Low Grade Rca Clover Seed.


Low grade red clover seed usually
contains large amount of brown,
dead seeds. In order to use the right
amount of seed for good catch Of clio
yer it is necessary TO know how much
of the seed will grow. When 10 pounds
are sown on an acre and only one-half
the seed sprouts, it is equivalent to
using only ~ pounds of seed which is
good, and poor stand is inevitable.
Not only should the percentage of ger
mination be known, but the seed
should terminate vigorously. Weak
seed will produce weak plants. These
seeds are generally light and are blown
out in well cleaned samples. but may
be present in large amounts in low
grades

Cost of Meat ana Butter.

The same feed which Is required for
producing one pound of butter win
make two pounds of gain on the steer.
The Minnesota experiment station
found that 100 pounds of grain mixture
with an equal amount of hay and roots
fed to four steers produced 24.19pounds
of gain and an equal amount Of the
same food fed to four cows produced
1904 pounds of butter. The type is not
of SO much significance with the steer
as with the dairy COW, for the reason
that steer not of good type may be a
large feeder and good digester and
convert all the food taken over his own
maintenance into gain, while COW not
of the dairy type has the alternative of
converting food either into milk or
gain. and she may choose the latter
when the owner wants only the former.
