He developed his enterprise on his own, apparently, without government assistance. Oemings started as a wrestler, made some money, then turned promoter where the dollars came fast- er, and the effort was much easier on the physiqu

THE ALBERTA naturalist became interested in Albert be- cause of his wide experience in breeding and exhibiting Jersey

Many grese live 20 years and longer, but they’re about four years old before they reproduce. This slow development adds to the difficulty of breeding for improvement, and Mr. Boswell is constantly trying to improve the birds.
