Of reaping The benefits 'hcy expected, and
their want oil success may discourage o.

ever, must be attributed TO the want Of
sgreen pastures. No man eau have good
stock ul caille without either good na'ur-
all pasrare or one that iscultivaied. The
fine English and kenIucEy cat,le do no,
owe their excellence TO blood alone, how.
ever important this may be, Oul TO rich
