Prince Jonquil 85334 
is a worthy son of ono of America’s foremost dairy 
cows, tlis dam, Spermfield (hoi's Eva 193034, a 
Meridale Jersey, In a year’s work ending February 
28, 19i4. produced 16.457 lbs. milk. 1.168 lbs. butter, 
with an average fat test of 6.03556 The world's 
record is 1,175 ibs. Two previous yearly records 
attest her consistency in dairy work, while a 
daughter and practically a full sister in the 
Register of Merit further evidence that dairy 
quality runs in the blood. 
His sire, Interested Prince 58224 (Imported), has 25 
daughters in the Register of Merit, with yields 
as high as 13.833 lbs. milk, 819 lbs. butter on yearly 
test. Thirteen daughters of Interested Prince and 
Sfteen daughters of Spermfield Owl inthe Meridale 
herd are demonstrating to us every day the re¬ 
markable productive quality of the blood lines 
carried by Prince Jonquil.

THE RURAL NEW-YORKER, 333 W. 30th St., New York 
mains that all the dairy cows of the coun¬ 
try will not average six pounds. 
You men who claim that there is noth¬ 
ing to the pure blood but the way she is 
handled just go ahead with your best 
grade and test her out. If you kill her, 
it will not be so had as if you had 
bought a $500 pure blood and killed her, 
and if she makes 20 or 30 pounds of but¬ 
ter a week, the joke will be on me. 
Why test at all? For no other reason 
than to prove that we have the goods. 
Jones goes away and comes home with 
a new horse. He sits on a nail keg clown 
at the store and proclaims to all that he 
has the fastest horse in town—but he 
never lets him out when someone in a 
hurry pulls out to drive past him. Smith 
gets a new nag and keeps his mouth shut 
about him, but when Brown, who has 
always had the best horse in the neigh¬ 
borhood, pulls on him some day, Smith 
braces his feet, and getting a good hold 
on the reins, just chirrups a little and 
leaves Brown in a cloud of dust. Then 
we all know that Smith has the goods. 
J. GRANT MORSE. 
THE STATE AND “PUREBREDS.” 
The State of Kansas issues licenses to 
owners of purebred stallions. The pro¬ 
cess of examining pedigrees seems to have 
shaken out a few familiar ghosts of the 
live stock business. 
Occasionally a worthless pedigree is 
discovered. One man tried to account 
for six generations in 11 years. A case 
was found where the sire claimed by the 
pedigree was not imported until a year 
after the colt was born. Records are on 
file in this office of all stallions ever im¬ 
ported into America, and it is possible to 
check any pedigree received. 
This claim of offspring born after the 
parent died is familiar to us. We had 
it in that famous old cattle case of a 
few years ago. We have had several 
cases since where breeders were mighty 
careless about their records—to be as 
charitable about it as possible. We think 
it a good thing for the State to take up 
this matter of stallion pedigrees. A 
good stallion costs a small fortune. 
There is much money involved in breed¬ 
ing to produce a high-class animal and a 
farmer should have every possible pro¬ 
tection when he pays a good price in the 
hope of obtaining a high-class colt. If 
there is anything in pedigree at all the 
farmer has a right to have it straight. 
There are some things about this mat¬ 
ter of “State control” which are a mile 
ahead of the times. One man wants a 
law compelling all farmers to raise two 
beef calves every year. Another would 
make it a penalty for dairymen to keep 
any bull whose dam had a record of less 
than 250 pounds of butter per year! We 
hear intelligent and influential men ad¬ 
vocating a law to make it a severe pen¬ 
alty for anyone to permit any rooster 
to run at large except during the breed¬ 
ing season for poultry. The object of 
this is to compel the production of infer¬ 
tile eggs. Many of such things are prop¬ 
erly put under the head of “fool legisla¬ 
tion.” or a clear interference with the 
rights of a man to conduct his business 
in his own way. In this use of “pure 
blood” a farmer should have some pro¬ 
tection from the State. 
Why I Breed Black and White. 
Because they will produce more milk 
for the feed they consume than any other 
breed. 
They are persistent milkers, and will 
give milk within a few days of freshening. 
I can obtain three times as much for the 
bob calves as for the smaller breeds. I 
sell all my calves from my grade cows 
when three days old for $7.50 each. 
These calves bring two-thirds more when 
accident renders them useless as milk¬ 
ers. I spetik from experience, as I form¬ 
erly bred Jersey cows, grades and pure- 
breds. 
My 21 milch Holstein cows give more 
milk than my 35 Jerseys. It is all bosh 
about Holsteins going dry for such a 
great length of time. We have great 
difficulty in drying up some of my Hol¬ 
steins. Further, they are not so suscepti¬ 
ble to the prevailing diseases among the 
smaller breeds of cattle.

To promote general prosperity and their 
own business, bankers in many parts of the 
country are buying purebred Holsteins by 
the carload and selling them on time to the 
farmers of the community. 
Every year it becomes clearer that with 
large yield cows the cost of milk and butter 
production can be brought down to a point 
that makes - dairying profitable. 
A herd of purebred Holsteins is an in¬ 
vestment that combines safety with large 
dividends.
