I have kept the best theroughbred Mull 1 could get with the means at My disposal, from that day to this, and I know there never has been a tine° when 16 other cows could have been pick.ed out of our herd that would have done as well and T never have known an instance where a person has picked up a very choice herd and been able to hold them up to their ,original standard by breeding.
