found satisfactory in all respects. This
consists Of an inclosure with stable
and breeding pen as shown in the ac.
cOmpanying illustration. The bull run
is so feet square, including the stable,
and is inclosed by solid board fence
G13 feet high. The boards are nailed
onto by As from the inside, which
insures great stability. The breeding
pen is also made solid by using one.
inch boards and is G12 feet high. The
COW is bred in this pen by tying her to
the front end and then letting in the
bull by opening the stable door. The
latter closes the pen when opened as
shown in the cut. The bul! is fed
through an opening in the stable.
Water is supplied in the same way.
A board walk, about one foot wide
and 21a feet high, is placed along the
outside of the breeding pen. The at.
tendant stands on this walk and drives
the bull back into the stable after the
COW has been served. For convenience
of taking the bull out of the inclosure,
a door Is put into the front of the
right-hand end of the breeding pen.
While a bull can be managed in
pen such as is here described without
coming In contact with him, it is best
to lead him out occasionally with a
stick snapped into the ring Of his
nose. 1t is always well to keep a bull
accustomed to being led with a stick.

Wonders Why They Lauahed.

There has been much criticism over
the system of handling the crowds at
the state fair, especially in the grand.
stand says the Milwaukee Evening
Wisconsin. The youngsters who did
the ushering were all well-meaning
lads, all farmers, and hardly capable
of handling crowds such as swarm
into the stand in the last few minutes
before the opening of the races or the
night shows.
A party of young people came in
rather late. They tried in vain TO find
seat. One of the young men turned
to Qn usher anl asked him If there
wcro no seats around that vicinity.
Don't see any" he replied.
Il suppose you are the goat said
one of the young ladies sympathetical-

man was in
He did not understand the SYM
pathy. His face flushed and he re-
piled angrily:

He is probably wondering why they
all laughed.

Gated that they did not wish to buy or make a
bargain. The thickness Of the nose above the
wings is the true facial sign of acuuistiveness
and a travelling salesman and a good business
man have generally this characteristic strongly
developed. We find it large in George Peabody

The lips of good salesman are regular and

The chin and jaw of successful salesman are
indicated by their squareness and roundness com.

The voice of a successful salesman is bright

a silvery toned voice which is SO oiled to its sub

out by the results of recent Investigations.

MANAGEMENT OF DAIRY BULL
Practise Of Allowing Animal to Run
With Herd Has Serious Draw
blackstone Method.

On the majority of farms 1t Is Gus.
tomary to allow the bull to run with
the herd. This practise is open to
serious objections. In the first place,
bull running with the herd is un-
safe from the standpoint of human
life. No bull is absolutely safe, be
he ever so gentle. In fact, it is the
gentle" bull that usually kills, be-
cause fewer precautions are taken
with animals of this kind than with
those that show an ugly disposition,
writes John Michels, in Homestead
Then there is the annoyance and
worry, especially for children and
women, to have a bull run about
Hired men also complain about get
ting up the COWS when there is bull
with them and who knows how many
have quit their job because of the
bull.
A very vital objection to running
the bull with the cows is that II i'm.
pairs the usefulness of the bull, due
to excessive service. One service is
sufficient and this can be bad only
when the bull is kept away from the
cows. Again, 1t is difficult to tell
when cows have conceived, which
makes 1t impossible to know when the
COWS are due to calve, matter Of no
small Importance.
A further serious objection to run.
ming bull with the herd is that many
valuable bull is disposed OF to the
butcher because he has become un.
manageable with the herd Most bulls
are sold to the butcher before they
have had a chance to demonstrate
their value.
The question now, arises, If the bull
is not to run with the herd, how is
he to be managed? There are sew.
eral ways of doing this, but | wish to
give here only one of them, one which
have used for a number of years and

same-the public got the worst of it.
Various cities have made efforts to devise
some means Of testing taxmeters, but to Uncle
Sam belongs the credit of first solving the prob
lem. The system is now in successful operation
at the capital of the nation where, by the way,
there are probably more taXicabs in operation
than in any other city Of the size in the world
The matter of keeping tab OH the taxineters was
placed in the hands of Col w. c. Haskell, the
United States superintendent of weights and
measures, and he invented the first machine spe-
cially designed for testing the accuracy of the
taxi"
The first apparatus was rather cumbersome
and the most conspicuous feature was a large
wooden wheel which was turned by hand The
principle of operation involved the insertion of
small wire through the shaft of the meter to be
tested and turning the same certain number Of
times to cover distance, verifying this test

machine when fitted with the same size eccentric,

cabs gave a correct test but it time-con-
suming process, ten revolutions of the large wheel
being required to show one-quarter mile of travel
After much study of the subject Colonel Has
kell perfected the small machine which has lately
been introduced for this work. With it one
luton of the crank whee-through the aid of
system Of cogwheels-represents a quarter Of
mile of travel With this small machine attached
direct to the shaft of the meter to be tested
1t is possible to test ten meters in the time for
merly required for trying out one Moreover, the
system Of cogwheels is adjusted to give an
absolutely accurate test The government now
requires that all taximeters attached to cabs at
the seat of government be tested at least twice
year, and when a meter upon test is found to be

Think twice before selling the good
COW and then don't sell her.
Care must be taken not to get the
cream too sour for churning.
Remember the COW likes regular
meal hours as well as you do.
See that the dairy COW at all times
has access to clear, fresh water.
The best thing with which to clean
a separator is a small, stiff brush.
II the cow is to produce pure milk
she must have pure food and water.
One cannot properly clean milk
pals without the use of boiling water
The hand separator has been a step
to greater dairy profits on many a
farm.
The real butter-maker of our coun-
try is the farm cow whose milk never
goes to the creamery.
AS the calf Is so Is the COW. Poor
care in calfhood means a poor COW
when she comes. to maturity
It's mistake to imagine that the
good COW is going to be profitable
with haphazard, Indifferent care.
The Iowa state dairy law forbids
selling milk from cows within two
weeks of calving and five days after.
Many mixers object to brushing a
cows sides and washing the udder be-
cause 1t requires ten minutes time.
Such men have no business handling
cows.
Clean cows not only have the name
of making good butter, they have the
game as well; but you have got to be
as neat as they are about every sim
