Since we cannot always tell for certain when animals need min- erels. it is the wise farmer who makes it a policy to keep his stock well supplied with minerals.

THE BlI.E'l FEET

A fact that we often fail to con- sider is that a herd bull, depend- iru on his age and condition. must carry all of 1500 to 2200 pounds of his weight on four hoofs, which are roughly the size of an ordin- ary saucer. Taking this one sim- ple fact into consideration we can then realize the full importance of haviru the bull's feet in proper shape so that the weight is dis- tributed evenly and the animal naa freedom of movement. ' One of the results of untrimmed hoofa is that possibly nothing tends to reduce a bull's activity. affects his physical condition .end general usefulness more' than feet which are sore and callused 'resulting from the fact that his feet were left untrimmed. A heavy mature hull with long sled runner boots will soon begin to limp and dis- play an almost creeping gait when he-walks. This hindrance to his normal freedom of movement is evidently caused 'by the spread- ing of his toes under the pressure of his body weight. It doesinot take much imagination to know. or effort to find out, that when this spreading takes place the soft tender part between the toes on the base of hoof, are let down un- til those vulnerable parts come in contact with the ground causing hoof to become sore and tender. A bull that is thus sure footed is not likely to be of much use for breeding.

Ofillharily nature takes care of the trimming of animal's hoofa. This was accomblished by the fact that bulls and cows travelled a good many miles each day on dif- ferent types of soil. The constant wear would keep the hoofs trim- med or worn down and in proper shape. It is not only important to trim older bull's feet alone, the core of the feet and the hoof trim- ming is equally important when the bull is young. If a young ani- mal's hoofe are. allowed to grow too loru he eventually will stand guru abnormal position and as his

y grows. he will take on some of these abnormal conformations.

One of tbe,first essentials of the cattle man's equipment are cattle stocks. Stocks can be useful not alone in trimming hoofs. but also in administering other medical attention to herd individuals. Al- ways remember that stocks must be substantially built so that it is madereasy to restrain the animal." if you wan! some ideas or plans in constructing animal stocks, con- tact your agricultural representa- tive or write to the Department of Agriculture. Box I. Charlottetown. Before trimming the hoof it might be helpful to soften the hoofs by keeping, the animal standr ing for several hours on wet straw. shavings or sawdust, or allow him to run at night on pastures.cov- ered with heavy dew and trim be- fore hoofs have become dried out again.

The equipment needed other than stocks. is not extensive - hat is. I pair of hoof nippers, a one ehd I lifilf inch or one and a quarter inch wood chisel and a hoof rasp. The technique to follow is very simple. First. using the hoof nip- pers. cut away any excess hoof on dis bottom. then cut back the uses. Thirdly. with a hoot reap.

the he chisel to pare down the heel and level up the entire sur- fees of the bottom of the-hoof. Givi particulxr attention to the iltllde points of the toes. Lastly, tahstheres toshapeupthe toe to its norm dorm.
