Cattle Feeding in Colorado.

The experiments now making at the
State Agricultural college farm in
cattle feeding without corn are Of
great interest and Importance. II
seems that evidence has been procured
that as good beef can be made in this
state BY the methods adopted on the
college farm as in the oorn-Rrowing
districts of Kansas and Nebraska.
Alfalfa Of course PLAYS an important
part in these experiments. its feeding
value having long since been shown
in numerous ways. BY combination
of alfalfa and other feeds excellent
results have been obtained. and II
upon large scale this method shall
oe found entirely satisfactory it will
lead to important results in the devel.
opmept OF the feeding business in this
state
There seems to be no reason why
feeding without corn should not suc
ceed AS we'll in Colorado as IT does in
England and other parts Of Europe
where the finest beef in the world Is
made by the use of root crops for feed.
Practically everything that may be
used as feed for cattle or sheep can be
produced to advantage in this state
except corn. for which the nights are
too cool. By the use Of other crops
Colorado may in time become as re-
nowned for feeding as it is now for
growing cattle and other kinds OF live

during the last year, there were made
into shoes the hides of 41,585 steers,
1892 COWS, 1882 calves, 1876
goats, 46,620 sheep, LAO horses, l.
020 kangaroo.
If all these animals were placed in
single file it would make one continu-
Gus line, 273 miles long, or about the
distance from Chicago to st. louis.
The number of animals required to
supply the hides for each working
day, if lined up at the Mayer factory
every morning, would reach almost
mile.
To work so large an amount of
material into the finished product ne
cessitated the employment of over 600
people all the year round. The wages
paid would support every man, woman
and child in city of 5000 inhabitants.
The Mayer factory has a capacity
of 5000 pairs of shoes per day. 1t is
located in the greatest leather market
in the world, and gets the first selec-
ton of hides, which is largely respons-
ible for the superiority of Mayer shoes
and the universal satisfaction given
to the vast army of people who wear,
and insist upon being supplied with,
shoes bearing the Mayer trade mark.

PRESIDENT RECOMMENDS PRUS-
SIAN STOCK FOOD.

Mr. John Dey, Hortonville, WIS,
President of Outagamie Agricultural
Society, says:
Gentlemen: Nearly two months
age you sent to my address at Horton
Vile a sample of your Prussian Horse
and Cattle and Poultry Food. 1 have
tried it in part. I have fed it to the
horses and it gives them good ap-
petite and makes them feel good and
look slick. The milk cows I have fed
it to. I think my COWS have better
appetite and look better and give
better flow of milk and help the test.
I have fed it to sheep and it seems
to be just what they want, and can
see a change. I have not tried it on
hogs or poultry, but believe it will be
a great help to them. am we'll pleased
with it and shall use it right along
and recommend it to all feeders OF
stock. JNO. DEFY,
President Outagamie County Agricul-
tural Society, Hortonville, Wis.
P. S. I think we farmers have lost
much for not knowing and using the
Prussian Stock Food.

It is a large sacrifice of possible
profit to under feed for a single day.
The pig should gain in weight every
day from birth to block. The more
rapid and regular this gain is made
the better the meat and larger the
profit. An average of 1 lb. per day
from birth to block, is under, rather
than over, the practical possibilities.
$50 lbs. live weight in ITS to $50 days
is not phenomenal nor uncommon.
This is never accomplished, how
ever, by half feeding for six or eight
months and fattening 30 to 60 days.
A stunted pig will use double the
amount of food per pound Of gain,
than that required by thrifty shoat
that has never been either hungry or
over fed.

in it's simplicity, as we'll as its perfect

CONSUMES MANY HIDES.

What becomes of the thousands of
hioes gathered together annually in

WHAT G. n. KNAPP ACCOM-
PLISHED.
PLISH ED.

