Good Bull Value For Community Farm Improvement
A vocational agriculture note extols a good bull's value to a community, citing USDA experiments showing a potential 91 pound annual butter gain from offspring of a registered bull. Felton Ford, a local student, purchased a Beane Dairy sire near Eva to boost herd quality and soil and poultry efforts. He plans for crimson clover seed and basic slag aid, and reports broiler profits of about $12 per 100 birds from 1700 raised last year. The notice offers the bull for $100 or exchange for dairy cows, with contact details in Falkville and Moulton.
