In outlining a plan to fellow in dairy- ing, first we must decide what breed we wish to feature, then fay out a system and live woo the idea of mak- ing a succese of our work.

A man can oversee • great litany things,givicg orders and making plane, if be hos none of toe work to do, but it is Netter not to get too many irons In the fire if we wish to be successful. There are several different types of dairy farming -dairying and mined farming, specializing in purebred stock ; selling milk or cream to the nearby town or city ; sending milk to cheese or butter tactory,etc. Suppose the young man starting has 62.000 to invest. The location. sue of farm and amount of plant food in land must be considered. If one Intends tq go in for growing and selling grain I would advise renting • farm, but buy a farm for dairying where all feed is fed on farm, thus increasing its value. An 80 -acre farm for dairying and mixed farming could be secured for $4,000 with fair buildings. One might pay 1800 down and take out • mort- gage for the balance. 'Then I would use $1,2110 for equipping the farm, divided as follows: Live stock, $866: for ma- chinery and implements, $140 ; for bulldiog silo and seed the first year, 8106. In buying machinery the best plan is to secure it at auction sales, as it can he purrhased at a reasonable price, thus cutting down expenses. Thr man who wishes to specialize In purebred stock is wiser to start oo good healthy grades and have a share in a stock bull from ancestors with good records. Give him one pure- bred cow to start with, and if he wishes show type, let him get it. He will be a poor man all the rest of his days if be follows that type. 1f it is production he is aftet, do not buy • at • disadvantage to farm life. It lack of ezperieoce, lack of busine= ability, lack of system and not reckon- ing the real profits. For instance, the Doer daya man invited e to have a treat. m nother friend came aloe and we each spent 28 eta. That 750 went into the other man: pocket, for which we had no value. Some will criticize me for recom- mending cheap farm equipment. The farmer oo the small farm today ls up against it paying notes on farm imple- ments. How much real profit does the cost of a binder lick up ? You may veil 10 bogs at seven cents a pound, weigbiog 200 Ibe, each, which will amount to $140. It meta you five cents • pound to teed them, leaving you • profit of $4 eacb. If • binder coots you $PY0 that will amount to the profit from Sevigs. The suggestions that 1 have gives herewith are all gleaned from our own practical experience, gained ohne Mn. Laithwaite and 1 made our own humble start One of our chief efforts has been made toward the develop- meat evelopmeat of • producing bead of purebred Jersey cattle. I would like to give something of the work done by our Goderich Jersey herd -of 11 bead. Last year the total production of the herd was 05,062 lbs. of milk, from which we made 4.463 lbs. of butter, bringing us $1,100.68. The feed Dost us $1506. This leaves us • profit over and above feed of $666.58. In addition to this we had 00,58111bs. of skim milk, which le worth at least 30 eta. • cwt., compared with the prices on other foodstuffs nowa- days. This is the kind of a herd to which one may work, but which would be expensive to .fart in with at the first. pies the tune of three ham aki eeriest. bowe►sr bio beee dSs West - reel .dtst•letntl .
