There latiou of feeding to breeding is iu timate, and tbe two processes abould be co-operative. If ration al feeding were given tbe attentioi aich fashionable breeding re ceives, the constitution, fecundity aud general welfare of tbe herd and fl cks would be materially improved. iCONYICT " BBLLAIRS.
