WEED OUT THE SCRUB COW.
A LESSON OF HERD-TESTING. Herd-testing is becoming more and more appreciated by the intelligent dairyman, but there are still a good many farmers who have yet to recognise that there is prosperity ahead of the man who rids his herd of the scrub cows and replaces them with a good dairy breed. Practice has shown that there is hope for the man who keeps his common stock, and trys to make the most of them by adopting newer and better dairy methods, but that for the farmer who obstinately sticks to his scrub cows and scrubber ways, there is only one end—and what that end is is obvious. Some farmers hold that it is only the rich man who can afford to run a dairy by modern scientific methods, but in truth the rich .are the only ones who could, if they wanted to, afford to run it any other way.
