PRACTICAL PROBLEMS 



L. H. Kerrick, of Bloomington, Illinois, a very successful 

 breeder of the Aberdeen- Angus. These records are kept on 

 cardboard 5^ x 8| inches, and containing no printing whatever. 

 They are kept on edge in alphabetical order in a special box, and 

 it is but a moment's work to note the present condition of any 

 female in the herd ; moreover, every time the owner consults a 

 card he is afforded at a glance and involuntarily a picture of 

 the complete breeding record of the cow for her entire lifetime. 

 Two records are presented, one of Fair Lady of Verulam and 

 the other of her first offspring, Fancy Fair.
