NEED or GOOD DAIRY SlRES
Cheapest Investment Farmer Can
Make ls Purchase Of PURE Bred
Bull 10 Build Up Herd.

CBy RAY p. sPEER. Minnesota College
OF Agricultural
II has been demonstrated again and
again that the cheapest investment
that can be made by farmer who il
trying to build up the standard OF q
herd OF cattle lies in the purchase OF
good pure bred bull. il is not nee
essary 10 buy several high priced fe-
males ar q basis for the average herd,
nor is il economical.
A striking proof OF this has been
shown Oh the cattle show circuit al
various state fairs last fall. One OF
many instances will suffice. Recently
choose between two COWS with the
same Dam. but sired by different bulls,
for the female championship OF the
breed. So Btrikingly similar In type
was each OF them TO its own sire,
though the dam was the same, that
there was no trouble in distinguishing
between the two. The one that had
been produced by the more outstand-
ing sire was so superior 10 the one
that had been produced by the less su-
periur bull that there Was no trouble
about the selection
The principle illustrated is Of prsc-
tical value 10 the farmer who Is think
ing Of beginning d herd with limited
ca pital. or has a very common herd
that he desires TO grade up. An aver
age group Of calves will be far su-
perior 10 their commonly bred mothers
il q good pure bred bull is used. Such
q bun can be purchased very reason
ably if proper care is taken by the
purchaser.
