Improving Live Stock on OHIO
Farms.

FdEIu5s
In the past, Ohio has been the cen
ter of live stock improvement for
America. Our studs, herds, aocks
and feed lots have been the Mecca"
of men desiring breeding, butcher and
work animals. To maintain our posi-
tion at the head of the live stock bus
mess it is essential that we should
continue to improve, says Il q Will
liams, Instructor in the Department
of Animal Husbandry of the College
of Agriculture at Colum bus, o.
Although nature has given Ohio a
combination of people, climate, soil
and location which cannot be excelled
anywhere for stock raising, 1t must
be remembered that good stock is not
the result of haphazard methods.
Rigid adherence to the most
approved methods of breeding,
feeding, care and management, and
skill in selecting, buy ing and selling,
are the chief factors which shall de-
termine our future development.
