MAY ORDER MORE
PURE BRED CATTLE

The New Castle County Farm Bu-
reau has approved the second pure bred
dairy cattle project. Since the three
carloads of Holsteln cows arrived in
the county last spring there have been
numerous inquiries In regard to more
OF this class OF cows. As the greater
portion OF these Western cows freshen
in the fall, it is the desire to bring sew
eral carloads Of them into the county
this fall. Most Of these COWS will be
three to five years old and will be due
to freshen in few weeks. Cows Of this
class with good breeding will cost be-
tween $3.50 and $500.
1t might be stated that the farmers
who received the cows last spring have
reason to consider their money well in
vested. The cows are not only pro-
ducing well. but many of them have
heifer calves that are already worth
half the cost Of the cow. The demand
for pure bred dairy cattle is steadily
growing.
