been kept the farms for OF lesst one hundred
years They have not only been crossed with the other
old bIet DR. Of this section bnt wi the Devons and
hoItborDs and It'll retain most of the peculiar char
aceI sites Of the originals. Our best cattle, however,
are crosses between the common breeds and the De-
yOn,.'
Alex. Heron, near Connersyile, Ind, says:
"Tbe value of a bullock, at one year old, may be

This is certainly mistake since the cost from
Indiana lie stated at only $l4 each. Gershom
WiborD, Victor, Ontario County, N. Y, says:
Our old race of cattle is nearly extinct In color
they we're black brib0le or speckled; they had ho-
low backs, cat hams, and Topped horns. There were
among them, however. many noble specimens of work
irg oxen bDlocks and mix Our present cattle
consist of crosses of the old with the Devons,
Duihaus and Herofords. They are still improving,
running and more into the Durham, for the rea-
son that this breed for beef and milk is held in the
highest favor"
A. f. Dickinson and Others Committee of the
Farmers Club, Bedford, n. Y, cay:
1.-The Kind of stock now most profitable for us TO
raise is cOue as they are in great demand for milk

yslued also az sI; at two year., So valued at 80;
aid at three year. old $50 and valued at $50 %
each The cost Of transportation TO Ne~-YU by rail-
road IS about 81 20 EACH
We find tic Devons to be be best stock for labor,
or their cIcss with other breeds"
John Young of Forest Grove, Penn, says:

sidertd the best for DAIRY purposes Some me stock
