NORTJtl PJLATTE sii-tVEEKLY TRIBUNE if 4 The Ideal Farmers Cow The undersigned Dawson County Red Polled Breeders will sell at the Sale Pavilion, at Lexingtdn, Nebr., on Thursday, May 26, 33 Head of Cattle 33 20 cows and heifers, 13 head of young bulls six months to two years old. Some arc from cows in the advanced registry, and some from cows that will bo, if their present record of an average of two lbs. per day continues and their record completed. The records of the breed show them easily capable of producing from 400 to GOO lbB. of butter fat. The highest record of any one cow, 31725 Jean Du Luth Beauty, is 891.5 pounds butter fat. A mere look at most of the offering in this sale will prove their ability in producing a desirable type of feeders. The highest beef test record showed the breed capable of producing well marbled steak, the carcass dressing 73.72 per cent. This offering will not be loaded with fat, but are handled in a practical fanner's way, making them capable of converting roughage into beef and milk. If agriculture is the foundation of all pursuits, and without fertility the soil will soon become bar ren, would not a practical fanner's cow that will give a good How of milk enough to nurse two calves well, while you milk the other and yet produce beef of good quality, be the cheapest way to maintain fertility? Has not the Red Polls been bred. along these lines longer and are they not more highly developed in dual purpose than any other bred? Come and see. Teddy, our foundation herd bull, had for his sire Profector, a Chicago Interna tional Champion, and his dam, Nina, had a record of 6 gallons of milk per day. The year we sold Teddy's Best, that won 32 championships, Mr. Anthony bought the Calf Lexington by Teddy and out of Bonnie, a 1G50 lb. cow, the greatest producer we ever owned. Lexington was the calf that made Mr. Hansen feel like flopping pen nies as to which one to take. Had Lexington been fitted and shown by Anthony like Teddy's Best, Teddy's Best might have had to be renamed. Since then the herd has had at its head Red Knight by Happy Jack, and Chief Channer 3397, a first prize 'Sen ior calf at Nebraska State Fair, 1919, a son of Royal Channer and a grandson ,of the 2400 lb. Charmer, the grand champion at the Chicago International 1919. As for Randal 24811, the present herd bull in the Anderson herd, we quote from Chester Graff, this notes, "As a two year old. Randal vfas undefeated in his class at the Iowa, Nebraska, and both Kansas State Fairs." His dam, Ruperta, a champion in her time, Aveighed over 1700 lbs., in how fonn. and was pronounced by different judges as a most remarkable type of dual purpose cow. She was a great producer at the pail. She was the dam of several champions at the leading shows of America. His sire, Dandy, was av champion at several state fairs in 1912-13. Also his broth er, Dixon, was grand Champion bull at 1909 International at Chicago. ' i Several of his calves in this sale are show prospects and will be a pride to any owner.
