Answer:—Under your conditions T believe you would do well to apply the fertilizer close to the hills of 50111 at the time yoware planting, Since you have not a corn planter with fertilizer dropping attachment, you will have to apply the fertilizer broadcast. If you have a grain drill with fertilizei' sowing compartment, results, but not as good results as a fertilizer containing acid phosphate or a straight acid phosphate alone. , The best method of managing the herd bull is to keep him in a strongly built box stall, with a small yard outside, where he can exercise and see the other members of the herd. The fence around the yard must be well built and braced. Strong cement posts with iron pipe set in the cem- ent connecting the posts makes an unbreakable pen. If a stout board fence is used, do not make the boards so high that the bull cannot see what is going on outside. A sire that is not at least one year old is too young for breeding, and the first year that the animal is used! for breeding, the amount of service should be limited, Because a bull eeems strong and vigorous is no reason why its breeding powers should not be protected Its carefully as the ease with other kinds pf Mem ammals. All bulls should be dehoened. This is a protection for the caretaker, and in addition the bull without horns is less apt to develop a pugnacious dis- position. The bull should always be ringed and led veith a staff, and if it is exercised by driving or using on a ;Mead mill, the greatest we must be taken to avoid injury to men working around the animel. When wo consider what 13 p001' sire can do to a good dairy herd 'and what a good sire can do for a poor herd, it is evident that more cone,ideration SEED CORN ACM:00/3Z should be given to the dairy bull.
