Farmers to Grow Sugar soets

Colon G. Lille writes the Michigan
Farmer as follows concerning his crop
of sugar beets:
81 started out to grow go acres of
beets last spring, but the weather would
not let me get in over 40 acres. People
said L could never get help enough to
tend these, but l did. / cultivated
them, thined them and hOed them in
fairly good shape. On % acres we have
a good crop-better than last year; the
balance are not so good, and l attribute
this to late sowing. My experience so
far is that beets should be sown early.
People said I could never get them har-
vested, bnt they are nearly all topped
and would have been completed long
ago If it had not been for so much rainy
weather. Had the railroad company
put in my sidetrack on time and fur
nished the cars, could have had them
nearly all hauled now. AS it is, we
have only two cars loaded. 1t looks
-discouraging now for the hauling. The
roads will be muddy for some time, to
say the least, but 1 hope for better
weather soon. am little nervous
over the outcome, but if the weather
holds off as it did last year all may come
out well. Last year we did not begin
to harvest until November. and finished
topping on the 10th. If we can get cars
we can finish yet before cold weather, if
it holds off like last year.
l have worried over my beet crop this
year. Forty acres is more than should
have attempted with my limited ex-
perience. 1t is such different crop
from any we have ever attempted be-
fore. Financially, the beet crop will
scare man half to death if he only has
limited experience. There are good
many dollars tied up in crop of 40
acres of beets and not one dollar comes
back until the thing is all done. But
when the money does come it surprises
the farmer who has only raised corn and
oats and wheat.
A farmer lhould not put in too large
an acreage 1t is too big a job. He
will have to neglect some of his other
work, and this should not be done.
am convinced that every farmer within
reasonable distance of a factory should
grow some sugar beets every year.
believe he will find it profitable after he
learns how to grow and handle them
But he can easily overdo the matter and
make himself more work than he car
handle to advantage.
Farming is changing all the time.
Only few years ago the farmer and his
help spent the entire fall in caring fol
his corn crop. Now it is put into the
silo or husked with a machine in a
hurry. Only few days are required
to care for large crop and the farmer
finds his teams and men have practical
ly nothing to do the latter part of the
fall. He can raise certain amount OF
beets, furnish work for his teams and
men and make it profitable. A certain
acreage of beets fits in here and makes
farming more of business.

Feeding Boot Pulp To Stock.

With the growing of beets in a com
mercial way for the production of sugar
throughout certain sections of our west
ern country new factor in stock feed
ing has been introduced. The Colorado
station has taken up the study of the
feeding value of beet pulp. and has also
conducted some experiments in feeding
pulp and sugar beets to COWS. B. G. Buff
fun and G. J. Griffin report the results
of these experiments in bulletin % of
the Colorado station recently issued.
Some interesting figures are given to
show the value of beet pulp in stock
feeding, as demonstrated by various in
vestigators. European experiments,
feeding beet pulp with alfalfa hay for
roughage, and linseed oil cake as the
concentrate, showed beet pulp to have
value of 81. IS per ton for feeding beef
cattle and $l.5S for feeding sheep. Cali
fornia farmers estimate that they can
pay from 25 cents to dollar per ton for
the pulp The effect on the milk fov,
when fed to the cows was appreciable,
but there was no change in the fat
content.
In New Mexico and Utah sheep and
cattle have been fattened for market
with no other feed than pulp and alfalfa
hay. The Michigan station test showed
that one ton of pulp was equal in value
to 421 pounds of corn stover, or sixty
nine pounds of grain. The nutritive
ratio of the pulp is 1905 The pulp is
usually about 80 per cent water. A ratio
for fattening cattle sgiven as 10 pounds
alfalfa, 25 pounds beet pulp, 2 pounds
cottonseed meal and pounds corn meal.
The Colorado experiments in feeding
beets and beet pulp to cows indicated
that the beet pulp had considerable
value as feed for dairy cows The
principal value of the pulp is in giving
bulk to an otherwise concentrated ration,
thus aiding the digestion of the animal.
Twenty-four pounds of the pulp gave
about equal returns with twelve pounds
of sugar beets in milk production, but
the fat content of the milk, given by the
beet-fed cows was slightly higher. The
pulp-fed animals made considerable gain
in flesh, while those fed beets made but
slight gain. A feeding value of So 81
per ton is assigned to the pulp by the
Colorado experimenters.

Rey. Fir. Barth, of Stephenson, U p,
recently spent some time in this part of
the state investigating the sugar beet
industry. We quote paragraph from
his report: II spent six days travelling
over the suger beet districts and l paid
special attention to the small farmers.
In the vast majority of cases I learned
that it was by far the best paying crop
and every farmer was taxing his prop
erty and help to the utmost. As has al
ready been pointed out, returns vary,
but failed to learn of case where any
farmer cleared less than $2S per acre
and many cleared as high as $50 to $45
per acre. The exceptional case of fail
ure 1 could easily attribute to mere
shiftlessness. I was gratified to learn
that the farmer in lower Michigan at
tributes his present successful condition
to the sugar beet. Most farmers are
out of debt, and money-lender assured
me he would have to get out of bust
ness as mortgages were getting out of
style"

Amos Parmenter, a prominent farmer
and feeder of Vernon, Mich, made the
Drovers Journal very pleasant call this
morning. He is here buying feeding
lambs, and sent out close to 1,5OO head,
mostly Idaho, averaging close to SO lbs.
A portion of these will go to his neigh
bors, Mr.. Parmenter feeding about
1,0)0 head. His home is in the center of
little circle that does a very heavy
business in sheep feeding, as many as
1000 head having been fed at various
times within radius of four miles. He
says there is an abundance of feed this
year, and farmers who realized excellent
results from their feeding of lambs last
year will do la a-ger business than ever
before. Chicago Drovers Journal.

To the Atlantic Monthly for November
William Dewitt Hyde contributes the
leading article, an important and stimu-
lating paper on "The New Ethics. -
President Hyde is one of the few Amer
lean writers with the rare gift of making
the discussion of such theme at once
stimulating and intensely interesting.
This paper, read in connection with
Benjamin Ide Wheeler's pungent paper
on Things Human" should suggest to
all thoughtful readers some very signif-
icant aspects of American thought.

Of Interest To Hunters.

The hunting season will soon be open, so far, at least, as turkeys and deer are concerned, but there is yet more than a month before quail can legally be killed in the state. The World has been asked the ques- tion frequently: "When do the limitations expire on different kinds of game?" and furnishes herewith a brief statement re- garding the killing of the three most important.
 Deer may be killed any time between the first day of Septem- Der and the first day of March.
 Turkeys may be killed between September 1 and May 1, two months longer being allowed than for the hunting of deer.
 Quail may be killed between October and March 1, the "sea- son" for cartridges beginning one month later than for the other two, and being three months shorter than the season for turkey shooting.
 Hunters should make note of these limitations, as they are fixed by law, and be careful n ot to commence too early nor to continue too late.-Helena World.
