of  the  annual  meeting  of  the  American  Soci 
ety  of  Animal  Production,  December  2,  1928. 

They  are  loved  by  their  associates 
and  trusted  by  their  constituents.  Hale 
and  hearty,  full  of  honors  and  in  the 
midst  of  lives  abounding  in  the  rich 
est  usefulness,  they  are  worthy  in  ev 
ery  way  of  our  warmest  congratula 
tions.  What  a  fruitage  of  the  years 
and  what  a  confirmation  of  the  hopes 
of  those  who  bred  and  reared  such  fine 
specimens  of  American  manhood. 

I n'  1868,  F.  B.  secured  the  start  of 
H.  W.  by  being  born  three  years  ahead 
of  him.  But  H.  W.  has  been  hot  upon 
his  trail  ever  since. 
It  has  been  neck 
and  neck  between  them,  with  advan

THEIR  F A M i U ES 
Both  these  men  were  happy  in  their 
marriage  relations.  Knowing  them  as 
we  do,  we  may  be  certain  that  so  im 
portant  a  step  was  taken  with  delib* 
eration,  foresight,  and  a  keen  regula 
tion  of  the  duties  as  well  as  enjoyment 
of 
and 
the  privileges  of  husband 
father. 

These  qualities  fully 

justified  Miss 
Jessamine  Kennedy  of  Hanover,  Mich 
igan,  in  accepting  Fred  as  her  yoke 
fellow  in  1895,  and  Miss  Lena  Crosby 
of  Lansing  in  casting  in  her  lot  with 
Herbert  some  three  years  later.  Here 
the  brothers  pursued  different  courses. 
While  Fred's  family  consists  of  four, 
all  girls,  Herbert's  numbered  five,  two 
girls  and  three  boys.  Of  all  this  lovely 
company,  only  one,  Jamie,  has  gone 
before. 

BOTH  STUDIED  ABROAD 

Both  these  men  have  had 

foreign 
contacts  under  rather  exceptional  cir 
cumstances.  F.  B.  was  a  student  at 
Leipzig  for  a  time  in  1900  and  at  Zur 
ich  in  1901.  He  served  creditably  as 
a  member  of  the  Mission  Americaine 
to  France  in  1919. 
de  Rapproachment 
Herbert  studied  livestock  conditions 
in  Great  Britain.  France,  Belgium  and 
Holland  in  1897  and  in  Argentine  in 

1908  and  served  on  the  American  com 
to  make  a  study  of

F.  B.  is  a  member  of  the  Missouri

Buffalo  and  Panama  expositions. 

Both  have  served  our  livestock  in 
terests  well;  they  have  been  loyal  to 
the  state  and  the  institution  they  were 
invited  to  serve.  In  all  these  they  have

t h r o u gh 

The  result  more  than  justifies  their  diligence, 
for  although  the Viking  90-degree  V-eight 
was  introduced  only  a  few weeks  ago, the 
A m e r i c an  public  has already  appraised 
it  as a  car of  exceptional  b e a u t y. 

The  Viking  is  a  low-swung,  trimly'tailored 
car  of  generous  size.  Sweeping  full-crown 
fenders,  graceful  hood,  and handsome  body 
contours all blend  into a pleasing,  beautifully 
proportioned  whole—at  once  fleet  in  appear 
ance  and  dignified  in  character. 
And  this  same  rich  harmony  of 
design  has been  carried  out to the 
last  detail in upholsteries,  appoint 
ments, and  all interior  decorations. 

Combined  with  this  beauty  and 
luxury  are the smoothness,  quiet 
ness, and perfection  of  performance 
of the ninety-degree, V-type, eight-
cylinder  engine.  The new Viking

to the  throttle is remarkable,  both in getaway

of the  new  Viking  V-type, eight-cylinder  en
