W. G. ANDERSON
W. G. ANDERSON, breeder of Short-Horn cattle, P. O. Ocheltree, was born in Warren County, Ohio, in May, 1839, and reared on a farm there, and after reaching the age of manhood carried on a stock farm until he sold out and came to Kansas in August, 1868, at which time he located on his present farm. He owns 240 acres all well improved for stock farming. He has for the past seven years given special attention to the breeding of Short-horn cattle. His stock is principally from the famous bull Oakland Favorite, which he used in his herd for several years; has now the noted bull "Constance Henry Second," bred by Ware & Berry, of Kentucky. Mr. A. has none but fine stock on his farm, imported from Ohio and Kentucky. He is also largely engaged in breeding Mambrino blooded horses and Poland-China hogs. He has one of the finest stock farms of this nature in the county, and several of his cattle have taken premiums at the fairs of Paola, Kas., and Kansas City, Mo.
