Besides these wehave right here on our farms without any freight expense the cotton^seedhulls and meal which make such excellent feed for cattle.

If cattle inNorway fed on cotton seed hulls and meal shipped from our country canbe sold at a profit in the markets of England, is it not to be supposed thatour farmers can raise cattle and sell them at a profit in our own markets ? The most profitable course for the general farmer to pursue in im-proving the quality of his live stock is to buy first>class thoroughbredmales. The calves of a mixed average lot of cows, sired by a thorough-bred bull of any of the best breeds, will partake much of the nature ofthe sire, and the females of this grade again bred to a thoroughbred will.
