SELECTING THE

There is much In the statement that
the bull Is half the herd. especially la
It is the purpose Of the farmer to raise
his desirable heifer calves, and the sue
cessful dairymen cannot afford to do
otherwise.
The bull should be-selected with con-

they show the ancestry Of the animal.
and If in this ancestry there are found
animals that have made good dairy
records It may be reasonably expected.
that the calves secured from this sire
will be of superior merit. II. on the
other hand, the ancestry OF the animal
does not include animals Of exception
al merit it would indicate that little
would be gained by Ills use. and search
should be continued until more de-
sirable animal is found.
The bull Is supposed to get his dairy

grandams on both the maternal and

carefully to his mother. as 1t Is quite

Importance. especially In those breeds
Of cattle such as the Jerseys and Ayr

popular material for smart
shoes and ties this season.
