On the other hand the dairy breed* have had bred Info them a tendency to turn their food In milk. floth types have got far away from the original types of wild cattle. The two type* have got still further away from each other. f J» *1 he man who select* for dairy use a pinmp cow. typical of the beef breeds, and expect* to get gnia] re* • urn* from her In the dairy must be disappointed. There are good dairy cow* occasionally among the beef breeds, but they are not plump ones, they do not conform to the beef type One who had mm typical beef rattle all hln life, on firat aeetng a typical dairy cow would »»r »he wa» bony, poor. out of condition Hut the ten doncy that ha* boon bred Into her ■o manufacture a large part of her f«w»d Into milk, and not into fle*h.

'I he average farmer will not be much Interested In having cows of the strictly dairy type. Possibly he wants only a little milk for home use and Is considerably Interested In hav ing calves that will make blocky steers with thick layers of meat. D*. fore buying rattle or breeding hit rows, one should consider what his main object In keeping cows Is; then he should buy or breed so as to gain that object. Each type of cat tle is fitted by nature best for some particular use. though It may, In part, be man-mnde nature; and the easiest way to get profit from cattle Is to start with stock adapted to the object one aim* at. Ji The kind of farming that many men prefer to do call* for the strict ly beef breed*, while others should use the so-called dual-purpose breed*, or the breed* that combine fairly well the double purpose of beef and of milk production.
