The making of pedigrees and attach
ing them to animals not entitled to
them is worse than ordinary forgery,
and yet. some animals have pedigrees
of this fraudulent sort. The animals
do not thrive according to legitimate
expectation and treatment, and the
like Is true of the off-spring. We are
not always apt to be too careful about
the pedigrees we buy.
In dealing with the problem of ma
nuring, it is to be remembered that
for many crops economical production
requires that the natural manure*
should be supplemented by artlfical
supplies, by means of which the form
and amount of the Individual consti
tuent can be regulated to meet the
needs of tho various plants. <
