IMPORTED STOCK.

The present high price Of thoroughbred
stock, while it limits the breeding to men
of capital, does not necessarily pre-
vent the ordinary farmer from procuring
male animals wherewith to improve his
native stock. A stock of grade COWS for
the dairy may be gradually gathered up
by the expenditure of from fifty to two
hundred dollars. Many breeders of Jer-
sey cattle will dispose Of a young bull calf
for very small sum because its color does
not suit their taste, while in respect to its
pedigree or other useful qualities, it may
be faultless. Such an animal, purchased
young and well cared for, will become
useful for raising calves, at a year old. A
yearling heifer of his get will, by the use
of another such animal become profitable
at two years old, and its calf will be three
quarters bred, and it is quite likely to be-
come as valuable for the dairy as a pure
bred animal that could not be purchased
for less than $500 to $400. The produce
of this cowlwould be seven-eighths bred,
and if care is taken in selecting the pa
rents, would show little difference from en-
tirely pure animals. Cooperation among a
few neighbors who would each procure and
keep young bull whose services they
might exchange with each other to prevent
close breeding, would soon change the ap-
pearance as well as the productive quail
ties of the stock of quite large district.
The main point to be guarded against is
not to breed from any but pure stock. All
male grade animals should be emasculated
or go to the butcher, while young
The use of a grade bull ought not to be
permitted. Here is where many a mis-
take is made. In the course of four or
five years, quite herd of three-quarter
or seven-eighth-bred animals would. ac-
cumulate, and the profit would begin to
come in. Ayrshire and Jersey cattle
should be the breeds aimed at, as these
are excellently fitted for the dairy, and
are profitably fed for the butcher on ordi-
nary farms. They are exceedingly tract
able, quiet and orderly, are large mixers.
and yield much butter of good color and
flavor. The Devon and Durham are bet
ter for the grazier, and would be more
suitable where beef is the object aimed at
But whatever the breed chosen, care
should be taken to avoid neglect, or loss
win inevitably ensue. We have known
cases where money has been invested in
thoroughbred stock which has been treat
ed as though its blood alone would be suf-
ficient to protect it from neglect, exposure
and starvation. The natural consequence
of such a mistake was made ground of
complaint against the breeder, and led to
dissatisfaction and disgust. The old
adage, ''blood will tell" true as it may
be, is no talisman against such an error.
The refined nature of an animal carefully
bred throug many generations, will often
enable it to sustain much i'll treatment,
but it will not thrive under it. When
possessed of such ii specimen of stock,
give it fair treatment-pampering is un-
necessary, as it is unwise-but care and
proper feed and attention will make the
investment profitable one.-Americ an
