When 1 1 used the tuberculin test
in my herd ten, years ago and killed
seven animals, completely banishing
the disease, I was met with ridicule
from my brother farmers.. An an
nual test for eight years has failed
to find a single reaction. Although
this policy has been worth thousands
of dollars to me in the sale of regis
tered cattle, very many of them can
not see it.W. .D, Hoard.

cessive development' in dewlap and
brisket and a lack of fullness and
smoothness In thighs and rump. The
rump, too often, is uneven and lacks
fullness, while the thighs are not only
thin but lack .depth. Both these
defects have been largely improved
by the breeding of recent years, but
they probably still constitute : the
chief Hereford defects in form.
The neck Is generally very smooth
j and beautifully blended with the
shoulder, which is usually well cov
