Prof. Andrew M. soule, director OF
the Tennessee Experiment Station,
says: The feeding of cattle has not
been engaged in as extensively in the
middle south as the natural conditions
would warrant owing to the frequent
though ill-founded belief that the win
ter feeding of cattle could not be made
a profitable industry because of the
limited supply of corn available for
feeding purposes. There is no reason
why much more corn should not be
grown without increasing the present
area by Improving the culture now
given the land, though if~the present
corn crop were properly supplemented
BY the iudicious use of cotton seed
