ALFALFA JERSEYS.
FORTHCOMING SALE. AN ATTRACTIVE OFFERING. The most important factor in the necesary reduction these days in production costs is the use of stock of proven ability, and the' dispersal •sale of 120 Alfalfa pedigree Jerseys on May 2, presents an opportunity of securing slock of unrivalled average backing, at low values. Buyers will get the benefit of a wonderful breeding plan, combining Waipiko .Masterpiece, 5603; • The Champion of Champions butlerfat bulls, with Vive La France’s Last Ton Imp. the highest butterfat backed bull brought to New Zealand, and proven breeding cows.
Alfalfa Jerseys have established many notable records in the past, and many leading tested herds have been bred from Alfalfa bulls; the two lead-' ing C.O.R. heifers of last season are daughters of Alfalfa herd sires. The 120 head include 50 coming two-year-old heifers, 34 stud cows, and 36 bulls of unequalled average backing, and as prices ranged from sgns. for heifers, and : 4gns. for bulls at the 1932 Alfalfa sale, there should be some great buying at this sale, and those unable to attend would be well advised to forward a conservative buying order. The sale will be held on the farm,." Alfalfa," 24 miles from Hamilton, on Tuesday, May 2. Catalogues are procurable from the vendor, Mr. F. J. Saxby, with whom buying terms can be arranged,
