ny :. G. MILLER)
IN the raising OF cattle it is neces
sary to have clearly defined standards
before the eyes of the mind. stand.
ard is mental picture of what tho
breeder desires. Without such a stand.
ard all breeding will be without an OBJ
lect and will generally attain to moth
ing of Importance.
The country is full of cattle breed
ers who have no standard. They buy
and sell any kind of COWS and breed
to any kind of bull that happens to
be handy. They have done more to
pull down standards than to bring
them up They have had standards
brought before them. but have not
adopted any. If their children go on
breeding as their fathers are breeding
they will not make any progress in
a thousand years of effort.
The standard of the breeder of
fancy cattle is not the same as the
standard of the breed of animals for
the butcher. Each must have stand
ard of his own. The breeder of ami
mails to be sold at a high price for
breeding animals must have a stand
ard before his eyes that has already
been set by the cattle judges. The
nearer his animals come to that stand
ard the higher will be the prices they
will bring.
All the animals that sell at high
prices at the great auction sales are
those that come close to the ideal
standard of perfection established by
the judges. Most of the high-priced
animals have taken prizes at the great
shows. Some beef bulls have been
held at $4,000 because in the great
competitive contests they won frs,
place.
The breeder of fancy stock must

therefore have this kind of standard
before him, and for that reason he
should make himself familiar with the
great prize winners in the cattle ring
The standard may be faulty, but if so
he has no recourse but to follow il.
Every departure from the accepted
standard will mean lessened chance
to sell his animals at high prices.
Most OF our common farmers who
are breeding cattle are not raising ami
mails 10 sell as breeders, but animals
which shall go to the butcher when
fitted for it. They do not care as much
about the rules of the show ring az
they care about the standards that are
found in the great stock yards in
which animals are purchased for
slaughter.
If they study the standards OF those
yards they will find that the buyers
do not care anything for markings or
colors. They do not care whether an
animal is grade or pure-brcd So long
as he has the right kind of meat on
him and that meat placed to the best
advantage. More than once a grade
steer in the stock Yards has brought
a higher price than the pure-bred by
his side
The farmer who breeds cattle out of
which to make meat needs to work as
near to some one beef breed as posi-
BILE. The higher his grades are the
more they will be sought after by the
cattle buyers, and consequently the
higher the price that will be paid
for them. A buyer of cattle who has
grown old in the business says that
he picks out his steers largely on the
degree to which they approach some
of the established beef breeds, for
those breeds are all beef producers
