MODELING CHAMPION STALLION: Avard T. Fairbanks, Ann Arbor sculptor, is shown with his nearly completed clay model of Obusier, 189153, rated the best imported stallion at the International Livestock show in Chicago last fall and owned by E. A. Hunter of Ann Arbor. The horse was added to the Dhu Varren Farms herd of outstanding Percherons last month. The clay model is to be cast in bronze and one model will be sent to Michigan State College for exhibition purposes.

ACQUITTED OF KILLING OWNER: In a public trial, conducted with deadly seriousness, a jury of 12 men on the Isle of Jersey, acquitted the bull shown above, Brampton Beau, of killing his owner. The alternative was public execution. The bull recently arrived from the Isle by way of Chester, N. Y., at the Dhu Varren Farms, Whitmore Lake Rd., where he will remain for one year when he will be shipped back to his owner, Edmund Butler of Chester, N. Y. He is a register of merit bull. Shown holding the bull, above, are Cyril Spike, left, and Eber Baker, right, who say that the story about the former owner's death made a more lasting impression on their consciousness than the story of the Bull's acquittal for alleged complicity in the death.
