VALUE FOR FEEDING.
In estimating the comparative value OF
several Of these products for feedings l may
be best understood by calculating that land
that will grow SO bushels Of corn per acre
will also produce ~ tons Of clover hay
TX atthe first cutting and l at the second
tons Of meadow hay, and 500 to 600 bushels
of roots. These crops will vary on differ
emit soils 30 that, while not strictly correct,
thoy are near enough for our present pur-
pose. These calculations are made from
8 table Of nutritipe equivalents in the
/ Arnual Register for 1861, p. llS, in which
the result of "several different expert
ments " makes 100! pounds Of meadow'ha
equal to 95 pounds Of clover hay, 262 of
ruta bagas, 346 Of field beets, $50 Of car
rots, and Sc pounds Of corn. The corn
stalks will be Of some value, and the second
cutting Of clover hsy not quite 30 good as
the first 80 I will allow 2 pounds Of clover
hay to l Of CORE. Then SO bushels at 60
pounds per bushel per acre Of corn will
make an acre of corn equal to 3 tons OF
clover hay or Is acres Of clover. On the
same estimate Of 2 pounds of hay to ! of
corn, ana Two COns per doro, ~ WIZ snno a/2
acres Of meadow hay to equal acre of corn.
Calculating turnips and carrots at 500
bushels per acre, and beets at 500, one
acre of roots will be nearly equal to two
acres Of corn-the root tops being put as
an Offset to the corn-stalks. This is for good
corn land. In many sections land made
rich enough to grow so bushels Of corn per
acre may produce from 700 to 900 bushels
of roots while good corn land may be
made to grow from 80 to 100 bushels Of
corn and from 800 to 1900 bushels of
roots-and even these crops are not equal
to many premium crops reported at differ.
emit times. Such crops make very large
amount of feed, and in value for feed and
manure combined are seldom exceeded.
Corn sown in drills for~fodder is often
made to yield large amount Of feed.
Common northern corn does well grown in
this way while experiments have been
published that indicate that when well
MANFRED more feed can be grown by SOW
ing the large Dent corn than in any other
way-root crops not excepted.
