in other words, I believe them to
bo tho most docile breed of cattle
in existence, and nervousness is not
tonducive to largo production, said
a New York farmer. To be sure, the
Holsteins are not high testers in
butter fat, but quantity offsets qual-
ity twice over in many cases, thus
having the advantage over the oth-
er breeds in either milk or butter
production. The illustration shows

Denman Such a Vali pen should be
ventilated and well lighted and ar-
ranged so that it may be darkened iu
tbe summer time to keep out the flies.
He should be kept clean and provided
with sufficient bedding material to pre-
vent injury when getting up and down,
as large animals resting on their knees
on concrete or plank are very apt to
bruise them and cause enlarged joints.
Exercise Is necessary to the health
and general thrift of the breeding boll.
The best way to exercise the bull is
to have a small lot tightly fenced and
allow intra to run with one or two in
calf cows. In this way he will be
more contented tban if kept confined
alone. If kept confined in a foul pen,
where he is constantly fretting, he will
have a spoiled dispoeition.
Always handle breeding bulls care-
fully and treat them kindly. If proper
precautions are taken there is very lit
-
tie Clanger, yet it is always best to be
on the safe side and handle them
with a staff. The idea that a bull
must be ill treated to know his place
is a mistake. Ile is conning and
treacherou$ and if abused will await
bis chance to even up with you, and
when be does get hie temper aroused
he is a very dangerous animal to be
around. It is many times best to put
up with a. few of his eeeentricities than
to undertake to club them out of him,
or you will have a merry tinae in
bringing him to your own way of
thinking.
As a role, it is best not to use a
bull for service until he is fourteen or
fifteen months old, and then he should
be used carefully. Handled properly
during the first two years he may be
used many years.
The young and growing bull should
have more feed, care and attention
than an older animal. He need % more
exereice to build up healthy and vig-
orous vital and reproductive organs,
This demands a strong and vigorous
body and nervous system. No animal
can -develop into that symmetrical form
that he should unless he has plenty or
the right kinds of food and good care.
Neither will he be able to beget calves
that will be a credit to his ancestry if
he is kept in a rundown, emulated
eonditien.
If we get good results we must keep
our breediug bulls in good, thrifty on
dition. To the accomplishment of thla
end we MUSt feed them liberally and
give Deere dean and well ventilated
pens, Handle them quietly and not
overtax their vitality by too much
service. The well kept bull and Ina

successful stock farmers and dalrye

Lest We Forget
WE need to be reminded quite as
much as to,he informed. Mem-
ory has been joculaily described as
"the thing we forget with." Ou't of
sight is apt to be out of mind.
An advertiser who relies on the
memory of the public leans on a brok-
en reed. The absence of its advertis-
ing from the newspapers has been the
beginning of the end for many a firm.
"The present suitor has ever the ad-
vantage over the absent lover?"
A business that has achieved its magni-
tude or strength as the result. of faithful ad-
vertising plays itself false if it suspends or
ceases its advertising, on the gronnds of econo-
my. It is poor business vision which fails to
see the principal feeder of business, and fatal
judgement whicli cuts it off or interrupts its
flow. Economies, may be warranted, but they
had better be effected in any other department •
than in. the sales department—the department.

customer back from you or hides you from
your customer is ruinous. The man witli the

Mules and War,
Along all the frontiers of the world
wherever there is a war there is a de-.
mend for the mule. Compared with
bira the much vaunted war horse is a
Vanishing figment of the past. His
strength, his Rureness of foot, his wari-
ness of eye, his ability to endure hard-
ship and hard work on little food and
with little care, have made him invalu-
able as a campaigner, whether in des-
erts or mountains. The mule has seen
the camel and the elephant disappear
from armies. He may see the horse
vanish. Ile has seen the motorcycle
and the motorcar come in. He tarty
see the aeroplanes numbered by thou-
sands. But it is not likely he will ever
see himself superseded in bis own line
of work. There`taay be mules without
war, but probably never is war without
mules.

"Father," said the student, "I want
to talk to you about changing my
course of study."
"Talk to your mother, son," directed
the father, who was reading the sport-
ing page.
"Mother," said the son, "I made a
mistake when I elected cheraistry, But
it Is not too late to change even yet. I
want to take astronomy instead."
The mother searched the eyes of her
son sharply. Then she said;
"Nape. You'll have to think up some
better excuse for staying out at night!"

has taken the matter in hand, and as a
