FEEDING VALUE OF ROOTS.

j ELDlNp ALL Il VI INOoI -
There is an old adage. says Prof
Thomas r. Hunt. which reads some.
} thing like this: NO grass, no cattle;
10 cattle no manure: no manure, no
crop" Grass rs fundamental; il is
paramount as a feeding substance dur.
ing the seven or eight months of the
year. The great grass family is the
most important factor in livestock
farming. Grass answers for feeding
purposes when sufficiently plentiful for
six months, then the grass becomes
hay.
] wish 10 say q word for the great
value Of timothy. In New York State
feeders are up against the proposition
Of supplying sufficient dry matter TO
sustain a profitable amount Of stock.
We must raise something TO take the
place Of Western grain when il comes
10 the business OF competing with the
corn belt. We raise ia tons OF hay
per animal unit. while the great mid
die West raises but three-quarters Of
q ton per animal What We need is
something TO feed with hay that is
more digestible. Hay alone will keep
a horse warm. but in cold weather he
will get poor on 1t because it takes
more energy 10 digest hay than IL is
worth.
Generally speaking. only about fifty
per cent. Of hay is digestible. On the
other hand. roots are almost completely
digestible. Roots cannot economically
take the place OF silage. but they can
take the place Of grain when fed with
hay We can secure about 1000 pounds
Of dry matter from an acre OF land IL
put in corn and the corn made into
silage. but 10000 pounds Of dry mat
ter have been raised In roots. ! am
not saying that this amount can be
raised by any one, but ] have known
this amount 10 be raised on an acre
planted TO mangles. rutabagas ami
cabbages. The proper way 10 feed these
roots Is 10 use the turnips In the fall
and early winter and keep the man
giles 20 feed from January until spring.
as mangles improve in feeding value
and are less liable 20 cause bowel
trouble after they have fully and thor.
oughly ripened in the cellar or pit. n
roots turn more than 800 pounds OF
dry matter per acre they must be prof
liable: mangles yield from one TO thlr-
teen per cent. dry matter, ruiabagas
nine 20 eleven per cent. All roots
should be valued according 20 The dry
matter they contain. When the Old

perience. roots made his cattle not only
