FATTENING STEERS.
Value of Alfalfa and Cornstall<s ns
Rough Feed,

rt.L. .
A bulletin recently issued by the Ne
braska experiment station gives the
details Of Il feeding experiment with
tw%o-year-old range steers, the results
Of which show very clearly that the
character Of rougLness supplied in con
nection with orn is a very important
factor in the economical production of
beef. Six lots of steers, with ten in
each lot, were fed experimentally for a
period of six months.
Without entering into the details of
the test With two-year-olds, as reported.
the conclusions are tersely stated in
the bulletin as follows:
With present prices for both corn and
beef greater consideration must be Civ
ell to the character and quantity OF
roughncss fed in connection with corn
to ~fattening cattle.
That alfalfa hay is p~ronouncedly SUI
perior to prairie hay for beef produc-
ton and that the more rapid the eX-
tension uf the are Of the land devoted
to the production of alfalfa. supplant-
ing the less valuable and lower yield
ing native hay, the more rapid will be
the production Of wealth from our soil.
That native prairie hay. if for any
reason it is most available for feeding
purposes, should not be fed with corn
alone, but rather with corr supplement-
ed with a small quantity Of some pro-
tein food, such as oilmeal, cottonseed
meal or gluten meal, to give more near
" a balance Of nutrients in. keeping
with animal requirements.
That cornstalks cut Immediately aft
er the ears ripen possess a food value
which cannot consistently be ignored
by the farmer and that existing land
values warrant the larger utilization of
this roughness by the adoption of
methods of harvesting that will make
such material more valuable for feed
ing purposes.
