A cheap and convenient way for poor
man to get a fine stock of cattle is to buy
q male calf of some improved breed, such
as Aderney, Ayrshire, Devon, Durham or
H0lstein. From one to two hundred dol
lars will procure a pure blooded calf. In
two years one can have Il fine bull, and half
blooded stock from a good number Of COWS
and, by hiring him out to the neigboTs, one
can soon get the price of the animal back.
Besides, in Il few years, the farm may be
stocked with three-fourthS and seven eigthS
blood, which is practically as valuable for
every thing hnt propagation as lnll-b!oodcd
