1 Upon the cow depends success or
failure and we must, after selecting
her, look to her care and her feed,
and to the' handling of her pro-

The fact that dairymen have de-
voted more attention to other phas-
es of their ''dairying than
to the breeding and develop-
ment of the cow is one of
the reasons why so many of our
dairy herds are not capable of re-

It is a. fact that most people
who have passed the age of child-
ish sport stand in need of some
form of definite exercise in order to
keep their muscles from settling
down into the sluggish inactivity of
middle age, which brings so many
physical' drawbacks in its train.
Normal children exercise without
being told to do so, because it is
their nature to play, and play is the

ally if it takes place outdoors. But
