Many a farmer planning to embark
in the dairy business asks himself the
question. What is the best breed for
me to keep If he has no special in
dividual preference 1t will probably be
best for him to select a breed OF which
there are the most representatives In
his locality. Splendid results have
been had with all Of the leading dairy
breeds. which In the last analysis
means that success In dairying de-
ponds considerably more upon the man
and the care he gives his cows than
upon the breed chosen.
