In the year 1904 a farmer residing
near the city of Des MOines imported
from Canada a number of POlled
Hereford cattle. They are the same
as the other HerefOrds only hOrnless.
In 1910 Purcell Bros, who reside in
section one, Paradise township, de-
cided they would rather raise Here
ford cattle without horns than to de-
horn them. They went to the farm
of the gentleman near Des Moines,
above referred to, and made liberal
purchase. They have been breeding
them ever since and now have prob
ably the largest herd OF POlled Here
ford cattle in this county. They have
in all forty head. They sell many of
them which keeps down the size of
the herd. They are not backward
about buying new blood either. Last
July they purchased a young sire for
which they paid $500 and have re-
fused an offer of 81 900 for him from
a breeder who resides in the vicinity |
Of Rockwell City They now have
three aged bulls and eight young ones.
Anyone interested in this breed, and !
