GETTING THE FARMER HTARTED
It seems to require a long time to
Induce many farmers to regard the
production of purebred livestock aa a
practical business. The teudency on
the part of many of them still la to
look upon it as a "fancy stock" busi
ness, merely. Through lack of famil
iarity with the resulta obtained in the
matter of increaaed production and
increased profits, tbey fall to under
stand the important part yhich pure
bred livestock can, and does, play in
mixed husbandry, regardless of loca
tions. In the matter of beef production, it
Is the introduction of pure blood that
make greater weight and better
quality, which at the market, brings
an tncreaed price per pound, and pro
vides an additional number of pou.
nda. The farmer who markets a load
of steers, carrying a large percentage
of improved blood will have a double
advantage more weight ana better
quality, and the buyers at the market
will pay for both. Whether the mar.
ket is high or low, the producer of
the Improved type always has the ad
vantage over the producer of the
Inferior types.
It seems to be a prevailing impres
sion, even among breeders, that it Is
not practical to raise purebred steers
for the market, but experience has
shown times without number that
there is more profit in purebred
steers than In grade steers and very
often, very much more profit in pure
bred steers than in purebred bulls.
The breeder who holds the opinion
that all his bull calves should be dis
posed of tor breeding purposes hag a
mistaken notion. It would be a God
send if a considerable portion of the
bull calvea produced by the average
breeder would find their way to the
market a steer. There la a great
deal of aatiatactlon in putting out and
finishing a lot of well bred calve a
steers. They are handled with a min.
lmum of inconvenience and respond
readily to teed and when they go to
market the find a ready sale at ad
vanced prices.
The farmer who attempt to grade
up hi cattle from a common founda
tion has a long road to travel, though
every successive cross of purebred
sires shows a forward stride, even so
it is a long road. From the time the
first purebred sire is used until his
daughters are of producing age is
three years, or a trifle more, and
these are only halt bloods. Another
cross is Introduced and three quarter
bred heifers are of producing age and
ten years have passed by the time the
heifers of the third cross are produc
ing. How much more profitable it
would be if the tamer began with
purebred heifers, not necessarily sim
ilar numbers, but with a few obtained
at a moderate plane of prices. The
accumulation of profits during a per
iod of ten years is so overwhelmingly
in favor of the purebreds that (tUere
is no room for argument.
In most cases it would be desirable
to put in from two to one half dozen
purebred femnles of whatever class
the farmer feels that he can afford;
then retain the female increase,, dis
posing of the bulls, either tor breed
ing purposes or as steers, whichever
seemed to be the appoprinte thing to
do, and gradually sell oft the grades
as the purebreds Increased In number
This would result in a purebred herd

obtained for the coat of keep and the
Interest on the original investment
There is no more practical plan for
a farmer to become possessed of a
herd of purebred cattle than this.
There are numerous Instance where
this has been done and the results
have been of an encouraging nature.
What every man, who occupies a
farm and grows livestock, must rec
ognize is this that we have long since
passed the time when Inferior live
stock standard may be grown with a
profit, and that life la too short to at
tempt to grade up from a common
foundation to the level that satisfac
torily meets the conditions.
We will never have too many pure
bred livestock in this country nor will
we ever see the time that our pure
breds will all represent the desired

plane of excellence. ' There is a dif
ference in purebred standards Just
aa there i a difference in the merit
of grade and the better standards
invariably yield a better return.
It makes quite a difference to the
farmer whether there is a ready de
mand for his product. Whether the
buyers look eagerly in hla direction.
It not only makes a difference in his
profits, but it has a good deal to do
with hia contentment and this conten
tment rests very decidedly with the
man who is producing purebreds of
the desired standard. They can be
grown in Illinois, in Alabama, North
Dakota, California, or Maine, or any
other state in these United States. It
la just a matter of individual Judg
ment in selection and reasonable care
and attention. Purebred stock are

adapted to every farm and the sooner
the farmers take advantage of this
tact, the larger the profits that wilt
accrue to them.
In justice to the situation it should
be stated that for the paat two years .
we have witnessed the greatest Incli
nation on the part of farmers to sub.
stitute purebred for grades, because
of the cost of maintenance and the
tendency in this direction Is greater
now than ever before. However, there
are yet many thousands of farmers,
land owners and tenants, who have .
failed apparently to observe this ten
dency and have tailed to recognize
this basic fact that the production of
purebred livestock la a practical busi
ness, much more practical in tact,
than the production of grades or in
ferior standards. ;
