WILL fATTEN SHEEP
An important Side Line for the
Beet Sugar Industry in
Michigan.
IMMENSE FEED SHEDS ARE BEING
ERECTED AT LANSING.

The possibilities of beet culture are
again very forcibly illustrated in a new
departure which w. Ii. Gilbert Of Bay
City has introduced Mr. Gilbert is the
largest individual beet grower in the
state. and has studied the crop very
thoroughly Having heard of the
sugar beet pulp from the factories being
used in Germany and the far west for
fattening sheep and cattle, he decided
there must be field for that procedure
in Michigan.
These experiments will be conducted
at Lansing and in connection with the
Lansing factory. Sheds costing s. 600
have been buiit and 500 lambs were
bought in Montana and shipped 10 Mich.
igan this week They were brought
here In solid special train requiring p
cars, each car containing about 300 sheep.
a silo Is being constructed to feed them
regularly ana systematically on sugar
beet pulp and clover hay Thus each
sheep Is fed regular daily ration aud II
! Is expected that the sheep will not only
fatten far above the average If fed in the
ordinary pasture way. but the meat Will
be OF such rich flavor that it will easily
be worth two cents more per pound than
the ordinary mutton
The Michigan Agricultural College
will detail experts on sheep raising to
superintend the feeding of the sheep.
seeing that they are oil fed purely by
this sugar factory refuse ration, and the
sheep will be weighed once each month
10 prove the actual value Of this method.
If 1t proves all that is expected of il,
there will soon be sheep feeding silos
near every sugar factory in Michigan
The lambs Will be bought in the fall fed |
throught the winter, and marketed at "A |
time when the price of mutton is high. |
This is only one Of the many side in
dustries that will be brought TO our
state by the sugar beet industry. The |
mammoth chemical factory just nearing
completion In Bay City is another iusli.
tuition that depends entirely on the
sugar factories fer its supply of crude
material. Modern invention has made
1t possible for every item Of refuse from
the sugar factories to be utilized, and
there is nothing about the beet raising
farm or the sugar making factory which
now goes to waste. There is good use
for ali of it,either for chemical pursoses.
for cattle feed, or for fertillzing. The
sugar industry has great direct value
70 the state, but its value is almost
doubled by the indirect benefits derived.
