JhlbU"'8K diositlon Spends upon th handles and cares for him almost as much as It does upon He animal himself. A man who was looking for a herd rire remarked recently: "I wouldn't have a bull" Earning a very popular breed, "on my Place. They are all too cross." At the time he was visiting a farm where the herd bull was a regular watchdog. As soon as a stranger was seen he would begin roaring and pretend to be very vicious. Yet that sam bull when called by his caretaker would come 40 rods across his paddock and meekly put his nose over the gate oi the ttall door until the staff could be hooked Into the ring and would follow his leader anywhere. His predecessor in that paddock did his very best to kill that same attendant on every possible occasion. Why the difference? The answer is in one word, "care." The earlier bull was never handled. The latter was shown as a calf and was always handled. One purchaser at this rame herd remarked; "The ease with which your bulls handle is worth $100 to any man." No one wishes a herd bull for a family pet and no one wants a bull with the disposition of a heifer. But, masculinity and vlciousness are not necessarily simultaneous traits, writes H. E. Colby, in the Dairy Farmer. Let the bull know that his caretaker is boss at all times. Let him have respect for authority but do not keep him In abject fear. Frequent grooming is one of the best means of taming bira. Find the- - spot he enjoys having rubbed and scratch him there as often as possible. Usually, It Is on the back or ever the shoulders where his ponderous size will not permit him to reach. But do this with a good strong fence between you. When handling him always leave available a clear field for speedy retreat. If you must go Into the stall with even the most tractable bull, keep your position such that you can back away quickly and safely. Never stand between hira and a wall Always handle the bull without fear, but with every precaution for safety. An animal will know t If his caretaker is In fear by of him, and that is the best method of encouraging vlciousness. The best time to begin training the herd bull, so as to Influence his dis position, Is when a calf. If he Is handled from the time he drinks from a pail the process of taming will be much, easier. A ring In the nose at a year of age also ha? a quieting tendency. That aids handling. Frequent grooming and, If there Is an opportunity, a season or two In the show yard are the best possible Insurance against ugliness. ins-tine- Blue Grass Superior Crop for Pasturing Blneerass Is a cood. late fall pasture, but At its best it will Ed early soring poor in sum-- not carry as eany pigs to the acre as alfalfa, riover or rane. and thev nwd more jroteln feed wkh it Winter rye also saies a good fall and early spring jasture.

Economic reviews by state agricultural colleges and the United State Department of Agriculture In which by one-thir- It is necessary to feed and care for hens even more carefully than In the winter time, in the opinion of Charles N. Keen of the Colorado Agricultural college. Poultrymen are mistaken if they think that Just because they have good range for their laying flock they can do away with the mash and scratch feed. "Experiments have shown that Dest results are obtained when the consumption of laying mash Is Increased and scratch feed decreased during the summer months," says Keen. "It is a good practice when the hens begin t let up in production to moisten enough of the fine mash from the feed hoppers to last the hens about twenty at noon each day. minutes. Feed-Uii- s This practice will increase the conmasb so sumption of protein-carryinessential for egg production. During the winter mouths more scratch feed Is necessary to keep up body weight and provide warmth. In summer, heat la not essential and if hens get too much fattening feed they simply cease laying and put on weight." By this method the total feed con sumption will be less while the birds are on range than when they are confined to their laying houses. Production should, however, remain about the same and will be more economical. Other factors that will help get economical production during the summer months and also hold up the profits are proper sanitation, careful culling and management Naturally the death loss will be higher during the hot weather and all sickly birds should be removed from the flock as soon as noticed. Sanitation is also much more of a problem during hot weather, but it is necessary for profits. "Trying to force an early molt is a mistake," according to Keen. It has not been found practical. Get all the eggs you can while you can, he advises, and if you have good birds which continue to lay through the molt, they should be forced to rest be fore the hatching season opens the following spring. g Clean Out Mites and Bedbugs in Henhouse Chicken mites and bedbugs in poul try houses can be cleaned out by a thorough application of carbolineura painted on the roosts, dropping boards and in the nests. Gas drippings, obtained from around city gas plants, has also proven valuable in getting rid of mites, according to Iowa State college.

The reviews are prepared by trained farm business analysts. They present facts and Interpretations Intended to guide producers In adjusting production to market demands. A survey just completed by a committee of the outlook conference of the United States Department of Agriculture shows that 18 state agricultural colleges In addition to the federal De partmeut of Agriculture now are issuing, monthly, or more frequently, publications which make economic Information available to farmers in more or less popular form. Several additional states are contemplating the Issuance of similar publications. Start of Service. The application of this type of service which is freely used In the industrial world, by furnishing farmers with economic analyses of agricultural conditions, was started ehorily sfte? the termination of the war with the Issuance by the Unietd States Department of Agriculture of a publication called "The Agricultural Situation." The publication, a brief monthly summary of economic conditions and prospects aff f ting farmers, was in quick demand as presenting basic facta which could be used by farmers to make readjustments to changed economic conditions in domestic and world markets. Demonstration of the need by farmers for this type of Information led to the establishment of similar service by the state agricultural colleges, until d of the colnow more than leges are Issuing economic reviews dealing with farm conditions. The characteristic common to most of these publications Is an effort to present the basic factors which make up the current picture of production, movement, consumption, and price of farm products. Some states hold chiefly to the presentation of their own research results; others Interpret the origin. current data of world-wid- e Part of Broad Plan. The economic reviews are part of a broad program in which the United States Department of Agriculture and the state colleges are linked together, and which seeks to help the farmer to adjust his business as profitably as possible to the requirements of the market. The educational aspects of these publications, says the committee, have been and should be strictly adhered to. on Vof View to Subscribers FODQK Analysis Helps Y WJU& nrSTROY I 57 g not be your birds, you probably will eggs. with troubled soft-shelje- If a cool basement Is not available on the farm for storing eggs In summer, a small room muy be excavated under the henhouse or dwelling house, or a small structure built after the fashion of a root cellar, with Insulated walls and celling.
