This small breed of French cattle, are fashionable in the parks and pleasure grounds of English gentlemen, on account of their diminutive size, and the peculiar richness of their milk. Col. Powel's fifteen years experience with them, pro- nounces them, in his somewhat summary way, " an unthrifty, dwarfish, savage breed; and Parkinson remarks, "they are of as bad a form as can possibly be ; Their appetite is voracious; an Alderney cow consuming nearly as much as a Short Horn, which is three times her size. Some of them have been imported into our country, but probably with no very great The Holderness.â(Fig. 4.) Some time during the 18th century, Short ^orned Cattle were introduced into the north-eastern counties of England, from the adjacent continent. They are indiscriminately termed Yorkshire or Holdernest cattle, by the early writers;.
