That diversified farming is the rule
IN at least some sections Of North
Dakota has been proven on several
occasions. Farmers of the great
Fiickertail are well aware Of the ad-
vantages of variety in farming, and
as a result there have been a large
number Of changes during the past
few years.
The raising Of grain has generally
been the chief occupation on farms.
but as old Father Times education
OF the people continues, the breeding
OF stock. carrying on of dairy opra.
lions on larger plan and other means
OF money making have supplanted
grain growing to a certain extent.
The breeding of stock is probably
carried on to larger extent than any
other occupation on North Dakota
farms outside of the wheat growing.
In raising stock there is large
amount of money for the breeder, and
the harvest" is almost continual.
The result of this diversification in
farming methods is, of course, the
breeding of some very fine stock.
Nearly every farmer taking up stock
breeding will specialize, and it will
not be long before North Dakota will
be looked upon not only as the great
wheat state, but also as the state in
which all kinds of pure bred stock is
found.
The number of breeders is already
large, and the following list, showing
the various kinds of animals breeded
by North Dakota stock growers is a
very interesting one:
