VIII Price Of Beef Advance 7

WIN FTlCc OF bGcI AUNdnCCf
Some of our beef makers express
the belief that beef will, twenty-five
years hence, be much higher than at
the present time. More than that,
they assert that the general average
price for beef during the twenty-five
higher than during the twenty-five
years just past. We are afraid that
this will prove true. 1t certainly will
unless we find some way Of feeding
beeves more economically in the future
than in the past. 1t is desirable that
the people have an abundance of meat
food, and they cannot get an album
dance Of meat food unless it is cheap.
Let not the beef maker imagine that
he will be the gamer by greatly in.
creased price of beef in the future. II
beef becomes high, it will be because
the cost of producing 1t has become
great. In the domain Of beef making
there is still open competition, and
there probably will be for a good
many years to come.
But that the price must advance
seems about certain. The area of
cheap land on which cheap beef has
been made in the past is being con-
stantly reduced, and more and more
of our market cattle are being pro.
duced on highpriced land. On such
lands it Is becoming every year a
greater problem how to so feed beeves
as to make money out of them.
There are good many farmers al
ways going out of beef raising because
they have become discouraged at try
ing to solve the problem of how to
make beef on high-priced land. Ev'
cry man that thus gives us beef pro-
duction increases the price of beef
by reducing the supply.
The only factor that would seem
to enter into the problem on the side
| Of low price for beef is the effort now
| being made by our experiment sta
tions to encourage the growing OF
| forage crops with greater nutrients
than in the past, such as alfalfa
where it can be grown, and highly
| developed variety Of corn carrying
an unusual proportion Of protein. II
| it ever becomes possible to grow q
variety of corn having double the
usual amount OF protein in stalk and
grain. with no lessened yield per acre
the process of beef making may be
| reversed, and the silo fed steer be
| come the cheap meat producer.

The Dairy Laborcr,

In an address to Missouri dairymen,
Robt. Pethbridge said: Successful
dairying cannot be carried on where
labor Is short, or where the hired
help is lacking. In my travels find
this to be great complaint among
dairymen that they cannot get help,
but | am sure it is mostly their own
fault. for | can name many successful
dairymen who have no difficulty in
that line, because they are treated in
a proper and business like manner,
such as fair wages, regular hours and
| liberal treatment. He must compare
the dairy help with the city laborer
in wages; they will vary in different
parts of the country in hours of la
Dor; the city man has his 10 hours
| laily and pay for overtime, whereas
the country man as a rule works
| longer hours and no pay for overtime
| This is one of the great objections
Of the man working on the farm for

have been studying or taking some
recreation to improve my mind and
body, to render it better fit for the
duties of the morrow. Liberal treat
ment will do more to bring employer
and employed together, than wages.
The giving of cottage with garden
patch and allowing them to keep a
cow for the use of the children in adj
dition to the weekly wage gives the
country employer the advantage over
the city and more work can be &C.
complished and your man can be re-
lied on, which is very important. In
the hiring of labor, there are many
good dairy hands coming from Eng
land, Ireland, Germany and Scan
1inavian countries, who are glad to
get a job when they arrive in New
York, and they naturally seek an EN-
ployment agency and those who wish

FEEDING Unhusked Corn.

Farmers have been feeding a great
deal of corn in the bundle and good
many acres, perhaps 10 per cent of
the whole crop, is still in the field
frozen down. After being forced by
the early and violent winter to sus-
pend husking and then from necessity
feeding the machine harvested corn,
in the bundle, farmers have found
that 1t Is not bad way and many
will plan to feed a considerable part
Of the crop hereafter in this way.
Husking corn in the present condition
of the help question is expensive
business, anyway. 1t is not likely that
farmers have found the best, most
economical way to handle the corn
crop for husking by machinery, but
many who have used the method
have reckoned that it has cost them
6 to 10 cents per bushel to complete
the work. This is too large a part of
the value OF the crop to give for husk-

CORN once, clover hay once, and corn

son, Eaton Co., Mich.
Some feeders practice the feeding
of unhusked corn all the time. They
claim that the cattle chew the corn
more and that the husli going into the
stomach with the grain improves the
chances for its digestion. 1t is GER
tainly saving in labor. We would
like to hear from others that have

Buyinu Feeds,


A good many farmers make light OF
balanced rations and equally so Of the
constituents of the feed they buy.
They purchase their feed supplies
largely on the market quotations
based on a certain weight. When
bran was selling at $500 per ton re.
;ently and gluten feed at $500 there
was a great demand for bran. Yet
The bran contained only about IL per
cent Of digestible protein and the
gluten feed q per cent Let us fig.
ure little. There were about 240
pounds of protein in the ton Of BRAN
and that cost SIS. This was paying
GA cents for each pound of protein
In the bran. The gluten cost $1,000,
but there was $40 pounds of it in a
Ton, which was cost per pound Of
VA cents. Any man can see the point
ind that the high-priced feed was the
cheapest when values are considered.
The above is but an illustration Of
Ahe recklessness shown by many In
the buying of feed.
We heard of man recently who,
when oats were selling at about 500
per ton, ground them and fed them to
his dairy cows That was certainly
an absurd thing to do when protein
feeds in other forms could be bought
very much cheaper. The wise thing
for him to have done would have been
to sell the oats and put the money
into other feeds, thereby saving sew.
eral dollars per ton on his oats in
addition to the cost of grinding.
1t is indeed true that, as some say,
"a man needs to have q liberal edu.
cation" to know just what feeds to
buy. But 1t is also true that the
farmer that expects to succeed in his
business in these days must make
study of his business to the same
extent as the city business man has
to do. When farmers do that, the
sellers of feed will sell what the
farmers really need to buy rather than
what will make the dealers the most
money. Dealers in all kinds of goods
generally sell to the Intelligent
trade" the things that have merit, but
to the "unintelligent trade" they sell
anything that will yield a profit
whether it has merit or not.

Localizine Sheep Raising.

For several decades there has been
very strong tendency for the sheep
raising industry to localize itself in
the vicinity of the Rocky Mountains.
That tendency is still strongly appar.
ent, as is seen by reference to the
statistics of sheep population state
by state. There is at the present time
no increase of sheep in any of the
states east of the Mississippi river,
though the population in that region
is constantly on the increase. No in
crease in numbers of sheep means a
comparative decrease, as the supply
is not keeping pace with the increas-
ing demand. But we do find the
states along the foothills of the
Rockies showing larger populations
of sheep every year. Were the range
there unbounded, we might look for a
continued movement of the sheen pop.
ulation toward it. But it Is evident
that the limit of sheep population
there has been about reached. Ev.
cry available acre has been levied
upon, and is now doing all it can to
produce feed for sheep.
We may expect before long to see
gradual shifting of sheep-raising
interests toward the east, accom-
panied by an increase of price paid
for sheep on the hoof. More sheen
must be raised than have been raised
in the past, and the expansion must
come on the farms of the county east
of the Great River
