we judge for tbe introduction of
this, one of the best breeds of
cattle known for milk and but-
ter. The Echo coufiden+ly ex-
pects to see man}' more of this
breed of cattle introduced into
our county at an early date and
that they will prove a success,
but gentlemen, they will not
miet your expectations unless
you give them the beat of care,
food and shelter. They are not
accustomed to rough it, and un-
dergo such treatment as are our
native cattle, and if they are
treated in tbe same manner,
you will be sadly disappointed.
