LETTER FROM THE QUEEN
I am pleased to be Patron of the Highland Cattle Society, which has done so much to safeguard and expand the breed around the world. I have been a keen breeder of Highland Cattle on the Balmoral Estate since 1953, and follow with interest the work of the Society and all its members in encouraging new and existing farmers to rear Highland Cattle. On the publication of this year’s Highland Breeders’ Journal, I send my best wishes to all those associated with the Highland Cattle Society for continued success.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE This is my first message as President of the Soc iety and I once again reiterate what a privileg e it is to be elected to this position. A lot has happened since the last Journal with our previous Breed Secretary Sian Sharp deciding to mo ve on from the Society. I would like to go on record at this point to thank Sian for all she did for the Society and its members during her time with us. On the back of this change we ma de two new appointments to our staff in the Stirling office namely David Hyland and Charlie Amor in the roles of Breed Secretary and Promotions Officer respectively. We welcom them into their positions e and look forward to wo rking with them in the future. They both come with fresh pairs of eyes to the roles with no previou connections with farming s or agriculture in genera l. I ask Members to be patient and understand that these two new staf f members will take time fully settle in to their resp to ective roles. It has been a challenging time for the Society and agr iculture in general with Brexit uncertainties, wet East’ and culminating in autumn conditions follow the hottest summer for a ed by ‘The Beast from the generation.

OBITUARIES Andrew Cameron 1934 - 2018
I was lucky enough when I was a young lad to meet Andrew, as I was on a YTS scheme working with Angus McFadyen at Bragleenmore, next door to Bragleenbeg where Andrew had been Farm Manager for two different owners during the 60’s and 70’s. When Andrew and Angus met, they had a glint in their eyes and the stories and knowledge that these men imparted made me sit bolt upright and listen for hours. I had a great respect for Andrew and Sheena, as did numerous members of the farming community far and wide. When we met, they were a joy to be in company with and their stocksmanship was second to none. They had met on Islay in the early 60’s and were married in 1964. They had three daughtes - Jane, Mary & Catherine who were all raised at Bragleenbeg and Kilninver Home Farm where Andrew was Farm Manager for David Kilpatrick, and where he built the Kilninver Fold of Luing cattle. In 1976 they moved to Glen Doe near Fort Augustus where Andrew was manager for 19 years until he decided to take life at a slower pace, securing a job with Torrdarroch Highland Cattle Fold. He and Sheena went on to win nearly every top accolade in the country, including the small and large Fold Champions for Torrdarroch. They gave time and advice, help and
encouragement to many folds, and fittingly they were awarded the Andrew Morrow trophy in recognition of their work. Sadly, we lost Andrew to prostate cancer on 2nd March 2018. The Highland breed will certainly miss Andrew’s immense knowledge and tremendous character. Our thoughts and best wishes go out to Sheena and their family. Angus MacGillivray
Arne Hansen, Pilkmose Fold, Denmark 1943 - 2018
Highland breeder and former board member and treasurer of the Danish Highland Cattle Society, Mr. Arne Hansen, passed away on 25th January 2018, 75 years old. He was born on a dairy farm and since he was a little boy he showed a thorough interest in breeding. Newly married to Mrs. Sine he bought a farm with Holstein cows in 1966, but due to fertility problems the dairy herd was dispersed, and then Arne Hansen demonstrated his skills in pig breeding. In the first place Danish Landrace, but also the Yorkshire, Hampshire and Duroc breeds. Soon he had the number one pig breeding herd in Denmark. Arne Hansen bought his first Highlanders in 1994 and for many years the Pilkmose herd counted 25 cows + followers. From pig breeding Arne Hansen had a deep knowledge of breeding principles and he knew how to adjust them to be used in his Highland herd. As a board member of the Danish breed society for 16 years he generously shared his knowledge with fellow members. Arne Hansen never spoke with loud voice, but everyone listened – and learned – when he took the floor. Over the years many breeding animals have left the Pilkmose herd to become foundations of new Highland herds or to introduce new high-quality bloodlines to established herds. Also, Highlanders with the Pilkmose prefix have been very successful in the showring. Arne Hansen was a perfectionist in everything he touched –
24 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
breeding pigs and Highlanders, the way he looked after the breed society’s money (treasurer for 11 years), etc. Also, he produced highly admired work of art out of pieces of wood and Highland horns. For his achievements with his pig and Highland herds Arne Hansen received several distinctions. We have all lost a dedicated breeder and a dear friend. Niels Seidenfaden
OBITUARIES Angus MacColl 1960 - 2017
I remember visiting Torloisk after Angus had moved back there from Tithebarn to take over from his parents. I was greeted at the gate to Ackleck House by a table and two curly-haired beaming young children. They were smiling like the sun, with some very clean rocks on the table and a sign stating ‘Lucky Stones for Sale’. Leanne told me they were very lucky in front of her dad, and then when Angus was out of earshot she whispered ‘we just got them from the beach’ with the same charm her father had and a glint in her eye. Whilst I was telling this story in Oban market one day, Bob McWalter piped up ‘I remember that! I bought one from them both – I’ve got two lucky stones!!’ Angus’s eyes lit up and Bob realized what he had said and everyone dissolved into fits of laughter. That was Angus through and through – so proud of his children’s ingenuity, just like himself when in action selling cattle he could sell ‘sand to the Arabs’, and when he saw an opportunity that wicked sense of humour came shining through. Angus was great company whether on our annual pilgrimage to Lanark or Dalmally tup sales, or to an event or show, his eye for detail and his expertise either with cattle, sheep or his dogs was a sight to behold. A Muileach born and bred and highly passionate about Mull and Argyll, he was a tremendous rugby player and when he phoned to tell me he had played with Scott (his son) for Isle of Mull his pride came booming through. He was like a light to a moth and in any company his majestic personality held his audience captive. He achieved tremendous success at Glengorm, and himself and his wife Pam built a home full of laughter and life for guests, family and especially children and grandchildren. Sadly he was taken from us far too quickly and not long before he died, I had the pleasure of working with him to get sheep ready for the Salen show. Even though he was severely ill, he still had that same passion and dedication for his beasts as he had throughout his life. I am very proud to have been able to call Angus my friend, and our thoughts and best wishes go out to Pam, Leanne, Scott, Wee Angus, Elsie, Malcolm, Sally and all Angus’s beloveds. Angus MacGillivray

