In Tonnage 20000 we have another son of is not only a grandson of Combination through Diploma, but. his dam isTranscript 31867. with a test of 17 lbs. 7 oz. in 7 days, who is a daughter ofCombination; so that Tonnage is a double grandson of Combination. It will thus be seen that Tonnage has 50 per cent, of the blood in MerryMaiden, the great champion sweepstakes cow in the Worlds Fair Dairy Testsagainst all breeds, all three tests combined; and inasmuch as he is in everyessential a typical bull for the progenitor of dairy cows, we will be greatlymistaken unless he produces a most superior type. Those of his daughtersin milk go a great way to bear out this belief. We consider him an uncom-monly handsome bull, and his get of unusual excellence and promise. Heis a very long, deep barrelled bull, with a remarkably good skin. His ribs areopen and flat and he has great constitution. Tonnage Girl, hi
