NSYI.VANIA University Acquires $lBOO Scotch Heifer A representative of the University has purchased an $lBOO Shorthorn heifer in Perth, Scotland. The heifer, Craigeassie -Eliza Bth, was the reserve grand champion Shorthorn in a livestock show, and was bought at the show by Herman R. Purdy, instructor in animal husban dry. She is two years old. The animal will calf sometime I this month, and the calf will be. sent with her to the University] next summer. i Craigeasie Eliza Bth must go through two 60-day quarrantine periods, one in Scotland and one in Canada, before she can be brought into this country. After she calves she will be bred again and the second calf , will be born after she arrives at the University. The heifer was sired by Craig eassie Welcolme, who is the son of the most famous bull in Scot land, Calrossie Welcome. Although the Shorthorn breed' was biought to the United States , from the Brish Isles in 1783, the outstanding breeding stock is still being bought there, Purdy said. This is primarily because the breed was first developed there, he explained. Money from the sale of PS Troubadour, the University's grand champion Scotch Short horn steer. is being used to im prove the Shorthorn herd, Pur -1 dy said. PS Troubadour was sold for more than $20,000 to the Greenbrier Hotel, White Sulphur Springs. W. Va.. at the Chicago International Live stock Exposition. Purdy said that if the calves of the new heifer are bulls they will probably be sold. If they are heifers they, like their dam, will be used for breeding purposes.
