Is it as good as you can make it or AZ

Pure BRED STOCK
FOR THE FARMER
Scrubs Cost as Much to Feed
and Return No Profit,

1t is not necessary or even desirable
that farmers in general should breed
only show animals or that they become
fancy breeders. They do not have
the time nor the inclination TO get into
the show ring classes of breeders even
il they had the ability. but they do
need good stock in order TO make mon
ely, and they must depend upon the
breeders for this. Good live stock costs
no more TO raise than poor stock and
In many cases not rs much
Pure bred animais produce good mar
for all meat producing animals Scrubs
will not do this. no matter how they
are fed or cared for. Pure bred ami
mails will reproduce their good quail

that the farmer finds il necessary TO
purchase new herd boar il, order not
only to improve the quality OF his herd
but to actually prevent Its further de

brought these farm animals up from
their Wild state into the modern mon

are. and too much credit csunot be
given the men who devote their lives
to this work
Utility should be the wstchword on
the farm, and utility snimals should
be the only kind that should be found
there. Back OF all successful work in
raising farm animals and making
profit from them lies the breeders art.
and the nearer the farmer approaches
the perfect type OF the breed in his
farm animals the greater will be his
