In the breeding Of superb Of Aiphea Rex the
above strains are so skilliuDy crossed so Judi,
ciousy combined aud so tremendously blended
as to insure the highest atansbe results IN color
form and butter producing qualities Man! oulls,
none Of them his superior aud some BY no means
his equal In cost, beauty OF breeding, are stand
ing at from $40 to $3.50, but, looking to the III
ture and desiring to encourage the breeding OF
,erseys in our Valley, TO which i IS pecuharily
adapted, we have decided to permit HIM 10 serve
limited number Of approved COWS at SO each'
cash at time Of service cows viii receive same
care and attention as our own no cha &c iOi Keep
ing but they will be at owners risk.
BY our system Of breeding we think that our
friends eau be reasonably sure OF obtaining heller
calves:
