of dairying to be followed may be
largely controlled by the markets. In
some cases the markets form in es-
sential condition, but modern facilities
for transportation make the location
of the dairy farm with relation to its
markets comparatively unimportant.
Like almost all other occupations at
the present day. dairying has become
divided into several! distinct and spe-
cial lines. These differ mainly as to
the form of product and the manner
of disposing Of it. Milk or cream may
be produced for delivery to consumers.
and this delivery may be direct or in
direct The same products may be de-
livercd to a factory for manufacture
into butter or cheese, or the milk prod
uct of the herd may be worked up at
home and there converted into butter
or cheese. The prudent dairyman
should first consider which line of
business he will pursue. In so doing

for veal or for growing as steers.
Even If such animals are not so pro-
ductiye while in the dairy their meat

it. There are two or three of the es-
tablished breeds of cattle which claim
to possess combined qualities for meat
and milk. On the other hand, many

cattle of the distinct class or type es
