You can use an in-built software from ubuntu to put that on USB Stick. Go to System Tools -> Administration -> Startup Disk Creator. Select the USB device and the Ubuntu image. Would take about 2minutes and then you are done.

To be clear, this answer only applies if you're currently running Ubuntu on your computer. These instructions will not work if you're running Windows or OS X. – Nick Weinberg Jul 24 '16 at 09:04
