IVANS, Manager. a 1 THE WPNGHAM ADVANCE CATTLE FEEDING, Attention bas frequently been called to thefact that the cattle feeder gets his largest profit not directly front feeding operations, but rather fl'otn the increased productiveness of his land, says the Iowa Homestead. But the average man likes to see n profit on every branch of bis operations. Un- less five stock farming c'tin be coaled on so that by and for Itself it pays well for the time occupied to carrying it on, then no amount of screahulug from the house top will ever shake the live stock industry take permanent root on the farms of the corn belt. One of the experiment stations re- cently finished up a bunch of steers ;bat were fed shelled corn, cottonseed Admirers of Hereford cattle af- firm that as rustlers they are un- equaled. They will go farther for a bite to eat or a drink of water than any other breed.- Herefords will find and consume more waste ' feed on a farm than any of the thin skinned breeds. Iierefords are the best feeders and will make more pounds of gain for feed con- sumed than other cattle. They are unexcelled in beef type and havo plenty of scale, good bone, a blocky conformation, good ribs, heavy quarters and thick loins. The Here- ford cow pictured was a prize win- ner at Chicago last fall, meal and clover bay. These steers were purchased at $5.55 per hnedred pounds, and they were sold for $8.25, but in spite of this good spread in value the net profit per steer was 63.37. It cost $14,23 to make a hundred pounds of gain on these steers, coni puting the feed at regular market prices. In an adjoining feed lot a similar number of steers were fed the same length of time, but in this case corn silage was used in place of clover bay. These steers were bought at the same price—namely, $5.55 per hundred pounds—and they sold 10 cents per pound higher than the steers fed on bay, or for $8,35 per hundred pounds. Their gains were made at a cost or $9.88 per hundred 'pounds, and the net profit per steer in this case was $20.90. These results are worth ponderieg over by those who propose to follow along the same old fashioned route in feeding cattle. The cheap gains in this case were due to the fact that a given acreage produces a larger- amount of good fattening food in'the form of en- silage than can be produced in any other way. The man who tries to finish cattle on dry feed alone must in- the future compete with those who lake this short cut to cheap gains. There can be only one outcome of a situation like this—namely, that the practice of those who use the cheapest sheat mute ing foods will be the basis of cost in the future. Those who cannot bring the cost down to this minimum point by the use of this comparatively inex• pensive food will be eliminated from the business or they must continue to carry it on at a loss, relying wholly for their profit upon the effect of feeding operations on the productiveness of their land. As said before, this profit will not suffice in the case of the aver. age man. If dry feed cannot be fed at a profit then quit feeding dry feed. If ensllage reduces the cost of making gains anywhere from 2 to 4 vents a pound, then how is this competition to bo met by those who do not feed en silage? Pig Ailments. Cough in young pigs is very often caused by -dust in the bedding. Dry, short, chaffy oat straw is most likely to cause trouble in this way. The cough often ends in fatal pneumonia. The cough may also be due to exposure or to damp sleeping places. Suet) causes should be removed. Thumps in young pigs is induced by overfeeding and facie of exercise. 1f both the mother and pigs are made to take abundant exer- cise daily trouble such as this will be unknown. Salting the Curd. The curd should he spread out thinly over the bottom of the rat and the salt • put on In tit least three 0pplientions. Lash time it should be evenly distrib- uted over the surface. After each sprinkling the curd should he stirred with curd forks. 1f the salt is implied too rapidly the outside of the small pieces harden, and absorption is hln- dcred.

Experiments Prove Its Great Worth as a Feed For Stock. The South Carolina experiment sta- tion recently published a bulletin by Archibald Smith giving the results of tests to ascertain the value of different kinds of forage crops fed with cotton. seed meal. The main fludings are of especial value to the farmers of the south and of great value to farmers in any section of the country. The bulle- tin demonstrates anew the economy of 00111 silage as beef producing feed. In this test silage, corn stover and cottonseed hulls were compared. The test demonstrated: That corn silage gave by far the best returns not only in economic pro- duction of beef, but also in the quality of beet and the shape in which it reached the market. That silage fed steers produced beef from 15 to 20 per cent cheaper than the other feeds. That silage fed beef lost less in ship- ping to market. This is a test which some shippers have disputed In the past, declaring silage fed beef lost se- verely in the shipping process. That the silage fed. group produced gains that would warrant a value on the silage of $G.80 per ton—this earn- ing on a very poor market, ns the steers sold for only $5.50 per hundred. Had they been sold on a good market the gain might have been increased 20 per cent. That with a cost of $2 per ton for the production of corn silage a fair aver- age,good corn should be made to earn from $00 to $70 per acre. WHEN TO CUT YOUR HAY. Some Pointers For Growers of Tim- othy and Clover to Bear In Mind. Timothy may be cut in the forenoon as soon as the dew is off and raked into windrows immediately after din- ner if the weather is dry and clear. Any hay preserves best its color, aro- ma and palatability by being shocked or placed in the stack in the greenest possible condition without being so green that heating or molding will oc- cur. If the timothy is very heavy and Is exposed to dew or a light shower be- fore it is raked it will frequently be necessary to use the tedder in order to shape it up thoroughly and get rid of moisture. Except intoe case of small fields ltn- der conditions which would not justify an outlay for machinery, there is very little of the hay crop which goes into the old time shock. This is undoubted- ly a very satisfactory way of curing hay in its best condition, especially if protected by a shock cover, but where large amounts are to be handled it is better economy to place it in a mow or stack it directly from the windrow. Clover is best cut when it is in full bloom, but it is better to cut it earlier than this rather than later. If cutting is delayed until. some of the clover blossoms mature and turn dark there Is likely to be a heavy loss of foliage and a consequent deterioration In feed - Eng value.—Orange Judd Farmer. Economy Bean Harvester. . To make a bean harvester that will do good work and yet involve scarcely any expense take a common hoe to the blacksmith. Have shank cut in two-- and take a piece of steel of the same di-�. ameter and have a piece about t e n Inches long weeded in. This is to keep the handle from striking the beans and shelling them. have the hoe sharp and cut just at top of ground, putting two rows into one when chop- ped off. • You can chop them nearly as fast as you can walk, and when the beaus are dry take a common pitchfork and load on to a wagon. In this way much hard labor is saved with but little expense. —Farm and Fireside. Test Cows --and Farmers Too. One of the best effects of the cow testing associations is on the farmer himself. Ono of the men who look after the cow testing associations said to ns once that the had repeatedly no- ticed that that farilher was a "gone case" who could not bo aroused to bet- ter thinking and management by the work 01' the test. Too many farmers expect the cows to change for the bet- ter without doing anything in that di- rection themselves. — Hoard's Dairy- man. Give the Lambkins a Chance. Lambs frequently experience a diffi- culty in finding the teats owing to tihe long wool surrounding the udder, and it Is eery important that the shepherd examine every ewe and use the shears to -cut away any surplus wool. Tilts will enable the lambs to feed with greater case, and they are less apt to become victims of wool balls in the stonier!), which fregnently cause death, --American Agriculturist.
