CARE NEEDED IN
FEEDING ENSILAGE,

A great many silos are being built
this summer. and the owners will bave
their first experience feeding silage
next winter There Is no denying the
fact that silage has high feeding
value, but those who are inexperienced
should use caution in feeding II they
would get best results.
When the feeding of silage is begun
1t must be given in small quantities
or the cows and calves will scour and
get off feed If the feeding is begun
while there is pasturage and pumpkins
or other green feeds are In use the
danger of scours will not be so great.
and almost full ration may be given
at the start
Spoiled sllage is something that must
never be fed When feeding begins, as
soon as the silo is filed. there will be
none spoiled, but where several weeks
intervene before feeding begins there
will be considerable portion on top
thai must be thrown away. Spoiled
silage makes very good mulch for
use in the garden.

depends to great extent upon the
cow as some animals require more

HANDLING A VICIOUS BULL.
Use of Double Loop Helps to Teach
Him Who's the Boss.

Use of Double Loop Helps to Teach
Him Who's the Boss.
We suppose every one has a recipe
for the treatment of troublesome bulls
This advice on the subject is taken
from Hoard's Dairyman: In the first
place, bulls get unruly largely because
Of the superabundant energy that is
wrapped up in them They ought to
be made to work every day on tread
power or in some other way and get
real tired That will do more to re
press their masculine rage" than any
thing we know of
Second, if a young bull gets the no
tion in his head that he is boss, take
him out on the meadow or where the
snow is deep enough to make a fair
cushion and throw him with a double
loop a few times That will put more
sense of his inferiority in the hands of
man into his thick head than anything
we ever tried
The double loop is made in the fol
lowing manner: Take a half inch
rope, say. twenty feet long. Pass one
end through the nose ring. leaving
about six feet in front, thence up be
tween the horns. Then pass the rope
around the body just back Of the fore
legs and make a half hitch at the
backbone. thence back to the hips.
making another turn around the body
Just in front of the hind legs. with a
half hitch Mt the backbone. and carry
out the rope over the tail six or eight
feet in the rear. Let two men take
hold Of the end in front and two more
or the rope in the rear and give a
stout pull together, when down goes
Mr.. Bull as If he was shot. Hold him
down by the head few moments and
let him up Likely enough he will
make lunge at the men in front, but
another slow pull brings him to his
side with bang.
Throw him two or three times in
this way, and it will take the conceit
out of him wonderfully. You have not
struck him nor hurt him. nor is his
anger aroused He is simply non
plused and completely beat at your
power over him We have known of
several very cantankerous bulls that
were kept quite decent by an OCCASION

than others, and upon what other
feed they are getting. ! would con
slider forty pounds per day about the
proper amount
A bushel basket makes very con-
venient measure, as it holds enough
for one feed. Observe the cows, and If
any do not clean their portion up give
smaller amount at the next feeding
Never allow any silage to remain in
the hangers, as it will spoil quickly
and faint the milk
do not believe that silage can be
very highly recommended as a horse
feed 1t will do for colts and idle
horses, but will make the working
horses soft
Silage may be safely recommended
as feed for sheep when given in
moderation. When fed in any great
amount it causes a Ioosening of the
bowels and has other bad effects Pea
or clover silage is more valuable than
corn silage as feed for sheep.
The feeder must not lose sight Of
the fact that silage in itself is not a
balanced ration by any means. Al
ways feed bran, oilmeal, gluten or
other rations rich in protein in con
nection with the silage Where a good
legsme is fed also a smaller quantity

Measures to Be Taken to Meet a Com

The following is taken from Farm
and Fireside:
Few emergencies which arise on the
farm are more easily dealt with than
choking. In case of this kind we have
never known the white of an egg,
when poured down the sufferers
throat. to fail to give relief
ITO administer the egg quickly and
surely it should be broken into wide
mouthed bottle. When such bottle
is not quickly available, however, any
ordinary bottle may be used by using
a funnel to get the egg into 1t, and
where a funnel is not hand one can
be made by rolling a piece of paper
into the desired shape.
when everything is ready the anil
mails head should be raised as high
as possible, the bottle thrust far back
in the throat and the contents emptied.
The egg will Immediately pass down
and make the throat passage and the
offending obstacle So smooth that 1t
will pass on into the stomach"

OUR FIRST TRUST COMPANY.
It, Like Our First Bank, Was Estab-
lished In Pennsylvania.

lished In Pennsylvania.
1t was in Italy that the art of
banking as known in our times
was first introduced. The earliest
bank established in modern Europe
was that of Venice, which was
founded in 1857. 1t originated in
a loan which the state raised during
the great war of the republic with
the Greek empire, ll56-1171.
The bank of Genoa was founded
about 15O years after the bank OF
Venice. Macaulay in his History
of England has partial descrip-
ton of the operations Of this bank,
which existed from 1920 to 1898.
Previous to the year 1904 there
were only four considerable banks
in Europe, but en- the 27th Of July
of that year charter was granted
by William and Mary for establish
ing the Bank of England, which
for opuIence and extent of circula-
ton has for many years been the
greatest in the world.
The first bank established in the
United States is known in financial
history as the Pennsylvania bank.
1t began operating on July II,
1880, and since that time Pennsyl-
vania has figured conspicuously in
the banking affairs Of the country.
Besides being the home Of the first
bank in the United States, Penn
svlvania has the distinction of hav-
ing the first bank incorporated un-
der the national banking act Char
ter No. | was given to the First
National bank of Philadelphia. That
state is also the home Of the first
trust company In 1909 the Penn
sylvania company, corporation to
write insurance on lives and grant
annuities, was organized in Phila-
deIphia. In 1886 this institution
was authorized to execute trusts.
Not until 1858, however, was it
empowered to act as executor and
administrator w. G. Jenkins in
