THE FARMERS OPPORTUNITY.

To thoughtful persons the prices
brought at the public auction sales of
cattle in Brattleboro by the Purebred
Live Stock Sales Co. constitutes a
striking demonstration of the advantage
Of tying up to registered stock. When
1913 animals can be gotten together from
all directions and sold for $50, 100, or an
average of over 1917, as was done at
the Vernon street pavilion this week,
it is time for the farmers who are
spending their time and energy on scrub
stock to look about with a view to de-
tcrminng whether they are doing as
well as they might.
Not every farmer or dairyman can
afford to pay $500 for a COW, as F. II.
Metcalf of Holyoke did, or even 81 900,
as was done in three instances at this
sale, but that isn't necessary. By CO.
operating with each other the farmers
in any community could secure a val
liable sire without entailing heavy ex-
pensc upon any individual, and by be-
ginning in small way they could
build up herds which soon would yield
large dividends. The cream of the
registered cattle business goes to a
comparatively small proportion of the
dairymen of the country because the
rest are content to let them gather it
and are not alive to the possibilities
within their reach. And this applies
not to the farmers in some far-on Sec
ton of the country but to many of
those right in this locality.
Thus far the auction sales locally
have been limited to animals of the
IIolstein breed, but it is understood
that that is because owners of other
brccds have not been quite ready to
grasp the opportunity that has been of
fered them. 1t is probable that sale
of some other breed will take place as
soon as n degree of interest sufficient to
warrant it is awakened.
