Jean Duluth Guernsey Herd
One Of Greatest in u. S.,
Has Been Built Up By 10
Years Breeding For Size,
Color And Correctness Of
Type.

The Jean Duluth Guernseys are
known the world over-indeed Of
them is a worlds champion. From
coast to coast in America these won
derful cattle have carried off honors
in all the largest stock exhibitions
North Dakota may well take pride
in the great achievement of Geo. P.
Grout, q graduate of the North Da-
kota Agricultural College, who has in
built up this herd. Of the greatest
in the United States.
Mr.. Grout exhibited some of these
iGuernseys at the North Dakota state
fair this year and at the Grand Forks
county fair. and it was while he was
at the Grand Forks fair that The
Herald visitor asked him to tell how
he had developed this remarkable
herd in the short space of ten years.
The North Dakota Agricultural Col
lege conferred upon Mr.. Grout the
milton of the great work he has done.
Mr.. Grout graduated from this college
in 1908, and went to the University
Of Minnesota as assistant professor
in dairying. Three years later he
vent to take charge of the Jean Du-
Luth farms near Duluth and Nicxer-
son in Northeastern Minnesota. These
Farms were at that time stocked with
Red Pole cattle. grades and pure
breds. grade milking ShoSthorns, and
some purebred Guernseys.
Selecting Foundation Stock.
Mr.. Groat said: Among the
Guernseys there were five cows that
could perhaps make 400 pounds OF
butterfat with crowding. From the
one of these five hat seemed the
least promising l have built a beau
tiful young two-year-old bull. May
Rose Moonlight. who was first prize
winner at the Grand Forks fair and
the State fair at Fargo this year, and
last reg was first prize winner and
grand champion at the Tri-state fair
at Superior. This year he headed
the first prize herd at Grand Forks,
and is the sire of the first and second
prize senior calves at the Grand
Forks Forks fair, and the junior
champion heifer, Moonlight's Belle
and Moonlight's Cherie.

partner in the ownership of the Jean
Duluth farms. These farms were
named for the great explorer Jean
Duluth. One of these farms is ten
miles out of Duluth, and the other is
35 miles from Duluth, near Nicker-
son. These farms produce all the
hay for the stock. and are now sue
achievement in that cut over section.
One of the aims Of Mr.. Greats ex-
Fermentation is to adapt agriculture
to the soil and conditions there. He
has found it impossible to raise Glow
err there without the addition of lime.
The soil of the Duluth farm is COM
posed of gravel and clay, while the
land about Nickerson is very sandy
with no clay IL it, and no clay in the
sub-soil. Alfsffa. Mr.. Groat declares
to be the only salvation for it.
For years the Jean Duluth farms
had their own creamery. but now the
Nickerson farm sells cream to the
cooperative creamery at DuQuette.
about six miles from Nickerson, Of
which Mr.. Groat is president. The
Duluth farm sells it's cream in the
city. getting a premium on the sweet
cream.
Worlds Greatest Red Poles.
1t is a fact worthy of note hat
Mr.. Groat, while producing record
breaking Guernseys, has developed
also on the Jean Duluth Farms the
worlds greatest producing herd of
Red Poles. In speaking Of the Red
Poles he said:
I'm the constructive breeding Of
the Red Poles. I had worked out on
paper just what ] wanted to do, fig
uring on animals that couldn't be
born for ten years vet. But in this
I didn't get support, as the other
breeders found it easier to breed
dual purpose animals, producing
beef type, and claiming milk, with
on backing their cattle up with rec
ords.
I'VE sold great many of our Red
Poles in 1920, establishing at this
sale the highest price for Red Poles
In this country. Some were sold to
South America. The best producer
Of any breed or the Island Of Jamai-
ca was one Of III Red Poles. Our
Jean Duluth Beauty held the worlds
record of S91 pounds Of butterfat.
She is dead, but many of the herd
carry her blood. The nearest app
proach to her record was made by a
cow in Australia"

Minneapolis, Sept. 11.-Demand to-
day was just as strong for the best
class Of milling wheat and premiums
were all firm for hat kind. but the
shipping demand for ordinary and
poor was less broad and after the
good wheat had been selected buyers
began to shop for the less desirable
quality, getting considerable of it at
LOO cents declines. compared with
futures.
Durum wheat was firm compared
with average sales of Saturday. but
fancy did not sell at such premiums
as prevailed on lnat day. Winter
wheat was weaker in tone under
heavier offers from Montana.
Corn of fancy quality and good
color was wanted and sold at a better
price compared with futures, but the
ordinary run was unchanged. Oats
improved some. Rye was about
steady. Barley was improved but on
the average prices were unchanged.
Flax offerings were heavier but the
demand kept pace and prices were
firm compared with futures.

was coarse. and her only desirable
characteristic was a good constitution.
She was bred by Ex-Governor Hoard
OF Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin. She
reproduced well. AS a sire I used
Starlight Excelsior. who was light in
color. The first result of this mating
was Starlight's Contrast, an improve
ment on Contrast, but still not per-,

dark switch: This cow vas put on
test and on thr%ee-fourths of an I'D

production was due to the improve

constitution from her dam and her
production from her sire.

AT the same time we bought that
