The Bull in the Field.

Among the men who make a practice
of handling pure bred cattle little or
no criticism can be offered concern
ing their management of the herd bull.
To the breeder the bull is d part of
his equipment and is treated as such.
On the farm of the average stock
raiser, however, the situation is differ
ent and the bull often becomes but an
incident in the matter of the produce
ton of the annual calf crop. 1t is on
such farms we often find the bull most
neglected
If the daily press noted all Of the
incidents that occur from the care
less management of the bull there
would not be day when numbers of
casualties would not be mentioned.
Further if a study were made of such
record 1t would be found that 1t is the
average farm bull keeper and not the
breeder of improved cattle that figures
in the vast majority of the serious
accidents with the bull. If we admit
this premise, it simply means that the
farm bull keeper is careless in his
management.
An observer who travels much about
the country will be impressed with the
number of bulls that are allowed TO
run at large in the pasture with the
other stock At best this custom can
not be put down as 81 wise practice.
No matter how we'll he may have been
reared, bull is a bull. In every one
of these beasts there is a lurking sus.-
pieion of his power. which apparently
needs only the incentive to break into
furious passion and opposition to un.'
natural restraint.
1t is a wise man who lodges the
pasture where the bull is at liberty.
And it is a wise man who never allows
a bull to run with his other stock In
the pasture. True, there are thous'-
ands of bulls that have never given
evidence of the least evil in their dis
position, but often it is the bull of this
character that is trusted and which az.
some unexpected moment turns on his
master with serious, If not fatal, re-
suits.
Every farmer who has bull should
have a strong paddock where he can
be exercised when not In the stall. NO
matter how domesticated he may al
WAYS appearsto be he should be treat
cd as unsafe Nothing unreasonable
should be required of the bull, but what
is expected should be required. his
keeper should be the master OF all oe-
casibns. Keep the bull out of the pas
ture, exercise him in paddock, treat
him conservatively at all times, ana
there will be few fearful casualties 10

PROPHETIC SENTIMENTS At THE FAIR

and there were $4,000 people there to

But more will come next year and
more the year after. Extraordinary
provision must be made for them. Two
elderly men were there from Chester
county, Pennsylvania, and they fairly
marveIed at.the agricultural wealth Of
the state Of Iowa. They complained
about the low price of their lands be-
cause of the competition Iowa land had
forced upon them. but one of these men
carried as much as s11,0O0 fire insur-
ance on the buildings located on us

e The man sitting across the table
from the Pennsylvania men was not
much past so years old, but he had
come to Chicago when there was only
one railroad running into it. He had
come west to Iowa ahead of the rail-
road and had owned land here for
thirty years The crowds of people at

lneighboring herds.
1t is advisable, then. to place hog
cholera under state and federal con-
troll and use police sanitary measures
In the control of this disease
AT the beginning of hog cholera
outbreak, it is best to move the herd
into new yards. The yards should be
large enough to prevent crowding, as
In crowded quarters the opportunity
for infection is greater and additional
care is required in order to keep the
surroundings In a sanitary condition.
Sufficient shelter is necessary, for
exposure to the hot rays of the sun,
storms. chilling Winds ETC., tend to
lower the vitality of the sick animals
The very sick hogs should be re-
moved from the herd and given separ-
ate yards, or destroyed. However, the
necessity of using this latter precau-
ton depends on the number of hogs
that are sick and may not be practical
when large per cent of the herd be-
comes diseased.
The tar disinfectantS should be used
daily about the feed troughs. floors,
sleeping quarters, etc. (By tar disin-
fectants" DR.. Craig means the CONNER
cial dips and disnfectants advertised
in these columns from time to time)
No less than 2 per cent water solu-
ton of the disinfectant should be used
and every week. if the weather per-
mits. the hogs should be dipped or
sprayed with / per cent solution
The hogs should not be fed on the
ground, or allowed to drink surface
water A sloppy diet of shorts, bran.
and corn or oat meal is best for the
sick and exposed animals.
The water and ,slop must not be left
in the troughs for the hogs to wallow
in, and in order to lessen the opportu-
nifty for infection thru the food, pow-
dered copper sulphate may be dis
solved in the slop and drinking water
in the proportion Of one ounce of the
copper sulphate to every ten gallons
OF water and slop.
The dead hogs should be burned.
This is not a difficult task, If the bod
les are placed on top of pile of wood
that burns quickly and makes a hot
fire. If disposed of by burying, IL
should be well done and the bodies
covered with lime.
AT the end of the outbreak. the lots.
houses, etc, should be cleaned and dis
infected. All the litter should be burn
ed and the yards, wherever possible,
piowed.
If the herd has been moved from old
to new quarters, it Is of course un-
necessary to wait until the end of the
outbreak before giving the old quarters
thorough cleaning and disinfecting.

Starch from "stock Potatoes

StaFcn from STOCK Fotatoe0."
Now that the denaturis,ed alcohol
measure has become law and as the
department of agriculture desires the
farmers to take full advantage Of the
possibilities which the law holds out to
them, that department is ,endeavoriug
to introduce crops which will yield the
greatest amount of alcohol to a planted
acre. 1t had delegated Mr.. NJ E. Han
sen, of North Dakota, to make trip
to Europe in order to bring back with
him a quantity of seed potatoes of the
variety known as stock potatoes"
This peculiar type of potatoes Is
largely used for stock feeding. 1t is
larger and coarser than the potato that
is served on the table but about twice
as much weight of plant can be raised
to the acre than the table variety 1t
is not only valuable for stock feeulns
but being Of course starchy, will be a
great producer of alcohol and with de-
naturized alcohol on the free list there
will be an enormous demand for al
cohol producing farm crops.
Mr.. Hansen will also seek. hardy va
rieties of northern fruits for planting
in our northwest This is not Mr. Han
sens first trip to Europe in order to
gather in new crops for the depart
nlent of agriculture, as a number of
years ago he went to Russia at the
expense of the department and brought
back with him the hardy Russian cher
ry which has been adapted for growth
in northern Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin.
fOn this trip he will take in Stock
holm, whence he will proceed north to
the northern apex of Scandinavia.
There are number of northern fruits
in this region that he will probably be
able to secure and some of these are
believed likely to prove of value to the
northwest He will then go over to 81.
Petersburg and the northern part OF
Russia, where there are some things II,
the way of northern farm products
that might be of use in Alaska with its
short hot summer
Later Hansen will visit the south of
Russia and finally take IN Turkistan,
where he originally discovered Turk
istan alfalfa. This plant has proved
of large value to the United States,
but it seems that it is hardly possible
to obtain enough seed for Introduction
on a commercial scale, and it is hoped
that Mr.. Hansen will be able to find
large quantities of seed in those locali-
ties.
In addition to- these things delegated
to him by Secretary Wilson, Mr.. Han
sen will also endeavor to bring back
with him a number of the disease re-
sistant type of potatoes which are be-
lieyed to exist in a number of potato
producing countries of Europe.
