The effect of using those good bulls for breeding grade cattle is going to show itself in due course of time in a better grade of milk cattle, Mr. Stribling is convinced. This same increased interest in both hogs and poultry is being manifested, according to the agent. This fact is proven by the number of purebred placed by local business men with club boys last season, and bv the number of farmers who bought purebred gilts and boars in 1927.

Already inquiries are being made about securing the pigs from these purebreds thus spring by other farmers who desire good breeding stock. Farmers in all sections of the county during the past few months have been disposing of their mongrel chickens and replacing them with breeding stock of a high grade.
