BULL HANDLING
is DANGEROUS
Quiet Animals Suddenly
Become Vicious.
By DIR. GEORGE z. TAYLOR

BY DIR. GEORGE z. TAYLOR
(ErtsHSioH Dsirynas AZ New Jersey Col.
IsEs Of Agriculture. Rutgers UaiVsfsity)
Every day is a lucky day" for
The dairyman who is careless about
handling dairy bulls-he'S lucky to
be alive!
II is often the s"quiet" bull that
suddenly turns on his caretsker.
And dairy bulls which are closely
confined are likely TO get playful
when they are handled. and just as
soon as a playful bull discovers his
own strength, he becomes vicious.
But there are numerous ways 10 in
sure reasonable safety.
The bull stan should be construct
ed Of durable material that will with
stand heavy blows. Cement or ex-
ira heavy metal tubing is satiSise-
tory. The fence surrounding the
outside exercise paddock should also
be built Of extra heavy material.
Discarded boiler fiues that are set
in cement posts are often used. AS
long as bulls are properly confined
they have less chance OF injuring
human beings. From the standpoint
Of safety. IL is a definite mistake to
allow a bull to run with the dairy
herd. The use Of safety breeding
pens further reduces the necessary
handling to minimum.
A strong bull staff which is at
tached TO a heavy metal ring In the
bulls nose should always be used
when handling becomes necessary.
A bull should be trained to a staff
before one year Of age. II is also
wise to remove the horns at about
one year Of age or when the bull
shows the first signs Of becoming
ugly. Removing the horns will often
tame down young bull for an in
definite period.
From a management standpoint,
It is advisable to provide pasture
exercise paddock Of several acres.
On larger farms where several bulls
are needed. they can be turned to-
gether in pasture. Thus they will
get ample exercise and will not
store up lot of energy that must
find an outlet sooner or later.
1t is, however. a good practice
TO handle bulls occasionally in order
to keep them accustomed to 1t. This
should be done without taking any
undue risk. Bulls that are never
tied or handled in any way actually
get afraid Of a caretaker in time
and may be most unruly. Always
remember that any animal is usual
ly able to sense when the care
tsker is shy and timid. Train bull
so he will always understand that
you mean business and that you are
not afraid. A bold front plus safety
precautions will avoid unnecessary
injury.

Betsy, setting her teeth hard above
the little sob that tried to clutch
her throat 'T'll always be crazy
about him, I guess. He's a pretty
wonderful person"
And is he in love with YOU ?"
asked Mr.. Markham gently.
Betsy's eyes widened enormously
and she gasped.
."Oh, goodness-nol Why, he
doesn't know I'm on earth. He
adores his wife; she's beautiful and
good and-well, everybody thinks
she's wonderful. I do, too. That's
why I felt so terrible when / knew
