gets them. Seeing is believing and
the valuation of any good pure bred
animal is limited only by the skill of
the breeders into whose hands it may
fall. For instance Frank Harding of
Wisconsin, has made over two hundred
thousand dollars from the purchase of
one good bull. Nearly all his sales
have been made at public auction.
o. S. West of Paullina, Iowa, sold the
Duroc boar, Crimson Wonder, at
private sale for $50. In very short
time after this great boar sold at over
$500 and the man who paid that price
made more than the man who got the
s4OO.
We would be pleased to hear from
all who are interested in this coming
institute and sale. Address The
Ranch, Livestock Editor. Kent, Wn.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-11-15

A pure bred swine sale and breeders
institute will be held at Kent, Wash
ington on Feb. 2, 3, and 4. Many
breeders have already agreed to con-
tribute and have already consigned
from two to fifteen hogs each. The
sale will be made up of the three
popular breeds, Poland Chinas, Berk-
shires and Durocs. 1t is hoped to
have about fifty head of each breed.
About half this number are already
contributed.
Considering the present profits in
pork, raising the Institute part of
it will be we'll worth coming five hum
dred miles to attend. Prominent
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-11-15

breeders from Washington, Oregon
and Idaho will be present. Several
breeders from Nebraska contemplating
a western trip promise to be present
and to tell OF the swine breeders sue
cess in the central states. Prominent
professors, state farm scientists and
other prominent instructors and
speakers will be present. The initial
meeting will be held on the evening
of Feb. 2. Another meeting will be
held on the forenoon of Friday, Feb.
3rd. At one O'Clock of the same day
the sale will begin. Ten hogs of each
breed will be sold in the order OF
Polands, Durocs and then BerkShires.
The second day the sale will begin at
the same hour but the order of the
breeds will be reversed. Seventy five
hogs will be sold each afternoon.
Other institute sessions will be held
on Friday evening and on Saturday
forenoon. A banquet will be rendered
to all out of town farmers, breeders,
prospective buyers and institute at
tendants. A big time, profitable
and big sale is assured.
The sale will be held under the di-
rection of the live stock editor of The
Ranch. Mr.. Burt has had fifteen
years experience among the swine
breeders of Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois
and Missouri. He will make all
arrangements for this sale and insti-
tute without expectation Of profit or
recompense. The simple assurance
that the burden of the selling will be
borne by those who will Immediately
profit by the sale of their hogs is all
that is desired or hoped for.
In reply to our letter one breeder
writes, cit is evident that almost a
Uniform price is being made over this
state and Oregon for spring boars,
namely $25 each. Now l paid good
stiff price for most of my breeding
stock while L know breeders who seem
to think any kind of stock will do SO
long as they get recording papers with
the hogs. And yet I fnh it very
difficult to get from So. so to S. more
for 200 pound pig at six months old
than he does for the same weight at
from eight to ten months old. -
Surely every breeder who desires to
sell his surplus pure bred stock at a
fair valuation will be patron of this
institute and ssle. 1t is touching
elbows that makes good breeders as
we'll as good soldiers.
Even without the institute, the
public sale is the only way. Breeders
get together and compare. The breed
ers themselves may be buyers of a
few of their neighbors for change of
blood, but the great advantage is
through the conviction of new be-
ginners, who in nine cases out of ten
come to the public sale only through
curiosity. The ocular demonstration
