Do not make a basiy choice, for nothing will ruin your chances of success more certainly than frequent chsnges from one breed to another. Select your breed with csre ur.d then stick to IL All tbe leading breeds have good points, and the mat ter of selection is more a question of individual preference than nnythlug else. ! In beginning with pure bred stock the best "plan for tbe average farmer to follow la to purchase a pure bred mnle of the desired breed and proceed to grade up bis herd. There are two principles of breeding that should be kept lu mind in this work. The flrst Is the old law that "like produces like.' In the main this law holds good, and, other things being equal, the offspring will resemble the parents. The second is he law of "atavism," or the tend ency of the offspring to take after some remote ancestor. This Is where the value of tbe pure bred sire comes In. His ancestors for generations have been animals of the same type as bim self, and hence there is little chance of his progeny differing from this type to any serious extent. This long con tlnued breeding along a certain line gives to tbe pure bred animal an null Itv to reproduce his type that the grade sire lacks. This ability Is called prepotency. Because of his great prepotency pure bred bull when mated to grade cows has raucn more innuence over the characters of his offspring than tbe mothers have. This is most striking ly shown when a polled bull Is mated to horned cows. Mne out of every ten of the calves will usually be polled. It Is the same with other characteris ticsthe ability ' to quickly turn corn into high priced beef or to use the feed for profitable milk and butter produc tion. Of course if the cows are pure bred also there la less chance of the calves resembling some inferior ancestor on their mother's side, and Improvement will be more rapid and certain. The cost of an entire herd of pure breds is very great, however, and profits will come more surely by the grading up plan. After this has been carried on for a time, so that the farmer has some experience in breeding and car ing for high class stock, a gradual start in mire bred females may be made by buying a cow and calf or a few yearling heifers. As the offspring of these Increase the number of pure breds In the herd the grades can grad ually be disposed of until an entire pure bred herd finally results. In the selection of a sire to begin grading up a herd It Is important that he be of the type which It is desired to reproduce In the offspring. The most Important things to look for In a beef bull are constitution, form, quality and thick fleshing. Of these constitution Is probably the most important, as a bull that Is strong in this point will have tbe ability to sire a large num ber of rugged, healthy calves. -Constitution is Indicated by a deep, wide chest; large "barrel," giving plenty of room for the digestive organs; good sized nostrils and a large, clear eye. A point that must go with constitution If the best results are to be obtained Is prepotency. Prepotency means the ability of a sire to reproduce bis good points In his offspring. It Is Indicated by a heavy crest and a masculine look ing head. A bull that has a fine, fem inine appearing bead will not be at all certain of producing good calves, even theitgh he Is a good Individual hlra- are Imi'ly buklii:? I: any p.irtlinlur Im sure to hoIih-I ii main that Is -h- dally slrons there. On the oiln-r hand, n slight wenknen on tin part of the sire In a place where the fe males are eKHclally strong may Ih overlooked. An animal that has any very serious faults, however, should not be considered for a moment. lulry bulls lack the Hcxtilng and compactness that characterise Ixi-r animals. Low aetness aud extra width of back are not so essential. Constitution, as shown by a deep chest wide on tbe bottom and a roomy barrel. Is Important. A clean head, smooth shoulder, fine limbs and pliable skin show the quality that Is so necessary In a dairy animal. The most ImiMirtatit point la prejiotenry A strong chest, masculine head ami large rudimentary teats are all bull catloua of this. The best wsy to fore cast a dairy bulla prepotency, how ever. Is to look up tbe milk and butter producing records of bis dam aud grnnddams. A bull out of a high pro ducing row will almost certainly lie get heifers that will be high ylelders. Tbe most important points to look for in draft horses, which are the most profitable kind to raise on Ihe farm, are power and endurance. Pow er is ludieatca ly size, compactness and heavy muscling, especially In the bind quarters. Gndurauce Is shown by a strong constitution and fine qual ity, especially of limbs. strict observance of tliene points In the selection of a sire of any kind will give you an animal that will In a few years brim: nliout a great Improve ment in your herd. Pedigree should not be neglected entirely In picking, out a sire. Its chief value is In show ing that the animal is pure bred and that his ancestors were of the type which you wish to develop In your herd. To determine the latter point, however, requires a longer study of herd books than most farmers have time for. If you put the chief stress upon the individuality of tbe animal and file the pedigree away in a drawer where It can be referred to when nee essnry you will not go far wrong.

A hundred nnu fifty dollars may look like a big price to pay for n bull, but an Increase of $2 head In the value of the calf crop will pay for him in two or three years. In many cases you may be able to join with two or three of your near est neighbors in the purchase of a bull, thus not only saving money, but also obtaining a better animal than you would be able to secure otherwise. This applies with still more force to the purchase of a stallion. In many communities It is impossible to secure the services of a first class horse of any breed. In such a case if fifteen or twenty farmers will agree upon a breed and subscribe $100 each a horse can be procured that will almost pay for himself In the Increased value of bis flrst crop of colts.
