Old Bulls.

We have never been able to under
stand just why the average buyer dis
eliminates against an old and tried sire
in favor of a yearling calf, which, how
ever good he may be, has yet to prove
his value. There are hundreds and
thousands of three, four and five-year-
old bulls sent to the shambles every
year when they are right in the prime
of their usefulness: The man who is
grading up a native herd Or who has
small herd of pure breds will find that
he uses as sires those that have been
tried and found not wanting. In buy
ing a fve-year-old sire the purchaser
always has an opportunity to see his
calves and thus can know just exactly
what to depend upon. He is taking the
smallest possible chances. Not only
this, but as a rule an animal at this
age can be purchased cheaper than q
yearling that has been nicely fitted up
and prepared for sale. To our way of
thinking there is no room for choice
between them, keeping in mind all the
