REGISTRATION OF ANIMALS FROM 
PASTURE SERVICE. 
What is the practice of your association 
regarding the registration of offspring where 
the male is permitted to run in the pasture 
field with the herd? 
Our applications for the register of the 
animals are accepted upon affidavit of the 
applicant. Doubtless there are cases 
where pasture service has been the serv¬ 
ice used. I do not believe it is best, but 
it involves a question with a great many 
different views. h. a. martin, Sec’y. 
Red Polled Cattle Club. 
We record some animals from pasture 
service. Our Devon men seldom keep 
but one male animal, so there can hardly 
be any mistake in the sire. In the years 
I have been secretary of the club I have 
seldom' found any mistakes from the 
wrong sire. I think most bulls are kept 
in small enclosures and cows taken there. 
l. p. sisson, Sec’y. 
Devon Cattle Club. 
Regarding animals eligible to record in 
the American Duroc-Jersey Record As¬ 
sociation, the sire and dam must both 
be recorded and the exact date of far¬ 
row and service of each animal, giving 
year, month and day. No pedigree will 
be accepted for registration unless the 
above dates are given exact, and they 
must correspond with the litter mates 
that may have been previously recorded. 
We do no guesswork in recording. 
t. b. pearson, Sec’y. 
Duroc-Jersey Swine Breeders. 
Our association has had trouble in but 
one case through the matter you speak 
of, that is, pasture service, and this man 
was so careless and crooked in other 
ways as well that the association finally 
expelled him and received nothing for 
registry purported to be bred by him. 
As it is necessary that the application for 
registry shall show the name and number 
of the sire, as well as the dam, we have 
had no trouble of that kind, and would 
say that this association would treat such 
cases individually as they come up, but 
would not record an animal where there 
was any doubt as to the legitimacy of the 
pedigree. J. h. martz, Sec’y. 
Am. Polled Durham Breeders’ Associ¬ 
ation. 
This association has no fixed rule with 
regard to “pasture service” of cows. The 
requirement is that parties who send ped¬ 
igrees for record shall know that the 
pedigrees as made out are correct. It is 
the custom of some breeders of cattle 
to allow the herd bull to run in the pas¬ 
ture with the cows, and if he is the only [ 
bull with the cows there can be no doubt 
about the sire of the calves thus begotten 
than if the bull was kept up. The only 
objection to this practice is that breed¬ 
ers sometimes fail to note date of serv¬ 
ice. The majority of Short-Horn breed¬ 
ers keep their herd bull in a separate 
pasture, and we think this is the better 
plan. But we do not deny for record 
calves begotten by bull that pastures with 
the cows, provided he is the only bull 
that has access to the herd. 
b. o. cowan, Sec’y. 
American Short-Horn Breeders’ Asso¬ 
ciation. 
Our association requires that the breed¬ 
er shall certify to the breeding of the 
animal which lie wishes to have recorded. [ 
I see no objections to a pasture service- 
under proper conditions. It is custom¬ 
ary to let a bull run with the cows, and 
if the surroundings, are such that there 
is no possibility of another bull getting 
in with the cows I cannot see why the 
certificates of that breeder for the cows 
that were with the bull could not be re¬ 
lied upon as correct. It is my custom to 
let my bull out in the yard each day with 
the cows, and as I know there is no other 
bull with them, I can vouch for the serv¬ 
ice. In the Fall I turn a young bull in 
with my heifers in a lot by themselves, 
and as there are no other bulls in any of 
the adjoining lots or in that vicinity, I 
see no objection to calling the calves that 
drop at the right time to cover that turn 
ing in, by that particular bull. If a man 
let his cows and bulls all run together we 
would not accept his certificates, even if 
he picked out one particular bull and 
called him the sire, for there would be 
doubt about the sire in such a case. We 
intend to throw around our registration 
all necessary checks to mistakes or 
fraud. c. m. winslow, Sec’y.

Coal Ashes and Hen Manure. 
E. T. E., Elizabeth, N. J. —Can I use sift¬ 
ed bard coal ashes and hen manure for field 
corn, and how can I mix it. My ground is 
not rich. 
Ans. —Crush the hen manure fine and 
mix it half and half with sifted coal ashes. 
You will understand that the ashes will 
not add any plant food to the mixture, 
because they do not contain any. They 
add “bulk” and make the mixture safer 
for crops. _ 
Magistrate: Constable, what did the 
prisoner say when you arrested him?” 
Constable: “Shall I say all he said, your 
worship?” Magistrate: “Well, you might 
leave out the—er—bad language.” Con¬

to state.”—Ally Sloper.