G. H. Knapp of Stevens county has
a homestead of 100 acres seven miles
east of Colville. The land is what is
termed hill land, partly timbered and
rolling. When he took the home
stead ten years ago he did not have
money enough to pay the filing. He
has now thirty-five acres under Guilt
walton, including five acres Of orchard,
good farm buildings, seven head OF
horses, fifteen of cattle, seven being
mich COWS and one full-blood Jersey
bull, twenty-three sheep-Oxfords-
three brood sows, seventy--five hens,
several stands of bees and about an
acre of small fruits, including straw
berries, raspberries, currants and
gooseberries. From less than one
acre he sold 5000 worth Of berries in
1900. He is milking seven COWS this
year and making from thirty-five to
fifty dollars worth Of butter per
month. He has a separator and makes
butter, finding ready sale for all he
can make at good prices. During the
first three months of the year he sold
$50 worth of eggs. He keeps two
brood mares and raises a couple OF
colts each year.
Mr. Knapp is an enthusiastic, wide
awake man who has faith in himself
and his business and is justly proud OF
his work. At the recent county fair
which by the way was the best ever
held in Stevens county-he won the
sweepstakes on fruit exhibit, eleven
first and five second premiums on ap-
pies. He raises good wheat, oats and
barley, also alfalfa, red and Alsike
clover, timothy and red top. He
raised red clover this year six feet
high and alsike five and half. His
cows are grade Jerseys and he treats
them so kindly that they are never
afraid of him. He will go up and put
his arm around their necks anywhere.
He sells from twelve to fifteen hundred
dollars worth of produce each year;
hires very little labor and has no
store bills or other debts. Rather in
tensive, but profitable and satisfactory
farming.

AS a supplement to grain and milk,
good pasture may be equivalent to one
half the ration but on pasture alone
the gain is too slow to be profitable.
Under the combination systme, with
we'll bred pigs, on good pasture, ~
tons of mixed grain, with tons of
skimmilk should produce 1 ton of
pork.
Alfalfa makes the best hog pasture,
red clover next, a mixed annual pas
tire of barley, oats, sorghum is good.
Rye and winter wheat are both sue
cessfully used. In Oregon l found
some hogs doing exceedingly well on
vetch for summer pasture. At the
Wisconsin Experiment Station, one
acre of rape showed a feeding value
fo1 swine equal to 2767 lbs. of corn.
The first rs lbs. of growth on the
pig shows the largest gain per unit
Of food, averaging for well bred and
we'll fed pigs that are kept gaining
every day, first so lbs, 125 lbs. food;
second so lbs, Isl lbs. food; third
CU 1US., LOU lUO. lOOu, IOul Ill w 49,,
225 lbs food; fifth so lbs, $50 lbs.
food; sixth so lbs, 275 lbs. food. Be
yond this, few find it profitable to
feed. While those have known who
made the largest profit sell between
the fourth and fifth so, l. e., when the
slaughtered or shipped, at the earliest
opportunity. This gives a gain
equivalent of 800 lbs. for 200 lbs. of
pork If one-half of this is provided
in pasture. and the grain at the farm
is worth one-fifth the price of pork,
it shows a wide margin for profit.
For the SOW, while sucking pigs,
or for the young pigs, when they first
begin to eat grain, there is nothing
better than wheat shorts. Peas and
oats ground together are also an ex-
cellent feed for both mother and pigs.
A SOW sucking 8 to 10 pigs will
need fully one-third as much digest
ible nutriment as a cow on a good
flow of milk. While the COW might
easily get the necessary amount from
pasture, the SOW will rapidly lose flesh
on pasture alone, but if furnished one
half the necessary nutrients in grain
mixture containing Is to 20 per cent.
protein, she can gather the balance
of the ration from pasture.
Corn alone is not healthy nor an
economic ration for brood sows or
growing pigs, neither is barley; but
either barley or corn can be profitably
used for one-third of the grain ration.
The proportion of corn or barley may
be gradually increased until it makes
the entire ration at the close OF the
feeding period. Oats are good for
part of the ration, but as they are
less valuable, pound for pound, as hog
feed, than corn, wheat, barley or
shorts, it will generally be found
matter of economy to sell the oats
and buy shorts for pig feed, rather
than to feed much oats. Peas are
rich in protein and for this reason
are excellent to mix in the ration for
growing pigs. While it is true that
pigs can be grown and fattened ready
for market on a single kind of grain,
it is also true that that is not the
