We visited a dairyman the other (buy who
waS renovaing his herd of cows. He want-
ed to improve the general status of his dairy
and Elo it expeclitiouely, stud this was his
method 1 He was tawnier; the inferior
animals in the herd, and 510 Man 11.0 One
beeve wee disposed of the money Hutt it
brought, with more added to it if necessary,
was expended foe the purchase of a first elass
(stitch 00W. By this method he is re ,sonably
sure that next yea' his dairy will do et least
third better than it has done the past
00E18011. This num on the start did not have
an uncommonly poor dairy by any men as,
but had fair grade of common milch stook.
He will piele out the rough diamonds from
other common herds about him and soon
possess a dairy actual to any grade herds.
The gentleman must needs go farther, how-
ever, if he makes a what ending out of a good
beginning.
He should by all means put ts. registered
bell at the head of the1 herd next speing.
The choice cows he is selecting will do al-
right for a few years, but for their quality
to be perpetunted, and if possible be int prow -
ed upon, a sire of straight pedigree is stria•
ly necessary. To improve upon mileh
stock you meet have good cows and a good
sire too. This would seem to be plain
enough for any dairyman to comprehend,
but yet the country is thickly, populated
With fanners who, if they do understaud this
fact, utterly ignore it in practice. , A
ecrewny scrub, Et two or three yess old bull,
and often & yearling, is to be seen run-
ning with herds of noble cows on
farm after farm through this section
(New 'York State). Less frequent
ly, but occasionally, grade or full.
blooded bulls are noticed -presidiug over
eonlmon dairies. Both systems prevalent
are in the ultimate result wrong, although
some good may bo derived irons the latter.
Either the etre or the dam, or both, must
contribute (nullity to make the offspring of
a good 11111011 strain. The governing charac-
teristics of the offspring arc 08 likely to be
inherited from the ffium ass from the sire, and
vice versa. It thuS appears DS a plant fact
thee you canna breed into good miloh stock
intelligently and surely without good blood
on both sides. A blooded bull alone isn't
going to be the salvation of your dairy by
any means, although he is fox preferable to
ail inferior sire. On the other hand good
cows, while they will last a fow years, are
not sure by tho use of inferior sires to trans
emit their milch testae to bovine posterity.
If any of oar dairy roasters are teeing
their herds this fall by the purchase of choice
CONys oUr firm belief is that they have only
gone half way towat•d permanent improve-
ment, It is an excellent time now to in -
ungulate a system of permanent improve-
ment in your dairy ; and as such improve-
ment means more to you for labor involved,
you will never rogretthe wise stop, (Cleo. E.

In the Isle of Man, as in Scotland, much
