He still has three males for sale and a largc amount 0 r I oldcr s ws and guilts , which be is selling- very reasonablc. He I with others have found that it cost no more to raise good stock than it docs a scrub. Onc of his ncighbors whQ has been raising scrub steele for year bought of him two sows last fall. He succeeded - ceeded so wel1 that he disposed of al1 his old stock and.came back this. fall aud bought fifteen more head of brood sows. Ir. Cad wel1's herd of herefolds : are cxceptionally fine. His herd bull is exceptionally a fine , animal in every particular aq his get shows. FroQ1 his long - icnce Mr. Cadwell knows a exper-I animal when he sees it and being posted on the best families he is nabled to keep his herd in the front ranks.
