RAISE THINGS.

Blood is the basis Of all profitable
ANIMAL husbandry. Long ago groupsof
animals we've developed for certain
purposes by the patient study, careful
selection and good feeding of fa1-
sighted men. Animals which had the
desired characteristics were mated In
successive generations, and in tho
course of time all animals in each
group came to have certain charac-
teristics. They were alike in form
and function and they bred after their
ownSlikeness In other words they
developed >prepotency, the power to
transmit their characteristics to NC
ceeding generations. We call these