FIONE’S STORY The Highland Cattle Society were contacted by a Miss Fione Cruikshank, her story is one which has inspired me. I would like to share and update you on her journey as she follows her dream of having her own Fold. Fione’s journey started in November 2017 when she got a chance to experience the Imbewu trail which involves a week in the Cairngorms National Park learning about rural jobs. The Imbewu trail is organised by a charity called the Wilderness Foundation. The charity has Prince Harry as one of their patrons and was one out of seven charities who are benefiting from the donations from the royal wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. After the Imbewu trail she got the chance of entering the David Eckersley Scholarship. This started after David Eckersley himself died in 2016 he was one of the founders of the wilderness foundation. The David Eckersley scholarship is a chance for young people to start their career and live their dreams by writing an application of why they would like the grant of money. Fione entered it to start her career in the agriculture industry and increase the numbers of female farmers by starting my own fold of Pedigree Highland Cattle. A few days after submitting her application she had to go to the Scottish Parliament where Imbewu gave a presentation to the Deputy First Minister of Scotland, John Swinney, to show how much Imbewu can change young people’s lives.
26 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
The David Eckersley scholarship winner was announced that night and she got the highest grant to start her fold. It has been a long process since she got her grant. Fione has had a lot of help from Mr Alex Smith and Mr Ken Brown as they have given her tips and tricks for the future and have pointed me in the right direction. Joining the Highland Cattle Society means Fione can now have the continued support she needs. Help and advice is offered from the society on all aspects of cattle management, including farm visits. She also has all of the benefits of being a member. We are very keen to support both young and female farmers. I look forward to seeing her progress and wish her every success. Fione Cruickshank

HARPER ADAMS AGRI BUSINESS STUDENTS – THE CHALLENGE How do the Highland Cattle Society promote the breed and the beef? How do we improve the sales and prices for quality animals? This was the challenge set for the Harper Adams final year Agri business students as a real life consultancy project that they had to complete at the beginning of this year as part of their final degree course. There were six students spilt into teams of three. Two members of council visited them in autumn 2017 and chatted over the issues Highland breeders face in getting a good price for either their animals or their beef. At the beginning of the year we had a video conference call with all the students and some HCS members and their tutor Tony Asson finalised their brief. You will hopefully seen the questionnaire they devised. Then the teams spilt into two to do their own research and analysis. One team stood outside supermarkets to get an idea about what consumers thought about Highland beef, or had they even heard of it? Both teams talked to abattoirs including Dovecote Park and both teams went on visits to two folds. The aim of the fold visits was to illustrate the tough conditions the cattle are happy in, how they convert rough pasture while doing a conservation job and how they are slow growing. The picture shows cattle on extremely difficult terrain overlooking the Welsh Hills. The teams wrote up their ideas in reports and both teams presented to council members at Harper Adams. What were their findings? Well there is an awful lot in the reports which you can find at https://www.dropbox.com/s/hs1ksvc5o61aayc/ Management%20Consultancy%20Project%20 Highland%20Cattle%20Society%20Final%20 Team%20%20Awesome.arepdf?dl=0 and https://www.dropbox.com/s/yiz1aboj5j9vbld/ Assignment%20final%20-%20HCS%20team%20 %20Ace.pdf?dl=0 The link to the presentations are: Team Ace: https://www.kaltura.com/tiny/hedgo Team Awesome: https://www.kaltura.com/tiny/beaxu The students were very impressed with the passion that the members showed about the breed and the lengths people went to to fill in the questionnaire. They had 144 replies to their survey which is a good response rate – roughly 12% of members. (Usually response rates to these sorts of things is way below 10%). There was some analysis of the data for example the average length of membership was 14 years, the longest 64 year and the average number of cattle owned was 39 head. 71% of the respondents said the breed had some,

The free text comments made by members made interesting reading – here are a few. “1. Develop a strong political voice to promote the economic and environmental value of low input hardy hill cattle possibly in conjunction with other native breed societies. Food security will be an issue at some time in the UK and a more sustainable use of upland areas for meat production could be critical. Policy makers need to be more aware. 2. Promote the value of the Highland cow as a first cross for production of upland suckler cattle cow 3. Find ways of supporting the market for pure Highland beef through promotion and a real understanding of how the meat market works. The true value of the store steer calf is not reflected by the low prices breeders often receive.” The Council are inviting the tutor to the sale in Oban where we hope to involve members in looking at the recommendations and ideas put forward and assessing what to take forward in the future. Do try and look at the presentations or read the reports and put forward your views to the council.

This year the West of Scotland Highland Cattle club kicked off, as is usual, with our AGM. Once again held in the Fenwick Hotel, this time on Saturday 20th January. We had 41 members present for this year’s meeting and dinner. This year was our biennial big change round in the office bearers, Catherine McKechnie stepped down as Chair and was replaced by Alan Prentice who stepped up from Vice Chair, Alan’s place as Vice Chair was taken by Roddy McDougall and Andy Clotworthy joined the Committee. Catherine is not quite off the hook yet as she has a couple of years still to serve on the Committee as Ex-Chair. Stephen Hunter stood down from the committee having completed his spell as Ex Chairman. Our constitution is structured so that this set of changes happens every two years so that we keep things fresh. Many thanks to Stephen for the years he spent on committee; I am sure he will enjoy the rest. We presented the Club Show Fold Trophy during the meeting, which, much to the delight of Matt Auld and Mel Sinclair was won this year by The Glasgow Parks Fold, well done to them for all the hard work put into winning. After the AGM we enjoyed a good social evening over dinner, it was a more relaxed affair than last year, This time we managed to dodge the snow, so people were not rushing away to get home as happened in 2017.
Spring trip to Killochries 2018 - Hosts Iain *Sgheena Graham with Alan Prentice.
38 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
Spring trip to Killochries, May 2018.
Our membership in the West Club is still strong, we are just short of one hundred members on our books, which is good to see, and our membership is pretty active. We have a few new members this year which is always a positive, particularly since the new members consist mainly of younger folk. It is particularly heartening to see new blood coming into the Club in these days where clubs and societies in general seem to be declining. Some of the new members are also relatively new to Highland Cattle too, I am sure that our membership will give them all the help and support they need as they learn what it is all about. The Oban sale saw a good representation by the West Club members and it was good to meet “the new Secretary” I hope David was not too traumatised by his first Show and Sale. The Summer shows seemed to come upon us very quickly this year and they brought the good weather with them, I don’t think many here in the West were sorry to see the back of the awful end of winter and start of spring the first couple of shows in the season still laboured under the tail end of the effects of the winter but after Neilston show at the beginning of May the weather fair improved, it’S just a pity it forgot to give us a wee shower now and again to keep the grass growing. Never happy are we? With May came our Club Spring trip. This year we were invited to visit Killochries Fold and what a super welcome Iain & Sheena Graham, their family and staff gave the Club. Members were made to feel at home on arrival at Lukestone Farm to be greeted with tea, coffee and rolls and sausage. Iain assisted by Liz Shaw, then guided us round some of the in-by fields to see the
CLUB NEWS Highlanders. They had been brought down from the high hill so that we didn’t need to travel too far to see them. The spring hadn’t quite fully sprung when we visited, but our day was dry and warm enough to be comfortable outdoors. Iain demonstrated his handling system, giving some of our members cause for thought when they saw the electronic tagging system in use. As someone commented, “That leaves nae use for a soggy bit o’ paper and a dodgy biro then.” A lovely lunch followed, with lots of hot soup and a nice selection of filled rolls that were well appreciated. Following in convoy we moved on to Bishopton and Drumcross Farm, to see Iain’s Shorthorns, the sheds and handling system there. We saw some superb Shorthorn cows with their calves and a grand batch of 2 year old Heifers ready to go to sale along with the stock bulls. Many thanks again go to Iain, Sheena their family and staff for providing another memorable West Club day trip. The West club Members have been busy on the show circuit through the summer with some considerable success and we have been trying to keep up to date with the results and a few photos on the West Club Facebook page where and when possible, if you haven’t already done so have, a look on line. The Highland Show saw a strong representation from the Club too. With more than half the available prize tickets coming to West Club members. Our up and coming Club Show on the 18th of August will be but a memory by the time this appears in print, so have a look on the Facebook page to see how it went. Once again we owe a great debt of thanks to Glasgow City Council for allowing us to hold the show in Pollok Park it is such a lovely setting for a wee show. For our autumn trip in September will be visiting Grantown on Spey & staying in the Grant Arms Hotel on the 14th & 15th. Gordon McConachie is our host at Culfoichmore on the Saturday morning, then in the afternoon we will be taking a
Highland Show 2018, Donald McNaughton’s Champion & Alan Kennedy’s Reserve.
short break from “coos” and visiting the shiny new Macallan Distillery and visitor centre, I can’t imagine that Highland Cattle folk will be interested in a distillery though…. Then back to Culfoichmore after. We will have our usual Saturday night dinner at the Hotel with both sets of hosts invited along. On the Sunday after checking out, we will be heading down to Rothiemuchus Estates near Aviemore for a visit there before making our way home. To round up this all too brief resume of the year the West Club Committee would like to thank all of our faithful members for their support and hard work for the club over the last year. A club is only as good as its members and the West club is doing just fine. We would also to thank all those poor souls who were brave enough to host our Club visits and for having the patience to put up with us. We really do appreciate all the hard work and organisation that goes into having a club visit. We look forward to seeing members and Friends at the shows and sales around the country next year.

