some breeder or dairyman in the
neighborhood and arrange with him
to keep the bull for a certain definite
amount of service. In this arrange
ment do not require too much service
of the bull by allowing too low a
value to be put on such service. In
the agreement require that the bull
be well kept and not allowed to run
with a herd of cows, but separately
and in some definite place where he
will always be accessible to those
who are entitled to his service. If
two or three such organisations are
gotten up in a neighborhood the ben
efits will bo greater because then a
larger number will use good bulls
and exchanges may be made to avoid
too close inbreeding.
Such arrangements can be made
«f a really high class bull is obtained.
We have not the space to discuss
the details of this question further,
but must insist that in buying the
bull, two matters be given chief con
sideration:
In the first place, be certain that
the aire and grandsires of this bull
be producers of high-class dairy
cows and also that their dams be
good dairy producers.
In the second place, be equally
certain that his dam and granddams
be good dairy cows and that their
sires are also producers of other
cows of large dairy capacity.
With these two points assured suc
. cess is practically certain.
HORSES NEED EXTRA CARE AS SPRING WORK BEGINS.
II* Kaperially Watchful of Colt*—Don’t Change Feed or Work
Too suddenly—Monte llulea That Will Save You Trouble.
By Dr. G. H. Glover. Colorado Agricultural College.
The first work in the spring is the
hardest of the year, and the horses
are the least prepared to do heavy
work. To he deprived of the use of
a horse in the spring is serious, even
though the horse is not greatly de
preciated in value or lost entirely.
Young horse*, especially, should be
broken and given some work during
the winter and should he fed some
grain. This will toughen their shoul
ders, and at the same Ume they will
hate become accustomed to grain
and will, therefore, he less liable to
colic, and in every way better able
to stand the work.
A sudden change of food in horses
is always dangerous, hut to start a
coll In on grain, with heavy work,
Utat has never had either, ia almost
sure to he disastrous. A young horse
especially cannot stand heavy pulling
•11 day on soft ground unless his
shoulders are well hardened by reg
ular work In the collar.
Here are a few suggestions which
will he well worth remembering:
1. When a tiorao is tired, he is
much more subject to colic.
3. Do not change the feed on the
horse during heavy spring work.
3. There is much more danger lb
feeding corn or wrheat than there Is
in feeding OSt*.
4. Water your horses when you
first bring them In from the field;
then let them eat hay for a half
hour, and give them their grain last.
3, Pull their shoes off while doing
the spring work. _
6. Remember, the horse will have
a heavy coat of hair, and will, there
fore, sweat easily and be all the more
likely to catch cold and get pneu
monia. For the first week or two
bathe the neck and shoulders with
cold water every night after the
day's work is done.
7. See that the collar fits snug
aud that the harnes are buckled up
tight. The shoulders are less likely
to be scalded and bruised without a
pad than with it If the horse gets
»*e«nied, be will have to be laid off
for several months.
8. Guard against that dangerous
disease— axaturla. This disease al
most invariably comes on after the
horse has been resting two or three
days during a storm and kept on full
feed. Reduce the grain at least one
half while the horse Is not at work.
Founder Is caused from too much
feed, a sudden change of food, or a
drink of water when the animal Is
warm. Distemper Is especially liable
to attack the young horses in the
spring of the year, just when their
services are most valuable. This
disease is contagious, aud care should
be exercised against exposing the
young horses to the infection. The
most common way that young horses
get this disease Is when they are tak
en to town and allowed to drink
out of public watering troughs and
tied to hitching posts where other
horses have been tied that had the
disease.
