MY DEAR slk:--fou received.
In answer To your inquiries as to the
advantages or dair ying. permit me to
refer to a few that occur to me at first
thought.
II you examine prices OF dairy pro-
ducts Tor the past Quarter or cen
Jury you Will md them steady and
remunerative' with less huctuation
than on any other farm products.
butter ana cheese 60 into quick con.
sumption. and hence the dairyman
realizes on his goods from week to
week. ana IS less cramped for ready
money TO carry on his business than
Is often the case with those growing
gram.
parry products are the most reli-
abe OF all crops. Grass or foliage
are less subject to insect enemies and
injury anu failure from other causes
IMAM almost any cultivated crop ;
there Is Also less expenditure OF la.
