Now in England the Shorthorns do not stand
so much in the lead of all other breeds as to
numbers as they do in this country. At the
meeting of the Bath and West of England So-
ciety, held in June, at Hereford, there were
shown of Herefords, 160; of Shorthorns, 55;
all other breeds, 88. Without going into detail
as to the show you will permit me to speak of
‘Tredegar’ (5077) 2478, a Hereford bull that
has quite a noted record in the show ring. He
was shown here in the class of bull, cow and off-
spring. It is said of him he was first shown at
Newport when a calf, and took first in his
class; also at Bath and West of England, at
Bristol, first; next at the Bedford meeting of
the Royal, he won similar honors, and first at
Dudley, of the Worcestershire meeting; first
and special at Ledbury; first at Croydon of
Bath and West of England’s Society, and the
champion prize as the “best bull of any breed;
beating that well known prize winner in the
Shorthorn classes, ‘Sir Ingram; then at the
Taunton meeting of the Royal, when he re-
peated his previous performance, and at Here-
ford, in the show following, took the special
prize offered for best Hereford bull; at the
Worcestershire Society he also won first prize
for the best bull in the yard.
