Bull calves should have rings put

Exercise for young bulls in box stalls

MR. AND MRS. THOS. B. REED
"SARGON has brought health,
strength and happiness to both
my wife a d me and I would not take
all the nroney in the: world for the
good it has done us," declared Thomas
B. Reed, well-to-do farmer and lum-
berman, residing at 919 Holmes St.,
Kansas City, Mo.
"Five years ago when on the train
going from Bonn•sana, Canada, to
Calgary, I had a severe attack of
acute indigestion and nobody thought
I would lis e to reach my destination.
When I came to myself I was in the
hospital at Calgary.
"Since then I have suffered con-
stantly from bilious attacks and split-
ting headaches that lasted for days
at a time. Everything I ate dis-
agreed with me. I had smothering
spells that made me think I would
die. I would get so dizzy I could
hardly stand up, and I was constipat-
ed all the time. I was nervous and
did not get a good night's, sleep for

years. Many nights ''fi• would get up
and sit in a chair for hours.
"Sargon made a well man of me.
My nerves are steady as a die and I
sleep like a boy. My old-time
strength has returned and I have
gained 15 pounds. I feel fine all the
time."
Sargon helped my wife, who is the
mother of 13 children, the same way.
She has actually gained 15 pounds in
weight and feels better and stronger
than in many years.

ful master in the Masonic order and

'THE DEVELOPMENT OF YOUNG
BULLS
The .management of young Short-
horn bulls in orders to obtain the
maximum degree of growth and de-
velopment within a limited space of
time requires the exercise of a con-
siderable amount of skill and unfail •
ing attention, and probably the best
tutor is experience. In beef herds
where the sale of young bulls is the
chief abject, success very much de-
pends on the manner in which the
young hulls are managed and while
there are various systems of manage•
-anent employed, different herds may
turn out equally good animals, though
they have been brought up under
quite distinct conditions. New milk,
however; always plays a very import-
ant part in the growth and develop-
ment of the bull calf. He must not
only i;f• gken new milk but plenty
of it. There must be -no stint and
whether he suckles it from his own
dam, or a foster mother, or drinks it
from a pail, is simply a matter of
choice and circumstances, In practic-
ally all herds of the purely beef type
the usual practice is to suckle the bull
calves on their dams and if any calf
shows signs of more than ordinary
promise to give him another cow in
addition to his own dam where he is
about four months of age. Bull
calves are often allowed to nurse un-
til they are nine or ten months old,
not on their own dams, for so long
a time, because they would pull them
to rags, if in -calf, but they are given
a nurse cow and sometimes two until
they are that age.
On the other hand, in herds in which
milk production is the chief object,
and where every care must be taken
of the cow's udders, all being hand or
machine ranked, the bull calves are
put on pail feeding at two or three
weeks old or suckled on a nurse cow.
Big, stror:r calves must never be al-
lowed to rug se cows with well -shaped
udders or with high milk records be-
cause not only is it impossible to
maintain the shapeliness of the ud-
der, but a proper record cannot be
kept.
days without water to induce him.to
drink milk when offered to him. Some
are very stupid and can never be in-
duced to drink from the pail and con-
sequently lose `condition for a time.
On the other hand, a calf that has
been pail fed from the first few
weeks of his life can be given an in-
creased quantity of milk in accord-
ance with his age. Under the suck-
ling system the milk the calf gets
from his dam decreases as he gets
older and needs more, unless he is.
given a foster cow, while under the
pail feeding system not •only can the
milk be increased as he increases in
age, but substitutes such as a cream.
equivalent can be introduced into the
milk, so that by the time it is thought
advisable to wean the young bu!1 from
new milk, it can be replaced by a
substitute and this will be found a
great help to a big framed growing
bull.
At the same time, a pail fed calf
will not carry the condition that a
suckled calf will at six or nine months
old, but at 12 or 15 months will ba
;Telly as good in condition, coat, and
bloom, provided that he has had plen-
ty of milk and a liberal ration of
other suitable foods.
The rearing and management of
young 'bulls requires the exercise of
some discrimination because, whereas
a comparatively heavy outlay is justi-
fied on the best, it is waste of food
and money to incur a heavy expendi-
ture on animals that are never likely
to be of much value. Such animals
should be steered for the beef mar-
ket, but all the same, some young-
sters greatly improve with age and
condition hides many faults while a
moderate calf sometimes grows into
a very valuable sire and makes a
small fortune for the purchaser, even
if he does not bring much profit to
the breeder.
No pains should be spared to bring
out young bulls for sale in the best
condition and well grown because
prospective purchasers like to see
what an animal's powers of develop-
ment are, whether he is required for
beef or dairy purposes.

