Care Of Dairy Bulls.

Judicious management is quite as i'm
portant as careful feeding in keeping
bulls in satisfactory breeding condition.
Exercise is 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-
GUS. quick and sure than any other
method that can be employed unless
he Is accustomed to using treadmill.
In this event an hours exercise on the
mill daily will keep him in good form.
Any bull that has been carefully fed,
not permitted to become overfat, but
yet in thrifty. vigorous condition.
should breed until he is fifteen or six
teen years old fhe has always received

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 protitably and reproduce more
uniform quality in her calves than will
the grade.
Probably all of us from personal OBJ
servation agree that the pure bred sire
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 a day
The dairy business demands patience.
No dairyman can afford to neglect the
building up Of bis future herd. It is
his responsibility to breed better cows
