PURE BRED STOCK INCREASE
The average increase in financial
returns traceable to the use of pure
bred sires was 4S per cent on 331
farms surveyed by the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture recently. The
profitable results are due largely to
the fact that a purebred sire grad
ually improves an entire herd or
flock.
Thirty-one farmers will exchange
their scrub dairy bulls for purebreds
this October in Nebraska. They will
begin reaping the 4S per cent extra
profits. The 31 purebreds have been
furnished by 31 of the dairy breeders
of the state. The Burlington' Rail-