It is very important that when bull
calves are weaned they should rot be
allowed to lose their calf flesh, con-
sequently at an early age they should
be taught to eat some concentrated
food, also hay, so that when they lose
the milk the loss will be balanced as
much as possible by the consumption.
ofother foods. Under six months old,
they require a moderate allowance
only of concentrated food because at
that age they should be having an
ample supply of new milk, besides,
there is always some risk of over-
feeding a young animal. After six
months a strong calf will eat a fair
amount of concentrates and a few
roots may be added to the ration if
available. In Britain linseed cake,
crushed oats, bran, hay and roots
form the staple diet of the young
bull. Constitution and capacity for
assimilating food differ and these
points must be carefully studied in
the feeding of young bulls. The ra-
tion must be increased according to
the age and capacity of the animal.
In the case of those intended for ex-
hibition or of oustanding merit, some
breeders adopt the system of "mash"
feeding. The mash is composed of
crushed oats and bran with a little
maize and bean or pea meal mixed to-
gether, the whole being scalded early
in the morning and fed to the young
bulls twice a day when cool. Hay,
roots and linseed cake are given in
addition, but it is very important to
see that all, is cleaned up before an-
other feed is given. Where bull
calves run out . on the pastures with
their dam's a pen is sometimes made
into which they can enter to be giv-
en cake and meal, so that when wean-
ed in the autumn there is no difficulty
in getting them to eat enough food
to compensate for the loss of the milk.
An experienced herdsman should be.
able to see at any time whether the
young animals are being properly fed
according to their digestive capacity.
Overfeeding is soon apparent in lax-
ity of the bowels and by the animal
developing fever in the feet in which
case the quantity of rich food must be
decreased and a strong dose or two
of purgative medicine administered.
Animals of delicate constitution can-
not stand forcing, but it may be said
here that a young bull 'of delicate
constitution that is unable to stand a
reasonable amount of high feeding is
not worth keeping entire and should
be steered. Young bulls should be
kept in good roomy, well ventilated
loose boxes with a south aspect So
In regard to the question as to
which is the better system for grow-
ing young bulls, by suckling or by
pail feeding, much depends on the age
at which the young bull is to be of-
fered for sale. If, as is the custom
in some leading herds of beef Short-
horns, the bulls are sold as calves at
from six to ten months old, there is
no doubt :'rat the best method is that
of suckli.,e• on the cows and when
they are r f supefior merit giving them

calves n -e e high figures they pay

sume and resides it must .be borne in
mind the, when they are getting a

trates al required, while no other
food of any kind imparts so much

SMOOTHER FABRICS FOR
SPRING
Woollens that look like silks and
silks that look like woollens, and cot-
tonr which can be substituted for
both make the fabric situation at the
same time interesting and complicat-
ed. There are numerous novelties in
which silk and wool are combined,
wool and rayon, silk and rayon and
cotton and rayon. Another striking
characteristic of the spring fabric col-
lections is the widespread use of
faconne motifs. This means that in-
stead of plain silks and woollens we
shall see many with neat self -pat-
terns,
In the new tweeds flubbed effects
have largely disappeared. The spring
edition has a smoother surface, is
thinner. and more tightly woven.
Many of them are woven in the de-
signs of men's suitings.
Wool crepes have all the quality,
appearance and weight of silk crepes,
and lend themselves to the same
treat. The newest versions of jerseys
are like wool lace, loosely knitted in
many different patterns. Cotton and
lisle meshes are enjoying a high
rating for sports shirts and short
sleeved tuck -ins.
'The insistent demand for the tailor-
made suit is bringing back with it
serges, twills and tricotines. Man-
nish shirtings are competing with
shantungs for the preferred place in
sports silks. Stripes,- plaids, checks
and dots in self -colorings on a crepe
ground are made into a 1930 version
of the shirtwaist dress. Shantungs in
many variations are used for suits
as well as sports dresses.
Silk is also exploited in the tailor -
type suits, especially crepes. The
newest of the prints are lace designs
printed in black on very light colored
chiffons which are eagerly seized
upon for formal afternoon and eve-
ning costumes.
Cottons, too, are woven to look like
woollens and are handled like wool-
lens in the same way. Crash tweeds,
shantungs, piques, both plain and
printed, sudanette, and heavy linens
are made up in severe tailor -type
suits and dresses. While organdie,
handkerchief linen, batiste, particu-
larly eyelet embroidered, prfhted nets
and the sheerest and finest of cottons
are blossoming forth in picturesque
and dainty formal afternoon and eve-
ning dresses.

BATTERY NEEDS GOOD CARE
DURING WINTER
Because a battery is subjected to
five times as much work in winter as
during the summer, it should be kept
in A-1 condition to eliminate the
annoyance of difficult starting. There
is also additional strain on the bat-
tery due to greater use of lights on
account of the shortness of the days.
The terminals of the battery should
be kept free from corrosion. If they
become corroded they increase the
resistance, causing an increased load
on the generator and the danger • of
burning it out. If connections be-
come loose, the same effect is •likely.
The charging rate of the generator
also should be advanced to give a
greater Tr tq of charge, Miring of any
kind is • bound to Ibecon'Ie corroded,
and the wiring of it sear should - be
inspeeted carefully. •- f title ie doing..