Rising Stars Show The 12th of November 2017 saw the Rising Stars Show at Thirsk Auction Mart with a good entry and improving quality of entrants. Robert Philip kindly judged the event and placed Simon & Emma Hayley’s heifer as champion and 9 year old Joseph Williamson as the best young handler of the event.
Dovecote Park Visit On the 23rd November 2017 Dovecote Park near Pontefract hosted our club for an educational visit of the whole process of Waitrose beef from hoof to supermarket. Thirty plus members of the club were appropriately dressed for the visit with ID check and phones left in the car. Starting at the finish and working our way back to the source,we were suitably impressed with a very professional tour of the plant which was putting Highland Cattle through the system as a Christmas special. Incidentally Highland Beef sides from Scotland are also processed at the plant. Thanks were given to Robert Philip for organising the event.
Champion: Margaret – Owned by S & L Haley
Junior Handler: Joseph Williamson with his heifer Athena of Nortwelle.

AGM January 21st 2018 our AGM was held at Woodhall Hotel & Spa, Linton, Wetherby, W.Yorks. The evening began with the business of our Annual General Meeting. Three new committee members were elected and it’s great to have new input in the running of the club. We moved onto a very nice meal and time to catch up with other members. Trophies were awarded for best show results during the previous year. The evening was finished off with a Highland fold quiz. A great time was had by all.

Highland Fling The start of the show season for club members on a gloriously sunny ban holiday weekend in Sheffield. Sunday May 6th 2018 saw four new good quality handlers in the Buddy Session. Each novice handler is given 2 hours tuition from an experienced club member before taking to the show ring for the first time.
Monday May 7th 2018 saw the 17th Highland Fling held by kind permission of Sheffield Council with over 30 entries on a beautiful day.
The competitors all enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere at the Highland Fling which allows the public to be close but safe with the cattle. The cattle were kindly judged by Matt Auld from Glasgow Parks, who was suitably impressed by the quality of cattle presented. A great crowd of people brought out by the fine weather enjoyed Robert Philip as commentator and Daniel Rowbottom’s black heifer, Wendreda of Kelby, was placed as Supreme Champion. Thanks go to all our sponsors and especially the committee, not forgetting Steve and Lesley Burnett for their hard work and commitment to the club. Regards, Peter
Cups were presented by Sheffield’s Lord Mayor, Anne Murphy.

Visit to Ucheldir and Moloch Sanffraid Folds, 23 June 2018 Eleri and Geraint Hughes (Ucheldir fold) held a joint open day with Dr Trevor Dines and Neville Hughes (Moloch Sanffraid fold) to demonstrate the role of Highland Cattle as a tool in the regeneration of flower rich hay meadows, promoting biodiversity, enriching natural habitats and conservation of sensitive habitats. We started the day, after a cuppa, with a visit to Dr Trevor Dines’ wildflower meadow in the Conwy Valley. Trevor (who works for Plantlife) gave a talk on the history of his flower-rich hay meadow, one of 90 Coronation Meadows created around the UK, an initiative by HRH Prince Charles to celebrate 60 years since his mother’s Coronation. Trev and Nev own five acres of land, two Highland cows and a new born calf. The cattle, along with visiting sheep, have been used in targeted grazing to enhance and maintain the three-acre meadow. Native wildflower seed for the meadow came from two local ancient flower-rich meadows and methods of collection and transfer were discussed. The number of species is counted annually to monitor the project; since 2015 they have doubled to 85 and new species are constantly appearing. Sabine Nouvet, National Trust (NT) Ecologist for Snowdonia and Llyn, mentioned that she could see signs of insect activity in the cowpats visible on the ground, and that at the NT farm they have noticed slower breakdown of cow pats, possibly due to residues of chemical wormers and flukicides keeping the insects such as dung beetles away, and the possibility of other environmental factors including the amount of UV light and rainfall. Sabine is intending to carry out some research on the topic. This led to an interesting discussion on the use and benefits, or otherwise, of ivermectin and their impact on manure breakdown and bug life, whilst Trev and Nev’s Highland cows were being admired. This topic was left open for future discussion. Trevor then gave us a guided tour of his meadow pointing out the vast variety of plant species, grasses and flowers with a passion and enthusiasm that was infectious. Trevor proudly showed us the first common spotted orchid to appear in the meadow, hopefully the first of many. Yellow rattle and eyebrights are dominant, helping to suppress vigorous grasses and allow other wildflowers such as betony,
42 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
tormentil and devil’s-bit scabious room to grow, as well as more unusual flowers such as restharrow. Trevor also said that he would and does strongly recommend the use of Highland Cattle as conservation grazing because of their browsing characteristics and low impact on the land. After lunch, arranged by Eleri, we visited Cors Bodgynnydd where Rob Booth of the North Wales Wildlife Trust (NWWT) explained that the reserve is an SSSI owned by National Resources Wales and managed by the NWWT since the late 1990’s. The reserve, on the site of a disused lead mine, had been suffering from conifer woodland and scrub encroachment and general loss of habitats due to overcrowding of purple moor grass (Molinia). The trust’s aim is to manage it as an upland bog habitat with benefits for carbon storage and rare upland plants and wildlife including 16 species of dragonfly and damselfly. Rob approached Geraint and Eleri Hughes in 2011 to discuss the possibility of introducing Highland cattle grazing to help manage vegetation on the reserve. Since their arrival, it is clear that the habitat has returned to a favourable condition due to cattle tackling the scrub encroachment and reducing the amount
CLUB NEWS
Dr Trevor Dines and Neville Hughes. of purple moor grass. This has enabled the ground vegetation to be opened up allowing numerous species of flora and fauna to re-establish themselves on the site, including heathers, mosses, sundews, water voles, hen harriers, nightjars and adders. There was more excitement when an adder was seen! Trevor pointed out that he felt the site could take more grazing animals and Rob Booth said the North Wales Wildlife Trust would like more. In response, Geraint explained that the demand for cattle on this reserve and on other conservation grazing sites elsewhere meant that the fold needed to be bigger but because many of the sites are not suitable for year-round grazing, or for breeding and calving (because a minimum supplementary feeding might be necessary or
the fear of losing a calf in bog, etc), it is mainly young or non-breeding stock used there. The home farm simply does not have the capacity, spatially or financially to support an increased number of stock over the winter months. This led to an interesting discussion where it was suggested that these organisations that benefit so richly from these animals grazing their habitats over the warmer months should be providing some support for them during the winter. Rob had not realised that this was an issue previously and is now going to approach PONT to make them aware. In all, a very interesting and informative day.

