IMPORTANT STOOIC SALE. It is an acknowledged fact that it pavs a farmer to keep only first-class quality cattle, the same work, attention, and feed being required for poor stock as for good; therefore, if a certain class of cow will yield a very high percentage of cream and at the same time give a large supply of milk, it naturallv follows that the income derived from a herd of such cows must be very much greater than if the herd was composed of cows that do not give a high cream t'ot. Au absolutely firstelas's herd has been built up by Mr. Thomas Linn, of Mangatoki, and the whole lot (pedigree and grade Jerseys) will be sold absolutely without reserve hv Mr. Newton King on Thursday, the ]»lli instant, as per advertisement appearing in another column.
