orphan at the age of thi1
teen, went to work on farm soon al
ter for a Mr.. Crother, and he mus
have been a better friend of min
then than l thought he was, or h
would not have bothered with me,
;boy Just out of town who did not know
thow to drive a COW or halter horse
But I did the best could, and h
wanted me the next year, but l wen
ITO work for Mr.. John Wilson, an
there is where l learned to feed tn
calf that l will tell you about later.
1.-THE first idea had of Shorthorl
was a few years before this, as YER
small boy, perhaps nine or ten year
old, but we'll do remember that day
At was at the Dane county fair, hell
at the town of Mazonaine. l saw
large crowd of men standing aroun'
looking at something, and boy like,
wanted to see what they were LOOKING
at. so worked my way through so