The Perfect Wedding Present What is the best present you can ever have? Yes of course, it’s two Highland cows! In July we took two of our yearlings to the Royal Welsh and had them up for sale. As usual there were a lot of visitors in the Highland lines and unbeknown to us one ardent admirer stewarding in the Highland Cattle ring, Vicki Marie. Vicki Marie was about to get married to Stuart Williams of Willhome Ayrshires and yes, Stuart’s Mum and Dad bought Princess Erica and Ealasaid of Reilth Top for a surprise wedding present for Vicki Marie. The heifers had a good
show with Ealasid being brought forward in the pairs for the future’s class with Guy Mumford’s Urshula Elizabeth the 2nd of Yarchester. On the last day of the show we took them through to the dairy sheds, both they and the dairy stockmen had eyes popping out of their heads when we walked through with two Highland heifers. Off they went, loaded with a group of Ayrshire cows, down to Pembrokeshire. Jacky Harrison

The East of Scotland Highland Cattle Club’s year started with our annual club show on Sunday May 27th at the Forfar Mart with kind permission of Lawrie and Symington. To celebrate our 25th year we chose an original member to be Judge – Mr. Roddy McNaughton. We had a tremendous turnout of quality cattle as we’ve come to expect from our small but dedicated group of Highland Cattle owners & breeders. Our treasurer Lesley Dawson made a fantastic highland cow cake for the occasion and it was cut by another original member Mr. John Redpath. A list of winners on the day is below but a special congratulations to John and Jenne Singer for securing Champion with Ailsa Emma Dhubh of Kintore Castle a home bred 3 year old heifer and Ian Adams for Reserve.

The bar opened with Pimms on tap and every homemade gin flavours you could imagine (much yum!) The day started out overcast but we arrived to a sunny Yorkshire at the Cairn Hotel Harrogate! We spent two days at the show which all would agree was an incredible and memorable show/trip. We must take this opportunity to

Last year the Club report concluded with members looking forward to the Club Show which we were delighted to be able to hold in conjunction with the Royal Three Counties Show on 16th June 2017 at Malvern. The beautiful showground sits at the foot of the Malvern Hills in Worcestershire, an area of outstanding natural beauty, a location that sets it apart from other venues in the area. The roots of the Show go back to 1798 when the Herefordshire Agricultural Society held its first show in Broad Street, Hereford. Later this developed into the Three Counties Agricultural Society amalgamating with Gloucestershire and Worcestershire. Prior to 1958
46 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
the show had rotated around the three counties when the permanent site was purchased beneath the Malvern Hills. Royal status was awarded in 2014 under the patronage of H.R.H. The Princess Royal who has a fold of Highland cattle at her home in nearby Gloucestershire. It was fortunate that given the weather forecast was for a very hot day, judging began at 8.30 a.m. under cloudy skies making the conditions excellent for members to exhibit an outstanding display of quality Highland cattle. The judge, Jim Ayres from Norfolk worked his way steadily through seven classes with a total of thirty four animals being brought forward.

In September the Club was delighted to accept Michael Poland’s kind invitation to visit his Mottistone Fold on the Isle of Wight. Over coffee in the charming farm yard Michael introduced the team who run the farm and the plan for the day before we all clambered onto a trailer to begin our tour around the various groups of cattle. Returning to the farmyard we found that a Members met on 14th January 2018 for the A.G.M of the Club when they were delighted to welcome H.C.S. President Tom Thompson and his wife, Jeanette to the meeting. Following reports from the Officers’ regarding the activities for 2017 the Officers and Committee for 2018 were elected and we are delighted to welcome Brian Dalby as ViceChairman and Jim Ayres back to the Committee. Jeanette Thompson was invited to come forward and make the Club presentations as follows; Large Fold - Sandie Tedbury - Hardham Highlands, Runner up - T.P.Radford Medium Fold - Lyndsey Trees-Grafton Fold Small Fold - Robert wain-Rose Fold Novice Newcomers - Oliver Perkins This was followed by remarks from Tom Thompson who brought news of the Society to the meeting and was thanked and presented with a gift by our Club President, Daniel Rowbottom. Before breaking for lunch the auction and raffle took place raising £150.50 and £121 for Club funds. Our thanks go to Brenda Ayres, Sandie Tedbury and Jose Barr for this excellent effort on behalf of the Club.

