Bull Associations.

The first bull association in the Uni
ted States was organized ia 1908 by
the Michigan Agricultural college. 1t
was cooperative venture similar to
those which have existed in Europe for
a long time. On July 1, 1917, there
were in this country SO active associa-
lions in II states, with total mem
bership of /, 15S, owning 1S9 pure-bred
bulls. These cooperative organiza-
lions enable the owners of small herds
to unite in the purchase of one good
bull, so that each may own share in
a registered sire of high quality
Though still in It's infancy, the CO.
operative bull association movement
promises to become eventually a very
great factor in the Improvement OF
dairy cattle in the United States.

LINE BREEDING is FAVORED
Common and Desirable Practice is En-
couraged by Cooperative Bull
Associations.

CPrepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
A bull association having as many
as five or six breeding blocks should
keep and use all it's good bulls as long
as they are fit for service. Advancing
the bull to the next block at the end OF
two wears does not eliminate him; 1t
simply makes it possible to avoid in
breeding. Line breeding, on the other
hand. is a common and desirable prac-
flee. and the bull association offers ex-
ceptionaI opportunities for conducting
that kind of breeding. In an associa-
tion composed of breeders of pure
bred dairy cattle carefully selected
hills nroduced in one block may be
used in other blocks, and the organiza-
tion may thus continue indefinitely
without purchasing bulls from outside
soarces if such plan seems advlsa-
BILE. The same practice may be FOL
lowed when only a few high-class reg
istared COWS are owned by members
of any association. The cooperative
hul association, therefore, offers an
excellent opportunity for intelligent
Iong-continued breeding. Skillful mat
ing. when combined with careful Sc
lection of the best aniPals, makes
great Improvement possible.

sion service and started in to farm. All
the money he had was $3.50, but there
was no lack of energy and ambition in
his makeup-and that goes long way
in farming.
That $3.50, hard-earned money, too,
was the first payment on 100 acres;
and very poor horse and one COW
comprised the initial live stock.
Nerve and integrity, though, an
swered as security for another horse,
and careful management and good
financial judgment produced results
sufficient to enable this Woodworking
demonstration to make the second pay
ment on his place in the fall. This
was largely from receipts from butter,
chickens and eggs.
This is the account of the rest of
the achievements, told by the county
agent:
"The second year he bought better
team and was enabled to cultivate his
crop in the better way as he ex-
/ pressed it. The second year he met
his third payment and had some sur
plus funds left and was in a position
to go on a cash basis the next year
The fourth payment on his farm wa:
met promptly and with larger sur
plus of money than before. Besides, HI
had a number of good cows, hogs ant
horses, and a flock of chickens ant
turkeys. From this years work he hat
sold $1,650 worth of cotton and seed
marketed $72O worth of feed, beside
having enough on hand for farm us
next year, sold $40 worth of poultr
and now has over 100 hens on tn
farm. He has sufficient hogs for hi
meat and will offer for sale about $2O
worth besides.
"He has on the farm $500 worth G
horse stock, has some good mich COW
and has 81 $50 on deposit to his cred
3 in the local bank. He is erecting Ii
/ tie house and says that the farm an
: its happy associations are good enoug
e for him. The vital point Of this stoi
g of this farmers operations during Il
past four years is that he has pa
for his farm, is free from debt, an
A has placed himself upon a cash basi
s and has accumulated surplus WIN
