Speaking of the necessity for keeping a good bull to build up the dairy herd, Mr J. L. Bruce, Superintendent of State Farms, in conversation with a “Chronicle” representative made - a remark which, should set dairy-farm-ers thinking. “You could take the worst scrub herd in the country,” he said, “and if you buy a first-class-bull, use him for a couple of seasons, buy another then, and so on. I will guarantee that at the end of four generations you will have a herd that an expert could not tell from p,urebreds.”