splendid lunch had been prepared and as we digested our food we were given an in depth explanation of thefarm Manager IT system that plays an invaluable part in the business with planning, recording and keeping statistics. Back on the trailer it was off to see the Roundhouse, a state-of-the-art building where young stock are kept in winter and where stock bulls were on the day. As much of the farm is down to the Countryside Stewardship scheme it is noted for its wild flora, hedgerows and ancient woodlands that provide welcome habitats for many rare species of flora and fauna so as well as viewing the excellent cattle we had the opportunity to see the farm’s conservation activities. Throughout the day head stockman, Silas HeadleyLawrence, Matt Smith and Willie Maclean with Mr.Poland were on hand to discuss breeding policy, show preparation and the pros and cons of the various herds. Members and friends staying on the island arranged to finish the day by meeting for a meal on the sea front, where an Italian restaurant was located providing a fitting end to an excellent day.
CLUB NEWS Then on a wet and miserable Saturday morning in late April where better to meet with friends than at The Belvoir Brewery in Leicestershire. Some of us struggled to find the venue which is set in the delightful village of Old Dalby near Melton Mowbray but at least we were afforded the opportunity to experience the beautiful countryside. This area is no stranger to brewing— Belvoir Castle in the Vale of Belvoir once housed its own, complete with cooperage and cellars. Over coffee our guide explained that the Brewery was started in 1995 and has evolved to become one of the larger “micros” in the Midlands today, having a 25brl brew length with weekly capacity of 100 barrels and now supplies 275 pubs within a five mile radius. The tour took us through the ingredients used and the processes involved to produce the characteristics of the
beer from this brewery. Finally it was back to the restaurant where we were let loose with large jugs of beer to sample accompanied by an excellent lunch. Anyone not able to join us for this visit should consider coming to the area and calling in at the Brewery for a tour, buy some beer or book a tour. We look forward to continuing in 2018 with our Club Show at Edenbridge and Oxted on 26th/27th August and a visit to the Grafton Fold of Lynsey Trees in Warwickshire on 16th September. Finally thanks must go to all the office holders for all their hard work over the last twelve months and also to all members without whom there would not be a club. We are always keen to recruit new members so if you are interested please contact club secretary, Elizabeth Gwynn via our website, e-mail Kingsmill@talktalk.net or tel. 01989 750233.

REDACTIONEEL SE ‘DRENTSCHE AA’ AREA A unique part of the Netherlands, a special part of Europe. The source of several brooks meandering through nature to eventally converge in one wide brook: The ‘Drentsche Aa’. A beautiful location in which special plants and animals thrive. Where people live and work based on respect for the environment. No wonder this area has been designated a national park. Villages, dating back centuries, can be found on the higher grounds near water. Food was grown on the arable land surrounding them. Further afield herds of sheep grazed the meadows. Thus the people had everything they needed right on their doorstep; houses, water and food. Adapted to modern times traces of these ancient patterns can still be seen today. Corn, maize and potatoes are grown on the plots of land around the villages. Horse and cart have been replaced by robust, state-of-the-art tractors. A sight to see, a tractor, shimmering in the sun, ploughing the undulating fields. Birds following in its wake searching for worms. Man and nature respecting each other. At the end of the day the farmer returns home, a Saxon farmhouse retaining many of its historic features. Centuries may have passed, but here the foundations of life and work have remained unchanged. The lower lying areas are the source of the brooks. Here nature takes its course. A varied landscape with heather, woodlands, sandy plains and differences in height. These are the playing grounds of those plants and animals, such as the beaver and the Banded Demoiselle (a metallic blue dragonfly), found only in pristine areas. Various species of orchids like the pink, purple, white and spotted orchid flourish here.
An area which catches everyone’s imagination. Where people like to walk, cycle, sit on a bench to listen to the sounds of nature. Or just take a deep breath to inhale nature’s scents. Hush! Was that a tree pipit I just heard? Maybe you will spot a viper sunning itself on a rock. This beautiful scenery is the backdrop for the over 200 Highland cattle of the Anloo Fold. The animals graze on spacious plots. Parcels of well over 50 hectares are no exception. The herds, consisting of 40 to 45 animals depending on plot size, roam freely. Do they want to look for the shelter of the cool woodlands, dip their hooves in the water? They are their own masters foraging the fields. Each herd has its own bull, a real leader among the cows and their calves. The cows too follow their own instincts. Whenever a cow isolates herself from the rest of the herd you know the birth of a new calf is imminent.
54 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
REDACTIONEEL SE ‘DRENTSCHE AA’ AREA
The Anloo Fold of Highland Cattle play a vital part in nature’s conservation throughout the year. They are entirely self-sufficient. As of April-May they feed on lush, green grasses. In autumn with the grass getting scarce the animals turn to twigs and berries. Winter proves to be even more challenging so the cattle eat anything edible, thereby acting as nature’s cleaning service. Therefore, the composition of feed varies according to the seasons. This type of management results in a beautifully diverse landscape which in its turn draws in birds and other animals. Due to the alternations between rich and lean pickings the Highland cattle are allowed to mature in their own time. At the age of four a number of the cattle are slaughtered. This organic meat is then sold in ‘Landwinkel De Grazerij’. The meat retains its natural dark-red colour and full flavour. ‘Landwinkel De Grazerij’ offers a varied range of this organic, unprocessed meat such as steak, stew meat, mince meat as well as processed meat including hamburgers, sausages, beef skewers, rolled beef and dry sausage. Furthermore dairy, free-range eggs, flour from a local mill, and a number of other items are sold in the shop. A place to browse or just relax with a cup of coffee. The Anloo Fold of Highland Cattle operates within a virtually closed business system. Occasionally a breeding bull is purchased in order to prevent inbreeding within the herd. These bulls often come from abroad to establish a fresh, new bloodline. Attention is given to the animal’s character, health and build when purchasing breeding bulls as well as when selecting breeding cows. This has resulted in a herd of robust, healthy animals with a friendly disposition. The Anloo Fold of Highland Cattle also sells animals both in the Netherlands and abroad. Because of an extended familiarisation with potential buyers a match between buyer, animal and the conditions offered can be ensured. The potential buyer is taken on a tour of the grazing area to get an indication of the animals themselves. All of our cattle are registered as 100% Highland Cattle, which means that any animals sold can be registered in THE NETHERLANDS foreign Highland Cattle herd books. The red area is the Drentsche Aa area For further information: De Kudde van Anloo – Landwinkel “De Grazerij” Annerstreek 17 9468 AK ANNEN Nederland www.kuddevananloo.nl natuurbegrazing@ kuddevananloo.nl Text: Petra Bouwman, De Kudde van Anloo Photos: André Brasse, Instituut voor Natuureducatie en Duurzaamheid (Association for Environmental Education and Sustainability) Photo Shop: Arne Brink

