Feeding for Manure Tho Value or bran

The feeding Of cattle for manure IS
subject for profitable study through
the winter. Manure is the most val.
liable crop that farmers can produce.
It can not be purchased except In the
shhpe Of costly fertilizers, or at ex-
orbitant prices that farmers can not
afford. At its usual market value OF
$50 to IS per ton it is largely used
by thousands of farmers. But It can
be made for much less than this price.
Milking cows use up 20 per cent Of
the manurial elements Of their food.
young stock 10 per cent and fatten.

straw and ton of hay fed with 500
pounds OF cottonseed meal will make s
