Selection of good heifer calves to replace old or inferior cows. Seventh. Prevention of disease among the breeding heard and the younger stock. Eighth. Shelter sufficient to protect the cattle from both severe cold and extremely hot weather. Ninth. A practical knowledge of fattening cattle for market. Tenth Marketing to advantage."--Page [2].
