The last three. are building up‘ pure bred Jresey yflerde and I hope they will have the same measure ol success that has greeted our Jersey breeders to date. . - All the above animals are sired by Meridele King o! R, one ol the best pure bred bulls in the East. I know both the sire and the dam o! this bull and they are outstanding ani- mals. His dam is one ol the great brood cows at Richmond Jerseys and his sire is none less than Xenias Oxlord King, the sire o! the world's record cow Xenia's Oxlord Lilac with over 1,000 lbs. lat. ln the year, and also sire ol Coronation» Oxlord King that won the get ol sire class on the Islariddast year. the highest honour that a Jersey bull can win. Mr. Parker is retaining the son ol Meridale King ol R in thrherd lor a time. "We could have sold many more bulls than we had," writes Mr. Parker _ It pays to advertise. Every now some good stock to sell but would rather sit back and ‘bay at the moon" than advertise.
