Briefly, Mr. llmmnel's sev- en reasons are the maintumwce of soil fertility, the utilization oi‘ ruw mutmn rial, the need of motive power on the farm. cash iumme. the ndded unmeâ€" tiveness of a farm on which there is live stock. the training in business sense obtuilwd by keeping animals, and better and more economical liv- lnl (or [he funn family. under. hon-evur. there is no direct rev- enue from them.
