Now Is tho right tlmo to trade
grades for pure bred cattle, slnco val
ues of puro breeds aro reduced more
than tho value of grades. As quickly
ns catt'o prices advance it will roqulro
more grades to buy ono puro bred. On
the other hand this Is the time for tho
breedor of puro bred cattle, to In
crease hls'herd uf young cattle. Also
It Is a good tlmo for him to boost the
