No Profit in Winterlng Poor
Animals.

Now is the time to get rid of the
poorer animals. 1t will not pay to
winter them, as better animals will
give larger returns for shelter, care
and feed. 1t is not economy to keep
a poor animal through any season
but it is most eXtravagant to keep
it through the winter. 1t is the
height of folly in stock raising to
sell the best and keep the worst.
True, the best bring the largest prize
es but if you sell the best and keep
the worst, soon your best will be no
better than your worst is now, and
your worst will be such that the
more you have the poorer you will
be. You, by this plan, constantly
make your animals poorer and as
the stock raiser makes his animals
poorer he makes himself poorer. If
he keeps up the process, bankruptcy
is as sure as fate. The opposite
policy is the winning policy. Sell
the poorest and retain the best. And
sell enough of your poorer animals
that you may buy few better than
the best you have. This is making
your animals constantly better and
yourself richer. Soon your worst
will bring as much as your best now.
If you have not pure-bred animals,
sell enough scrubs or grades to buy
an animal of each sex, pure-bred
Hold fast to the full-blooded produce
and to the highest grades. Almost
before you are aware of it YOU will
have only pure-bred animals. If
once we start with pure-bred ami
mails, the increase of breeding makes
us rich in flocks and herds of the
best blood in what, when the goal
is reached, seems a very short time.
