The appointment of men who breed
one kind OF cattle to Judge at the fairs
another kind is not healthy practice.
The breeds all differ In certain pecul-
larities. Suppose a breeder Of Ayr
shires IS appointed to judge Jerseys
Such a Judge win be almost sure TO
discount Jerseys with the back much
swayed, as the Ayrshires have straight
backs. On the other hand, suppose n
breeder Of Jerseys Is asked to judge
Ayrshires He Is not inclined 10 dis
count the swayback in the Ayrshire

discount the same. It is different
with the men who teach at the agricul-
tural colleges. It is their duty 70 study
