LIVESTOCK BREEDING PROGRAM LAUNCHED BY ONTAPvIO Artificial Insemination Ainionp- Plans Improved Pasturase awi Production Costs Reduction Soug^jt by Kennedy Determined to make Ontario one of the finest livestock breec'lng arei.s in the worlii the Provincial Department of A'briculture has launched program® to improve cow pasturass, reduce production costs of hogs sn^d extend artificial mS'-mination plans.

By raising the qual'ty and the number of calves it is evpeci;ed to in- crease milk producticlh pai- cow far above the present figTire. Ccl. Kennedy said in estimating' that with evei-y 1,000-pound inicreaee in milk production o' cows an additicna" re- venue of '25 miilion'.y wns obtained. Col. Kennedv said the proiTara of I artificial insemination will be staite-'- 1 in Leeds County where inrm or- ganizations have offered to pay hal£ the cost . Eventually Uie province will set up schools whers the techniqce ol treating cows can be taugnx. He pointed out that in Wisconsin artificial insemination has__had re- â- uarkably good results.
