Brash, the secretary, told the ward conference, at Whangarei today that the board was disappointed at the paucity of applications for sire surveys from. individual farmers. In other countries the work had been taken up wholeheartedly. There seemed to be no movement, in the Dominion to improve the position of the herds. He stated that the C.O.R. tests were practically useless from the viewpoint of improving production generally. It had to be admitted that the industry was most likely to secure help from purebred sires, but only if breeders put their backs into the job and, gave the industry the cattle to improve the herds.
