Names of Holsteins 
(Continued from page 23) 
ledge there are no more Holsteins brought 
from Holland to this country, but, on 
the other hand, nearly all foreign coun¬ 
tries, including Holland, are coming to 
the American breeder for blood to iir 
prove their own Holsteins, which goes 
to show that we do not now need their 
native names as an advertisement. To 
illustrate that the breeder of Holsteins 
in the United States does not care so 
much for the old Dutch names as he did 
formerly, we have such names as “King 
of the Pontiaes” for probably the great¬ 
est bull that ever lived. Other noted 
sires bore these names: “King Segis,” 
Spring Farm King, Pontiac Korndyke, 
King Model. King of the Black and 
Whites, “It,” King Dollar, Mighty Mon¬ 
arch, etc. One could fill a considerable 
space with these simple and easily pro¬ 
nounced names. And, as mentioned be¬ 
fore. the tendency is for the plain Amer¬ 
ican names, as the American breeder does 
not need them any more, for he is pro- 
not need them any more. f. ii. wood. 
Stray Stock in Connecticut 
We have had several references lately 
to stray stock found in Connecticut. A 
number of stray heifers have come upon 
the premises of our readers lately, and 
being newcomers to the State of Con¬ 
necticut, these parties did not know just 
how to proceed. It seems that the Con¬ 
necticut law provides ror just such cases. 
When any person takes a stray animal 
into his custody, either an unknown 
animal or a known animal which is tres¬ 
passing on his premises, a definite line of 
proceeding is established. Where the 
owner of the animal is known the person 
whose premises are entered by such ani¬ 
mal must give immediate notice to the 
owner, if such owner be known to him. 
He may demand from said owner for 
every horse, mule, ox, cow or calf 25c, 
and for every sheep, goat, goose, or swine 
10c. together with just damages for in¬ 
juries sustained. When such demand is 
made the owner shall be entitled to the 
possession of his animal, if applied for 
within 24 hours after such notice. 
When the animal is astray and the 
owner is unknown, the person who takes 
the animal up shall give notice to the 
town clerk with a full description of the 
animal so taken. A record of this de¬ 
scription is kept by the town clerk, and 
pasted on the schoolhouse nearest to 
where the seizure was made, and also a 
sign pasted near to the clerk’s office. 
It must also be published in a newspaper. 
There must also be published in a news¬ 
paper notice that such animal will be sold 
at auction in.not less than 15 or more 
than 30 days. The town clerk shall sell 
the animal in case the owner does not 
appear, and out of the proceeds retain his 
fees and charges, and then pay to the 
person who seized the animal 25c or 10c, 
according to the character of the animal. 
He may also pay a reasonable compensa¬ 
tion for its care and keeping. If any 
surplus remain the clerk should pay it to 
the owner of the animal, but if he does 
not demand it within one year after sale 
the money is paid over to the town. The 
owner of any animal seized in this way 
may have possession of it upon payment 
within 10 days after the notice of sale 
of 50c for the larger animals and 25c for 
the smaller animals. Half of this amount 
goes to the benefit of the town clerk, and 
half for the person making the seizure. 
The owner must also pay all damages 
due to the animal and a reasonable com¬ 
pensation for its care and keeping. 
Strange Case with a Bull 
I had a year-old bull that I raised for 
service. A man whom I have known for 
a long time asked me for the bull for the 
Summer months. He drove him to his 
farm and used him, as well as several of 
his neighbors. Some time ago one of his 
neighbors told me my bull caused abor¬ 
tion, and that all the neighbors who had 
used him were having trouble with the 
cows. I went to the borrower, who had 
concealed the trouble, but wanted to biing 
him back immediately. I told him not to 
bring the bull back to my place, but that 
I would give the bull and settle damages 
for $100. He now says he will not buy 
him ’and that there are no damages. I 
am ready to use him now, aud it is a £ioat 
inconvenience not to have him. In the 
early part of the Summer this neighbor 
wanted to buv him when he thought the 
animal was all right, but refuses to do so 
now. He says he has had a veterinarian 
who claims there is no danger, but I know 
that it is a terrible disease, and do not 
care to run chances. As proof that the 
bull was not infected when he left my 
place, my cows are all freshening now 
with good healthy calves and never lost 
one. c ' 0> 
We never heard of such a case before. 
The man who borrowed the bull must 
give it such care as under all the cir¬ 
cumstances would be considered reason¬ 
able. If he knew when he borrowed it 
that bis cows had abortion we do not 
think he gave it the care required. If he 
did not know it. it would seem to us to 
be one of the risks the lender runs when 
he loans a bull. Morally, and we think 
legallv, the borrower should pay the dam¬ 
age in this case. But as we understand 
this disease, if the bull is thoroughly 
cleaned with disinfectant there is little 
danger, and the lender might have trouble 
in proving his damage. It would seem to 
be a case where a peaceable, friendly set¬ 
tlement should be made.
