Visualize Better Cows,
First Step to Success

If you expect to build a house you
begin by making a mental picture of
the kind of house you want. SINH
larly, if you are going to build high
producing herd of dairy cows you
should begin by forming mental pic
ture Of how you expect to accomplish
that task. One is not likely to sue
coed very well at any undertaking un-
less one first visualizes the completed
job as well as the intermediate steps
required to bring it to completion.
Here is statement, which with va
riations has been made thousands of
times by different people: Starting
with a herd of ten common cows, the
man who uses good purebred bulls
and selects the best heifers to keep,
can in five years be producing as
much milk and butterfat with ten
cows as his neighbor is producing
with fifteen ordinary cows.
This and similar statements have
not only been repeatedly made, but
they have also been proved true in
practice. We all know that it can
be done, because it has been done by
thousands of farmers. Furthermore,
it can be done without the expendi-
ture of lot of money.-Wisconsin

HARD WORK WAY TO
TAME UNRULY BULL
All Viciousness Eliminated
in Short Order.
By FRED M. HAIo. Dairyman North Caro-

BY FRED M. HAI0. Dairyman North Caro-
lima State Couege.-WNU Service.
Bulls kept in small pens or stalls
soon become vicious and unruly and
do not stay in the best breeding con-
| dition. Neither is it wise to keep the
animals in the pasture with the cows.
Usually they become actually danger
| Gus.
At Vanceboro the other day, how
ever, / found a man who had solved
the problem of handling an unruly
bull to good advantage. This farmer
owed bull that was getting more
vicious each day. Finally, when the
owners patience had about become
exhausted and he was ready to sell
| the animal for meat, he decided to
make yoke and put the bull to work.
After about two weeks of training, the
bull was well broken and now works
every day. The owner said he had
even used the animal in logging and
that he was stronger than any mule
on the farm. After a few weeks of
hard work, the bull lost all signs Of
viciousness.
This man not only kept a valuable
animal but also got an extra dividend
from the labor performed. The bull
| got plenty of exercise, as he was
placed in the pasture each night.
1t is essential in these days Of low
farm profits that only sires from high
producing cows should be used. Some
times such sires get mean before the
owner knows the record of the daugh-
ter cows. and it often happens that a
valuable bull is sold for beef before
his true value has become known. No
| bull should be sent to the butcher just
because he is hard to manage. Work
out some suitable plan for controlling
him. Give him plenty of exercise and
| green grass and study a system of
management which will correct any
tendency to viciousneSs
Do not keep scrub bull because
he is gentle and don't kill good,
purebred bull because he is mean.

FARM I
POULTRY
KEY TO CHECKING
COSTLY CHICK ILLS
Ravages of Coccidiosis May
Be Prevented.

The highly contagious disease, coc-
cidiosis, which takes heavy toll in
young chicks, usually can be prompt
ly controlled by feeding dry or liquid
skimmilk or buttermilk and practicing
proper sanitation in the brOOder house
and yards, according to the laboratory
of animal pathology and hygiene at
the College of Agriculture, University
of Illinois.
There is no effective treatment for
adult carriers of the disease. For
young chicks dry milk should consti-
tute 40 per cent of the mash, and
liquid skimmilk or buttermilk should
be fed straight. These feeds should
be before the chicks at all times for
q period of two weeks and should be
supplemented daily with a small
amount of grain and green feed.
Coccidiosis is a filth-borne disease,
and consequently sanitation is the
foundation Of control, it was pointed
out by DR.. ]. p. Torrey, assistant path
ologist of the Illinois state department
of agriculture, who is stationed at
the laboratory. Contaminated drop
pings become infective within 4S
hours or more. Hence prompt and
regular cleanliness in the brooder
house, hen house and yards is very
necessary. Contaminated soil is the
most common means of spread, since
the disease may live there for two
or three years. Attendants often car
ry the infection into the brooder house
from contaminated yards. A system
of yard rotation or keeping the fowls
on wire or concrete is the only way
to eliminate soil infestation.
The disease is caused by microscop-
ic protoZoan parasites which develop
and multiply in the walls of the fowls
intestineS. The acute form of the
disease occurs most in chicks two to
ten weeks of age and causes death
without noticeable symptoms. In sub
acute attacks, loss of appetite, drOop-
mess, ruffled feathers, dropping wings,
drawn-in head and death in two to
four days are some of the symptoms.
The droppings may be bloody, brown
ish or quite dark. Bloody droppings
usually are seen in the early stages
of an outbreak. The chronic form of
the disease occurs mostly in older
fowls and usually is characterized by
loss Of appetite, loss in weight, dirty
plumage, paleness of the comb and
wattles and sometimes paralysis.
Since such fowls are usually carriers,
they should not be in contact with
young chickens. Doubtful cases of
the disease should be referred to the
local veterinarian for diagnosis.

