SECRET OF SUPERIOR FINISH
Animals of Improved Breeding Excel in Feed Lot, at Market and on
 Butchers Block.

Why are some feeders able to finish their cattle more economically and more rapidly than other feeders who feed cattle of the same age? Why dc some fat cattle top the market while others sell a dollar, maybe three dol lars, below the top. Why are a great many consumers of meat willing to pay 8 cents a pound for prime beef steak while they would reject inferior steak at half that price?
 Because animals of better breeding are superior in the feed lot, at the market, and on the butchers block. Why are wellbred animals superior? Because they have been bred for per formance and have been selected ac- cordingly for many generations. Have not scrubs been bred for performance? Decidedly not. The breeders of scrubs have had no future in mind. They have been bred for no definite improve ment. Naturally then there are many very undesirable qualities in every scrub A scrub bull will sire no two calves alike. He tears down a herd while a good purebred bull builds up a herd.

Too often the comfort of the swine herd is the last thing to be consid- cred on the farm but it has been fully demonstrated that hogs will quickly and liberally repay for extra attention given them.
