COMMUNICATED.
Mr.. EDITOR:
In your issue of the 29th ult., 7 en-
deavored to show that our energetic
farmers were making rapid progress in
the field department. of husbandry, and
promised to give you some of my crude
notions on the subject Of, cattle improve
ment. That there is room for improve
1nent no one will deny, and every enter
prising farmer who has any pride in his
farm and its surroundings, must be de-
sirous of doing something in that direc-
tom, if he could see how it could be done
at o. reasonable cost. IT'S true that we
have an abundance Of cattle, such as
they are, but al least fifty or sixty per
cent. Of them, are very inferior, unprofta-
BE for milk, butter or beef, and adds
grace to good farming costing as much
to keep as the very best kind.
Etis the experience and practice of
many of the best farmers and dairynian
Of New York and Pennsylvania that
mixers raised from native cattle, sired
by PURE BRED bulls, make the best and
most profitable stock for all farming pur-
poses. Now if this is SO (and there is no
reason to doubt IT'D then we have abund-
antmaterial to improve on.
u Scattered all over our County we have
native grades Of the Devon, Ayrshire,
Jersey, Durham and Brahmin, besides
many of our common breeds, having
good milking and beef qualities.
y w We want, then, PURE FLOODED bulls.
Have we them in our country and if SO,
how are we to know it, and how are we
TO utilize them? I would suggest to
those who have them, or grade cows or
heifers, Or good common breeds, to pre-
pare the best they have. This must be
done by extra feeding, haltering and
handling them, so MS to make them do
cile and manageable. Thus prepared,
let them be exhibited at our County Fair
to be held in October next, when every
convenience will be Afforded for their
shelter and protection. We will then
see what we have, and what we really
want, and perhaps we can select and
purchase such as we may need for breed
ing purposes and, in addition, will have
an exhibition of cattle that will surprise
us and do credit to the County, and be
the means of stimulating our farmers to
go ahead and strive to excel.
/ would further suggest that the Or
angeburg Agricultural and Mechanical
Association, as soon rs they can make
the necessary arrangements on their Fair
Ground, purchased No. 1, pure blooded
Ball, of the kind that best suits our eli
mate and section of country, to be kept
on their grounds, and reasonable charge
made for all animals put to him. 1t
would pay them, benefit the farming in
terest, and would be carrying out one Of
their avowed objects-the keeping Of
pure blooded stock animals on the farm.
Never put q good COW to an IMPURE
bull, but be sure, always, to have the
MALE of the PUREsT BLOOD.