DIARY OF THE ROYAL WELSH SHOW How do you express the buzz and camaraderie that goes along with the Royal Welsh Show and exhibiting Highland Cattle – I have tried to give it a go. Saturday 21st July 2018 – Took the caravan and checked out the cattle shed – nearly two rows of Highlanders, over 50 coming to the show. A few people already there with their cattle. The buzz has already started. Sunday 22nd July 2018 - Cows loaded and arrived about 10.30am, we were the last ones there. Sheds busy with cattle being washed and dried, pre show day buzz. Hot day and lovely evening all gathered at ours for non BBQ (no BBQs allowed this year because everywhere is tinder dry.) Strains of the massed Welsh choir coming from the shearing shed. David and Helen Hyland experiencing the first lot of Welsh hospitality.
Monday 23rd July - Film crew around early, our black one year olds were on BBC 4. Loads of work happening as show time drew closer, Sarah – our wonderful steward, had got the time move forward to 12.30pm as we had so many Highlands to be judged in each class. We worked non stop (no lunch) and out after the bull class (winner and champion Ceannard of Gilden Vale) we were out with Princess Analena and Gillie Mhor. Helen was in position with her camera and David in the ring; in the meantime the Welsh Club manned the stand. Then the three year olds, Richie Thomson of Spey View was very very complimentary about all the cattle and especially the three year olds, 12 forward. Winner and female champion Casair 2 of Stockley. We didn’t see the two year old class as busy getting our lovely black one year heifers ready. Standing waiting for the class the guns go off from the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery in the main ring. Handlers jumped out of their skins, heifers just blinked. That class was won by Rhian and Blackeys Gruagach of Caradog. Then busy washing down the cows so missed the championships, then off to the Highland Cattle Tent for evening social organised by Becky Rowland and helped
56 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
by Annie Perkins. Richie presented the trophies and made a nice speech. A big cheer for Angela and Duncan for their champion bull. The evening ended in the cattle lines where the cows and us were ‘serenaded’ by rock music from Will Perkins – Heavy rock from a 12 year old – AMAZING! Tuesday 24th July - Another hot day but most of us could have a day of rest, which means helping in the tent and supporting those out in the show ring. Watched the Fitzhugh championship, won by Lincoln Reds and then the group of five out, always a spectacular sight.
Wednesday 25th July - 9am was the exhibitor bred pairs with Geoff and Wendy of May Fold taking two red one year olds and me and Emils taking our two black one year olds. This was followed by the exhibitor owned group of three with the Highland cattle represented by 7 teams! What a turnout. The grand parade was hot but well organised with many many highlands out.
DIARY OF THE ROYAL WELSH SHOW
Thursday 26th July - 9am Saw the young handler classes. Jenny and Llinos did a grand job. Some of our young handlers were actually too young to enter, but did manage to get in the ring in the grand parade and other classes without anybody commenting.
Bryn (a Handley grandchild) presented Helen Hyland with a gift from the Highland exhibitors. Bryn made a wonderful little speech thanking her for her hard work in the tent and her patience taking millions of photos that I hope will grace this diary. Well at some point there was the pairs of the future, but I have lost track of all the classes and when they were! They were Rhian and Blackeys champion one year old and Louisa Jordan’s red one year Sweet Sheena of Tiddie Cross led out by Aubrey. Blackey and Aubrey made a grand pair (and the heifers!) Tickets were well spread out across the exhibitors – sorry I haven’t mentioned everybody. The final grand parade finished the week on the hottest day. Helen Hyland led Gillie Mhor – first time for Helen in the grand parade. The cows were all pleased to go home, some staying in the showground until it got cooler. Fond farewells – until next year.

Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018 57
EARLY RECORDS OF THE CLADICH FOLD The name Cladich has had a long association with the Highland breed of cattle well before the publication of the first Highland Herd Book in 1885. The county of Argyll in which Cladich is situated had a long reputation for the quality of its cattle all of which were known at that time as the West Highland or the Argyll Breed. At the height of the droving trade 1780-1860 cattle dealers both north and south of the border were willing to travel great distances and pay more for the superior types found in the West Highlands, in particular Argyllshire. The written records which exist from the era of the droving trade include those of Campbell of Stonefield, Knockbuy, Inverawe and Shawfield. By the time that the Highland Cattle Society’s records begin in 1885, the droving trade had greatly diminished. The coming of the railway had a great deal of influence on the livestock trade throughout the Highlands. The Cladich fold was surely established with animals whose breeding would certainly have come from the droving trade, but the fold’s early records are from a somewhat later date. (The Drove Roads of Scotland; A R B Haldane, Edinburgh University Press 1968. First published in 1952, by Thomas Nelson and Sons Ltd. Recollections of an Argyllshire Drover; by Eric Cregeen, first published in 2004 by John Donald Publishers. The History of Clan Campbell volume 3 by Alaster Campbell of Airds, first published in 2004 by Edinburgh University Press Ltd.) To return to the earlier history, much of the credit for the quality found in the cattle of Argyll must go to John 5th Duke of Argyll who did much to encourage his fellow clansmen and tenants in the principles of good cattle husbandry. He was elected the first president of the Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland 1784-1806, and instigated the first ever livestock competition held just outside the village of Connell in October 1789. The competition was only for Highland bulls between two and five years which were considered proper for the improvement of the Highland Breed. The bulls were further required to be the property and in the possession of any proprietor or tenant in Argyllshire. The first premium was a gold medal to the value of seven guineas. In 1789 this was
58 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
awarded to Mr Campbell of Lochend, which is hardly surprising as members of that clan were almost in complete control of the highly lucrative cattle trade in Argyll at that time; Campbell of Stonefield, Campbell of Jura, Campbell of Knockbuy, Campbell of Inverawe, and Campbell of Shawfield who owned the Island of Islay, along with Campbell of Monzie who owned the estate of Cladich on Lochawe up until about 1870. It is from this date that we find the name of J. C. Kay, owner of Cladich, within the Herd Books of the Highland Cattle Society first published in 1885. Volume 1 contains the bull, Domhnull Ruadh of Cladich, herd book number 146, born 1878 . It states that he was bred by the then manager John MacColl and was the property of Mr Jenkins, Gartcharran, Craignish. The herd book goes on to state that Domhnull Ruadh of Cladich gained the Highland and Agricultural Society’s silver medal at the Inveraray District Competion in1882. In Volume 2 of the herd book we find Morag of Cladich, herd book number 288 born in 1871; her calving record suggests that she was a prolific breeder, producing eleven calves in ten years of which many were black. Their sire was Sgiathanach Dubh, herd book number 490 bred by John Stewart of Ensay and the property of D. T. Campbell the tenant of Achalian which is one of the farms on the Cladich estate. Duncan Turner Campbell was one of the largest farmers in the area at that time renting Achalian from the owners for £550 a year, a considerable amount which suggests he was farming most of the estate on his own account he also he was also the tenant of Duiletter farm at at the head of Loch Awe where he had developed a fold of Highland Cattle of some reputation. (The Transactions of the Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland; Duncan Clerk, Oban 1878) Volume 3 of the herd book contains three female entries; RiabhachOg of Cladich, herd book number 1001 born 1881;her daughter Riabhach Og 2nd of Cladich, herd book number 1002 born 26th of December 1884 and Ribhinn 2nd of Cladich, herd book number 1003 born 1883. As a heifer she was awarded first prize at the Highland and Agricultural Society’s District Competition at Inveraray in 1885. All of the aforementioned females were the descendents of foundation females bought from the highly regarded fold of John McArthur of Barbreck situated on the opposite side of Loch Awe. J. C. Kay continued to register females in Volumes 4 and 5 of the herd books, in volume six we find only one entry, as the owner of the bull Young Man of Stor, herd book number 1070 bred by John Stewart of Ensay. Volume 7 has no entries. In Volume 8 we discover that John McColl is still the manager, registering Iain Buidhe of Cladich, herd book number 1255,
EARLY RECORDS OF THE CLADICH FOLD born 1893 and the property of James Carnegie, Stronvar - one of the most prominent breeders of that era. Volume 9 finds John McColl registering cattle under the Keppochan name, Keppochna being a farm on the western edge of the Cladich Estate, Rob Riabhach of Keppochanm herd book number 1415 born 1896. The publication of Volume 10 of the Herd Book sees the ownership of the Cladich Fold pass to Lieut-Colonel F. C. Lister Kay. (Without further genealogical research we might make the assumption that this is the son of K.C. Kay, and who died a Brigadier General.) Five entries appear: A Bho Riabhach 2nd of Cladich, herd book number 4510 born 1893; Cladich 2nd herd book number 4511 born 1895; Molag 3rd herd book number 4512 born 1897 bred by J McColl; Ribhinn 5th of Cladich herd book number 4515 born 1894; Ruadh Og of Cladich herd book number 4517 born 1895. Three entries appear in Volume 11: Ban Ruadh 2nd of Cladich herd book number 5029 born 1896; Barandraen herd book number 5030 born 1896; Dremork herd book number 5031 born 1896. No entries in Volume 12. Volume 13 shows some enlargement to the fold with entries from other well known folds, such as Cagaran, herd book number 6150 born 1902, bred by J. S. Ainsworth, MP of Ardanaiseig, an estate on the other side of Loch Awe. We also find Morag 2nd of Dunlossit herd book number 6111 born 1903 and Una 2nd of Dunlosit herd book number 6120 born 1901. Both were bred by D. T. Martin of Dunlosit on the Isle of Islay. Seventeen females were registered in total that year, which would suggest further development and expansion.
HIGHLAND BULL, VICTOR 22nd 1600 A well-known Prize-winner. Bred at Andtomish. First in the aged class at Oban in March last year, and sold by Mr Campbell, Shinness, to Colonel Kay, Cladich, for £53
Further new breeding was to be found in Volume 15 with heifers being registered whose dams had come from some of the leading fold at that time, Leanigh 4th of Scorrybreck herd book no 7241 born 1904 and Siuna 3rd of Ardtornish her book number 7242 born 1904. Volume 16 saw only five female
entries one of which was the first to be registered as black, Victoria of Cladich herd book number 7599 born 1905. This was the result of the introduction of Ardtornish breeding, the black bull, Victor 22nd and the Black Siuna 3rd of Ardtornish. For the first time in many years the Cladich Fold entered bulls they appeared in Volume 17, Craig Ruadh, herd book number 2551 and Calum Ruadh 2nd of Cladich herd book number 2536 both born in 1910.
Volume 18 was to see the last of Colonel Lister Kay’s breeding with five heifers and four bulls. Two of these bulls, Ruaraidh of Cladich herd book number 2828 and Tormaid of Cladich herd book number both born 1912, were sired by the outstanding stock bull, Agamemnon herd book number 2220 bred by William Sopper of Dunmaglass, Diviot. Agamemmon had gained first prize at the Highland and Agricultural show in Edinburgh as a stirk in 1907, second prize as a two year old at the same show in Aberdeen 1908; he gained the same distinction at the Royal Agricultural Show in Lincoln and Newcastle in the same years. There can be little doubt that during his short tenure of the Cladich Fold Colonel Lister Kay did much to improve the fold with the highly selective introduction of new bloodlines which in turn ensured its further development under the ownership of Colonel J E Dewar who first appeared in Volume 18 of the herd book with two bulls sired by Iain Ban of Farr herd book number 2762, Gillle Buidhe of Cladich, herd book number 2737 and Gille Riabhach of Cladich herd book number 2750 both born in 1914. This with regards to the foundation of the Cladich fold this is about as far as one should go in relation to setting the scene at the time of its development. A great deal of interesting research could still be done in relation to droving routes and records prior to the first herd book of 1885. Angus R. Mackay 03/6/2018