Let Hens Choose

The free-choice method of feeding
grain to poultry has shown good re-
suits at Ohio State university, where
each Of the grains were placed in diff
ferent compartments Of a salf-feeder.
Preference of the birds varies greatly
depending upon their condition, the
time Of the year, weather and rate of
egg production, states d. c. Kennard,
poultryman. At the University of Wis
consin, studies indicate that some birds
naturally prefer one kind of grain to
another, and because Of this difference
in taste, eggs varied in yolk color more
than when birds were all forced to eat
the same grains.-Prairie Farmer.

Winter Quarters

At least by October and preferably
earlier, the pullets should be moved
into winter quarters If one expects
them to make creditable showing this
winter. 1t will require some time for
them to become adjusted and it will
be well for them to become acclimat-
ed before the changeable fall weather
occurs. Then, too, change in hous-
ing conditions may be the very thing
that will throw them into a fall mott
which, above all, the poultryman
wishes to avoid.

Selection of Breeding
Rooster Vital Matter

BOOSTERS, if matured by the begin
ming of the breeding season are more
reliable breeders the first season than
afterwards, producing more young,
though the quality may be somewhat
inferior to what the same birds would
produce in their second and third
breeding seasons. In large breeds mate
six to ten hens with one male and
with lighter breeds the proportion
may be as high as IL to Is hens to
one rooster. Males should be kept sep
arate from the females except in the
breeding season. In large flock
where males and females run together
promiscuously the dominant male may
be ruined by overwork. Some regu-
lation is advisable in such cases.

wool right off the poor creatures.
However, they dope the animals first
with a medicine which makes them
shed their wool. To prepare the
sheep for the plucking a small dose
of a preparation of heavy mineral
salts is given them. This is said TO
act on the synthetic nerve system

Il designate as such place, Cape Isabella,

cities of Europe and America. In order that this

In different lands to the honor of Columbus

Plaza of SantO Domingo City which has since
been called the Plaza de Coon-and his ashes
have been enshrined in the cathedral in the city
of Santo Domingo yet the idea of monumental
memorial conceived and built by all the people
of America, would not die.
At the time October II, 1S92-the four hun
dredth anniversary of the discovery of Amer
ica) that the Santo Domingo government con-
structed the great monument that holds
the remains of the discoverer and placed it in
the cathedral there, their hope was later to
move this tomb to an appropriate structure,
crowned by a lighthouse. Lack of funds made
this impossible, and it was not until 1914 that
really systematic labors were begun to bring
about the building of the memorial lighthouse
to be participated in by all America.
The leader in this work was William e. Pull
liam, an American then receiver of Dominican
customs, whose labors resulted in enlisting the
interest of editors and publicists throughout
North and South America. Mr.. Pullian also was
the first to appear before the house committee
on foreign affairs, where he explained the pro-
jected memorial and urged the United States
government to participate in the proposal to
make this testimonial of gratitude of all the
Americas to Columbus assured fact.
But international support of the long-sought
memorial failed to crystalline until 1923 when

states met at Santiago de Chile. Here reso-
