FOR STOCK BREEDERS.
The First Requisite Is to Know Precisely
What You Want

what Aou want.
In breeding each animal stands not as
an individual. but as the representative
of long line If ancestors. each exert
ing some influence in generation. If
these ancestors are all substantially
alike in the qualities sought to be re-
produced, or better still, if the qualities
show an increasing development from
generation to generation the animal
VIII almost certainly prove very pre-
potent in transmitting these qualities.
On the other hand, If the ancestry IS a
mixed lot-good. bad and Indifferent
Of diverse and inconsistent attributes.
no matter now perfect the animal itself
may be, it is for breeding purposes q
scrub.
IN breeding then. the first requisite
is 70 know precisely what you want.
In cattle whether milk or butter or
beef, or all in somewhat less degree: in
horses, speed or style or strength; in
sheep, wool or mutton or both. It is
essential also to know Something Of the
various improved breeds. their charac-
teristics and their tendencies, their
strength and their weakness. Then
select as your foundation stock. or if it
is proposed to breed up from nature,
cows or common mares, select as the
head of your herd an animal in which
the qualities you seek are race charac-
teristics, or at least strong family traits.
Afford the offspring every opportunity
to full development, retaining only for
breeding purposes those which do de-
velop in the line desired, and success is
as certain as any thing human can be.
1t ought to be as easy to predict with
accuracy the quantity and quality of
milk an unborn calf viii give when it
becomes a COW as to know the color it
viii have and the general form il will
attain. That it is not possible to do
SO is an evidence that our stock, even
the best, is not bred up to its full capac-
it, for milk. nor so well bred in this
respect as for the more obvious traits of
form and color.
Breed. then, SO that you will be able
to predict the result. Do not be misled
by individual excellence Individual ex-
cellenee is of course the end to be at

that You can repeat it at viii, and not
as mere chance. Ia this view renem-
Der that an animal from a breeders
standpoint represents its entire ances-
