Care of Dairy Bulls.

Judicious management is quite as i'm.
portant as careful feeding in keeping
bulls in satisfactory breeding condition.
Exercise is a prime essential. If young
bulls are placed in paddocks they will
usually take sufficient exercise. but
this is seldom true of an old bull. A
better way to insure sufficient exercise
is to lead him a mile or two or even
farther every day. This exercise will
do more to keep him healthful. vigor-

method that can be employed unless

In this event an hours exercise on the

SOY BEANS FOR THE SOUTH.
Belief That This Legums May Be
Profitably Rotated With Cotton.

The department Of agriculture and
the various state experiment stations
are conducting wide experiments to
discover the various forage crops best
suited to conditions In the southern
states, says the Home and Farm. The
soy bean is now the subject of thor
ough experiments in various sections.
While the bean may be grown
throughout the humid and semihumid
sections of the south and in the south
ern portion of the corn belt, it thrives
especially well in the cotton growing
regions. For this reason it offers an
excellent opportunity to the cotton
planter for adjusting his farm plans to
Offset the damage to cotton inflicted by
the boil weevil.
From the farmers point of view the
existence of the many oil mills In the
south and the probability that by fur
nishing a demand for soy beans these
concerns will make the legume an i'm
portant cash crop should greatly facili-
tate the introduction of the new prod
net ON commercial scale. Soy beans

should he of additional interest to
farmers since, as in the case of other
legumes, their culture improves the
soil.
AS pasturage crop this legume is
rich in protein and is particularly suit
ed for pasturing hogs. especially so
when the beans are grown for soil i'm
provement. When the plants are young
and tender the hogs will practically eat
the whole Of the plant, but after they
become mature and hard and woody
they will not be eaten so readily. BY
planting the same variety at different
dates or by using varieties with differ.
ent dates of maturity the grazing may
be extended over n considerable period.
Although this crop is chiefly used for
pasturing hogs. all other kinds of live
stock may be pastured on it If desired.

PORK RAISING PAYS.
Success Depends Largely on Good Hogs
and Right Feeding.

and Right Feeding.
Is the problem Of making pork at
profit any greater now that grain feeds
are high? Have we not correspond
ing rise in the values of the product so
that we are just as well off? Let us not
overlook the fact that only good hogs
pay at any time. says the Farm Jour-
nal. Poor swine. poorly kept or wormy.
are losing proposition under all con-
ditiOns Of the market.
In keeping first quality hogs, espe-
cially pure breeds, there is always the
additional inducement of occasional
sales at good prices to breeders. But in
feeding there is right way that should
not be forgotten. If you have skim
milk or buttermilk or are near cream
cry where these may be procured at a
cost of 40 cents per hundred or less it
will add quality to the ration and do it
profitably. Skimmilk is among the fore
most feeds as a grower Of young stock.
while it has few equals as a fattener

CHICKEN CHATTER.

A few thorough applications of crude
petroleum TO the interior of poultry
houses will destroy completely the COM
mon red mite infesting chickens.
Notwithstanding that many good
breeds have been imported. the fact re-
mains that not one of them can be
.classed with our American production.
After blowing and before seeding
turn the poultry In on the freshly turn
cd up earth.
Use good, vigorous breeding stock.
Remember that weak chick in most
cases can be traced to poor breeding
stock.
AS to poultry diseases, folks are to
blame for most OF the trouble encoun-
tered In that direction.

production of pure bred cows is dis
tinctly recommendation. The above
figures are taken from the list of tested
cows issued by the Jersey. Guernsey,
Ayrshire and Holstein associations.
Certainly conditions of feed and care
affect production. 1t is equally certain
that the farmer and not the COW is re-
sponsible for these conditions, and it is
my contention that under similar con-
ditions the pure bred COW will produce
more proftably and reproduce more
uniform quality in her calves than will
the grade.
Probably all of us from personal OBJ
is desirable at the head of the herd.
Have we analysed the reasons why?
He is simply reproducing the qualities
of his pure bred forbears in building
up the producing ability of the herd.
Would a grade bull do the same?
Would he impart the same uniformity
to his get? Not in one case out of fifty.
No dairyman ever got rich in Il day.
The dairy business demands patience.
No dairyman can afford to neglect the
building up of his future herd. 1t is
his responsibility to breed better cows
with every generation. The grade COW
is a handicap in breeding. So many
conflicting lines back of her prevent
prepotency, and she fails to breed true
to type" Her daughters are just as
likely to be inferior as to be superior
to her. On the other hand, pure bred
stock carefully selected and judiciously
bred afford a foundation for improving
quality with every generation.

I contend that the pure bred COW on

something more, writes II. ID. Hutchin-

The average production of the dairy
cows of the United States is approx

On the contrary, the average produc-
ton of 11,169 pure bred cows tested to

Lime Excess Wasteful.

Field experiments recently completed
at the Pennsylvania station indicate
that large excess of lime or limestone
is wasteful and that only a slight ex-
cess over that necessary to 'sweeten"
the soil or neutralize acidity should be
applied. For the average acid soil
with Pennsylvania conditions one ton
Of burned lime or twice that amount of
ground limestone per, acre is sufficient
for an initial application.

During some winters mice are very
