Yes. raising of purebreds is all right
for the fellow who has lots of them.
but how are the chaps who have only
few animals to sell going to get rid
of them? The big fellows have rep
utations. and know the big buyers per-
sonally, but farmers like me who
have a small surplus of purebreds for
sale are often up against it,"
This is substantially what William
Brown told his county agent one after
noon while discussing difficulties he ex-
perienced in getting fair price for Il
few Of his fine Herefords Fortunately
the county agent was able to tell him
of a marketing service designed to
make the selling of purebred animals
easier for the large and snail breeders
alike. The agent showed Brown that
the United States department of agri-
culture, in cooperation with the state
agricultural colleges, county agents
and local cooperative associations. has
undertaken the task of introducing
brecders-buyers and sellers--to~ each
other. And the intrOductions are not
confined to stochInen il the same coun-
ty or state.
Listing Pu-ebreds in Counties.
Already in number of counties
the location. age. number and breed of
purebreds is t&5Ulated and placed on
file in the Office of the county agent
In some cases monthly reports are pre-
pared, showing the number of animals
for sale and these are published by
the state agents in marketing. An
essential to the plan is the cO-oDera-
ton of breeders within the county.
Usually the farm bureau or county
agents Office Is the headquarters for
the local cooperative association ana
the county agent acts as its Secretary.
Thus a working unit is formed which
can be readily fitted into the state and
national system of listing all Durebred
animals. Many a farmer living in a
community where such information
has not been collected IS unaware OF
persons within a comparatively short
radius Of his farm who are engaged
in raising purebred stock.
The state field agents of the bu-
reau of markets, cooperating with the
animal husbandman of the state col
Iece, are a second important factor in
the general plan. They aim TO assist
BUYERS either inside or outside the
state. They also aid county agents in
finding animals for club members and
arrange trips for out-of-town buyers,
