some detail in the report. Emphasis
is laid upon the development from
'the old system of grain farming with
its loss of sell fertility and unsatis-
factory returns to the producer" TO
the more recent system which mar
kets crops through the medium of
animals, thereby conserving the fer
tility of the soil and providing a bet
ter remuneration for the farmer"
The report continues:
"We in Wisconsin have learned that
livestock constitutes the mainstay of
our agriculture. BY marketing the
products of the soil through the me-
dunn of our animal industry, this
state has carried through the period
of hard times in manner which is
second to none: and the livestock
phase of our farming has become the
ideal of many states less fortunate
than ours.
SIN the pursuit of this industry it
has been we'll established that not on

of the utmost Importance that the
animals be well nutuled. In the con-
version of field crops into animal
products, feeding methods are of
prime Importance, and in this field
the experiment station plays an ex-
ceedingly important role"
