The Bulletin. 33 



I have said before, llie (lescendant of a long line of this same type of aniiiial. 

 About three-fourths of the value of a meat-producing carcass (as priced on our 

 best markets) is in the meat produced on the back and in the hindquarter ; so 

 you can readily see how iinjxutaut it is that the sire should be very strong in 

 these two itoints. 



I have time to touch only on the marketing of our stock. Some will find it 

 profitable 1o produce feeders for others located in more favorable sections for grain 

 production. Otiu'rs with a large proportion of arable land will be able to finish 

 their animals for Ihe heller markets, in wliicli case the animals must be produced 

 in car-load lots and then sent where they will bring their value. Early lambs and 

 liogs can usually be disposed of in our own near-by cities and towns by having 

 them ready to sell at the time the people want that class of meat. Each man 

 nuist study his market; and remember this, that a first-class product can always 

 be sold somewhere at a profit.
