SESSIONAL PAPER No. 16 



One filing stands out very plainly from the above table; that the biggost profit- 

 making cows are in general the largest producers, which consume the most feed at 

 the highest cost. There are, of course, exceptions, but here again is shown the fact 

 that good cows, well fed, are the only ones which pa.v. This is so often repeated that 

 it seems useless to mention the matter here, but it is wonderful that so few farmers 

 will, in this caje, put into i^ractice what is acknowledged by all to be the best pi'o- 

 cedure to follow. Culling and feeding, more than breeding, is the shortest road to 

 success. Why it seems to a large number the hardest to follow is beyond ccmpre- 

 liensiou.
