"The International Live Stock Ex

of animal breeding in this country.
Here are annually exhibited the
best products of the mind and geni
us of th-2 American breeder , con
cepts which have been developing
during 20 , and in some oases even
30 or10 years.Yhat a privilege
it is to come in contact with these
men ; what an inspiration to study
the results of their consistent and
united effort. It is no wonder that
students of the agricultural colleges
far and near , with their instructors
flock to Chicago during the live
st.ock exposition. Where else could
they hope to find a school exam -
plifying as this does all the princi
ples of animal breeding and nutrit
ion. Yes , the International Live
Stock Exposition is indeed a great
school. Think of what it means to
the hundreds of thousands of farm
ers who annually visit it and see

what their brother farmers and