GOURLAY STEELL Our Society was founded in 1884, the height of the Victorian era and the popularization of a romantic vision of the Highlands by painters, poets and novelists such as Sir Edward Landseer and Sir Walter Scott. Queen Victoria’s fondness for remote places and dramatic scenery fed into a popular vision of Scotland as a wild and idyllic landscape featuring red deer, cheerful crofters, and of course the iconic Highland Cattle. Following Landseer’s death in 1873, a Scottish painter, Gourlay Steell, was appointed Animal Painter to Her Majesty for Scotland. His pictures will be familiar to many breeders.
Fig. 25 - Highland Cow and Calf. Bred by Mr D McLaren, Corrychrone, Callander. Winner of First Prize at Perth Highland Show in 1861. From a painting by Gourlay Steell in the Hall of the Highland and Agricultural Society.
“Son of John Steell, a well-known wood-carver in Edinburgh, he trained at the Trustee’s Academy and became a successful animal painter in oil. He also painted water-colours of stilllife subjects; studies of Scottish characters, and animal studies. He was appointed Animal Painter to the Highland & Agricultural Society of Scotland in 1840. One major work of his, still owned by that Society which has had to sell various important paintings to meet on going rises in expenses, is that of the West Highland Cow and Calf, 1st in her class at the Highland Show in Perth in 1861 owned by Donald McLaren, Corrychrone, Callander Perthshire. An earlier commission by Richard Dennistoun Campbell of Jura in 1857 shows a black bull and a dun cow of the Jura fold. . . Gourlay Steell was a personal friend of the Highland Cattle breeder John Stewart of Bochastle. When he had completed a portrait of the famous Bochastle cow Proisag Dhubh he inscribed it “with the artist’s best regards.” A limited edition print of the painting was made by Hamish Wilson, the secretary of the Highland Cattle Society of Scotland in the 1990’s.” (Katharine Mackay, from A Keen Eye, Fact and Folklore on Scottish Highland Cattle by Una Flora Cochrane, Busdubh Publishing 1996.)
84 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
Gourlay Steell’s major paintings were frequently commissioned by some of the prominent breeders of the time, and some of these folds deserve more attention. Of lasting fame is the outstanding black cow, Proisag Dubh (783). Born 1877, she gained the following prizes at the Highland and Agricultural Shows, 3rd at Stirling 1881, 1st at Glasgow 1882, 2nd at the centenary show in Edinburgh in 1884 and 1st at Aberdeen in 1885. Proisag Dubh was to feature in one of Steell’s finest works entitled, “The Pass of Leny, Highland Cattle going to the Falkirk Tryst” painted around 1880. Also featured in this scene is the yellow cow Chaisionn Bhuidhe of Bochastle (781) along with her black heifer calf Dubh Chruinn. This picture highlights vividly the variety of colour within the Bochastle Fold, which was a feature of all the great highland folds of that era. I believe the title of this fine work to be somewhat misleading. Although the Pass of Leny was for almost two hundred one of the busiest drove roads from the Highlands to the great Falkirk Trysts, seldom if ever did one sell breeding cows with young calves at foot at such an event.
GOURLAY STEELL Callander was the McLaren High School that he funded and supported the program that eventually founded the school in 1892. The Campbells of the Isle of Jura were throughout the 18th and 19th centuries one of the largest fold owners in the Highlands with over 1,075 black cattle recorded at a public roup (sale) held on the Island on the 21st of May 1764, the proceeds of which were used to buy part of Jura from the Campbells of Shawfield who owned the Island of Islay at that time. At the sale thirty of the very best heifers were bought for £1 10s 6d each by Archibald Campbell son of the owner and it was from that purchase that the cow depicted in the painting by Gourlay Steell is descended. The black bull standing beside her is, Calum Dubh of Poltalloch (76) 1ST at the Highland and Agricultural Show held in Glasgow 1857 when three years old. The painting was commissioned by Archibald Denniston Campbell 8th of Jura in 1875.
Cattle Watering In A Mountain Stream.
The picture clearly depicts three herdsmen gathering a drove of cattle on the old drove road for close inspection by the gentleman on horseback who was probably a prospective buyer. John Stewart of Bochastle was in the habit of selling most of his female cattle privately and was often accused by his fellow breeders of selling too many of his best cattle. Many of these, however, went on to help found many great folds such as Ardtornish and Achnacloich. The Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland has in its possession one of Gourlay Steell’s finest works depicting a West Highland Cow and Calf, 1st in her class at the Highland and Agricultural Show in Perth 1861 and owned by Donald McLaren a banker in the town of Callander. He was also a tenant farmer of Corrychrone farm on the Ancaster Estate, where he established his Highland fold gaining a high reputation in the show ring throughout the 1860’s and 1870’s. His lasting legacy to the town of
Gourlay Steell was not the only artist to depict the Highland breed on canvas. However, his patronage by prominent breeders such as John Stewart, Donald McLaren, and the Campbells of Jura, intersected with the vivid public interest in a romanticized vision of the Scottish Highlands, combining to produce a remarkable visual history of some of these early folds.

Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018 115
BREED STANDARD Breed Standard
The description of the Highland male and female as published in the preamble to the first Herd Book is as valid now as then. The description may thus be termed the Breed Standard. Of all the representatives of our British bovine breeds, the Highlander has the grandest and most picturesque head; it is, indeed, to his head that he owes his great favour among artists. As a rule, it is most proportionate to the body of the animal, and is broad between the eyes, while short from the eyes to the point of the muzzle. The forelock between the eyes should be wide, long and bushy, and any nakedness or bareness there is certain to detract from the appearance of the animal. Some would almost have the hair so wide there as to obscure the eyes, but this in many cases would be allowing one good point to over-shadow another. The eyes should be bright and full, and denoting, when excited, high courage. When viewed sideways, there should be a proportionate breadth of the jawbones readily observable, when compared with the width of the head in front, whilst the muzzle should, when looked at from a similar point, be short, though very broad in front, and with the nostrils fully distended, and indicating breeding in every way. One of the most noteworthy features in a Highlander, is of course, the horns. In the bulls, the horns should be strong, and come level out of the head, slightly inclining forwards, and also slightly rising towards the points. Some, however, do not care for this rise, though any drooping is considered to be a very bad fault when between the crown and the commencement of the curve, as this is generally accompanied by a low weak back. Some, too, are of opinion that the masculine appearance is slightly detracted from when the horns rise directly from the crown. This, however, can only readily be detected and commented upon when particular animals are brought before experienced judges, as within a show ring. As regards the horns of the cow, there prevail two opinions. As a rule, they come squarer out from the head than in the male, rise sooner, and are somewhat longer, though they preserve their substance and a rich reddish appearance to the very tips. The lack of the appearance of substance or “sappiness” about the horns of the male would be very much against the animal in the showyard. The other taste is that for a female, the horns of which come more level from the head, with a peculiar back set curve, and very wide sweep. A large number of enthusiastic breeders seem to prefer, by comparison, the latter, which gives possibly the more graceful appearance. In all cases, however, the horns of a Highlander, when well set, gives the animal a stamp of nobility which causes it to attract the attention of any stranger who might pass heedlessly by animals of other breeds as merely cows, bulls or oxen. THE NECK AND SHOULDER The neck should be altogether clear and without dewlap below. It should form a straight line from the head to the shoulder in the
116 Highland Breeders’ Journal 2018
cow, but in the bulls should have that distinct crest common to all animals of the bovine species. This crest should come gracefully down to the roots of the horns, and, being well coated with wavy hair, the masculine appearance of the animal is fully completed. The shoulder should be thick and should fill out greatly as it descends from the point to the lower extremity of the forearm. BACK, BODY, AND HIND-QUARTERS From behind the shoulder the back should be fully developed and beautifully rounded. Any slight sinking or hollow is most decidedly objectionable. It should also, as in the Ayrshire, be as straight as possible, and the ribs should spring boldly out and be both well rounded and deep. When measured across the hips the breadth should be very great, and the quarters should be exceedingly well developed from the hips backwards. The thighs should also be well developed, and should show great fullness. Viewed generally, the quarters should be square between the hips and the tail, and from between the tail right down to between the hind feet. The legs, both before and behind, should be short and strong, the bones strong, broad, and straight, the hoofs well set in and large, and the legs well feathered with hair. The animal should be set wide between the fore-legs, and it should move with great dignity and style, as this is considered to be one of the most reliable evidences of careful and true breeding. HAIR The hair, of which there should be a great profusion, more particularly on the parts indicated, should be long and gracefully waved, very much as in what dog-breeders denote wavy-coated retrievers. To have a curl is to possess a decided fault, and one which has of late years become unfortunately too common in some folds. This has been attributed in some quarters to a growing desire to make Highlanders grow big from feeding them higher and housing them more. At any rate, experience goes far to prove that the more exposed they are the greater the profusion of the hair, and the less its tendency to curl. Thus, the reason of the island cattle being always so much better haired than the mainland cattle is owing to their never being housed in winter. The usual colours are black, brindled, red, yellow, and dun, and there is considerable difference of opinion among breeders as to which is preferable. In general, as to colour, it may be said that a good herd should possess a mixture - avoiding always all those which indicate unhealthy thrivers. The thickness of the skin, as in all fattening breeds, comes in for a considerable amount of attention, but it has to be borne in mind always that the Highlander has been adapted by nature to withstand great exposure. Inverness, 10th June, 1885.
SOCIETY FIELD OFFICERS List of Society Field Officers Members are reminded that the Society’s field Officers, Council Members and Members of the Breed Development Committee are available to give assistance on any aspect of breeding, rearing and management of their cattle. Any member requiring such assistance is requested to notify the Secretary. Field Officers do not provide any veterinary information that might be construed as veterinary advice. Prospective purchasers who are new breeders are strongly advised to seek the assistance of a field officer prior to acquiring a stock bull. Members requesting a field officer’s inspection, are reminded that if cattle are not ready, convenient, and properly restrained at the time of the fieldsman’s appointment a charge equal to the whole cost of the visit will be levied.
