An unexpected birthday present r'e-

its birthday, April 24tH, was a new

of using the fine piece iii;wooded land
in which it: stands.;,, This is but one
testimony of the "appreciation 'local
people have for this fine Troop. On
Good Friday this troop planted 2,700
trees which it received from the On-

If, however, this criticism were direct=,

justification. Canadian newspapers
are not large users of newsprint; the

Experiences With Scrub Sires.
The :Most convincing argument In.
.favor`of the purebred sire instead of
the grade and scrub are the actual're-
Ports ,which have been obtained from
the use iefrboth- tat es.
The foliowing are actual experiences
of fanners ^on'e't,be.i- own •farmst
A : farmer in Dufferin County, On-
tario, had a calf dropped March 18th,
1919, which he sold -on December 12th
of tiie same year at 23ee cents per
pound. This baby beet brought
$169.21. This calf was out of " a good
grade cow which was., herself sired by
a purebred bull. The calf was also
sired by"an approved type of purebred
sire.- In the same stable on similar
feeding and treatment at tate same time
Was a calf also out of a 'fairly good
grade cow but sired by a grade bull.
This calf was dropped Nov. 5th, 1918,
and was sold on the satee day as the
calf already referred to. (Dec. 12, 1919).
He brought 19 cents per poundeor 4,
cents, less per pound than his stable
mate by the purebred bull and he
brought_$174.80. He was 4e4 months
-older, • had taken mote feed and care,
but did not have as good quality and
so was not as profitable" as his better
bred stable mate. ' These calves were
exceptionally Well fed, but breeding
counted to the extent of 41/y cents per
-pound and' enabled the feeder to. mar-
ket his best Calf at. very' close to as
mi'ch honey in 41/2months shorter
tithe. This is a case where the "feed-
ing was right in both cases and where
the purebred bull was directly respons-
ib]e for the difference. •
The -experience .of a London Town-
ship tamer, Middlesex County, ,with
purebred and scrub bulls shows very
closely the place of the scrub sire. Six
:years ago. -he had in his herd eight very
even purebred cows that gave him
ei'glit bull calves from purebred .sire.
These were made steers and ¥ept:nntil
two and one-half years old, finished
on grass and when sold averaged $140
each. The next year the farmer was
ailing and was unable to take his cows
a di, tante to a purebred sire. A
neighbor offered hint the use of his
scrub sire. The progeny from mating
from -e'hich five steers were kept, fed
and marketed under the same condi-
tions brought $l.1.4', ach, although
there had . beeu a Alight rise in price
during the year. 'Alis farmer stated
'that on the five steers he lost $130, in
one year, and to the average farmer
using a scrub sire on ten females the
loss would be $260, from' a beef stand-
point alone. If the daughters of the
scrub bull were kept in the herd this
loss would show in their"calves In les°-
er degree. This man `claims that`
soon as farmers keep an accurate pro-
fit and 1055 account the scrub bull will
disappear.
