 in the country who had spared ne:-
 ther effort nor money in their pre- parations for these exhibitions, the bull Pilot of the GIen," leader of
 the herd, took first, champion and grand champion prizes in the state fairs of Michigan, Indiana, Tennes- see, the tri-state fair at Memphis, and the state fairs of Kentucky and Illinois. At the last-named show the bull won over some of the greatest animals ever produced.

 In the Ayrshire section MT. Sanders is of the opinion that some explana- tion of conditions should be made in | order that the people of this section may understand the conditions under | which the local cattle, owned by w A. Macdonald, of Mesa, were exhibit ed. In the competition at Cleveland | these cattle were forced to compete against seven full herds, the pick of Scotland and America, in the largest show of this breed of stock that has taken place this year. One herd ex- hibited at this fair was valued at $20,000, and contained some of the most famous Ayrshire cattle in the world. Notwithstanding these condi- tions, the bull, "Willowmore Robin 1 Hood exhibited by MT Sanders, took third prize. In a ring of sixteen two year old heifers he won third; in ring of eight yearlings. second; in a ring of twenty-one calves, first, and in ring of twenty produce of COW, first This is considered a wonderful showing by those who are familiar
