will oon have a herd of merit He
will gradually build a reputation as a
breeder that will last for his lifetime.
1t need not be inexpensive matter
financially to develop such a herd.
They should be made to pay their way
and more too in the sale of dairy prod
ucts. the owner should not expect to
build up a great reputation in a year.
He should first Of all bring his herd
to a position where it deserves to be
well known. Then he must see that
1t is brought to the attention of the
people Of the state.
AS to how rapidly a herd will in
crease, it might be said that the pres
ent herd Of Holsteins at the University
of Missouri, owned by the dairy de-
partment, nov numbers 35 head. These
are all descendants from four cows
which were purchased by the writer
in 1902 at a cost of $3.50. Animals
nave been sold from this herd for
breeding purposes to the amount of
five times the cost price, and we have
over 80 females now which are worth
at least ten times the cost of the
foundation stock.
Things that make the manure
spreader pay for itself are:
|. It spreads the manure moro
evenly.
2. It makes a little go a long way.
8, It causes the farmer to take bet
ter care Of the manure and more of it
reaches the field.
4, 1t saves labor.

come. a considerable part OF the milk
produced for market comes from herds
where no young stock is raised. AL
though this is a bad practice, it should
be taken into account as one of the
factors that operates to keep up the
price of cattle.
The great mass of the cattle that
supply the market with dairy products
is, and should continue to be, grade
rather than pure bred. 1t is not every
on who is situated to undertake the
breeding Of pure bred cattle, and it
would be a mistake to over emphasize
this line Of farming, In fact, it is
more often necessary to warn the be-
ginners against spending too much
money and expecting too much from
pure bred cattle, than it is to urge
them to take UP this line.
A beginner in the pure bred live
stock business has a good many things
to learn. He should first of all learn
that it takes a5period of years to build
up a reputation that will enable him
to sell his stock to advantage. When
breeding pure bred dairy cattle, the
sale Of dairy products should be count
ed on to pay the running expenses, and
then, when the herd is so far devol-
oped and the reputation Of the breeder
so established that it is possible to
sell breeding stock to adyantage,Sthe
income from the breeding stock is
additional profit.
The beginner in the pure bred live
stock business should understand that
he must have a good herd, and next,
