murdered by the thugs who were

Ames, March S-The animal hus-
bandry department at the Iowa State
College last week shipped to Chicago
a consignment OF thirty four head OF
yearling steers, for which good re-
turns were received The shipment
consisted of Hereford steers--thirty-
two of them grades and two OF them
pure breds, When put on the market
they were divided into two lots. The
heavy end consisted of eighteen head
and averaged 1851 pounds each and
sold for $3.50 per hundred The re-
naming sixteen head averaged 1,0S2M
pounds each and sold for $6.25. 1t Is
said that this is the highest price that
has been paid for Hereford yearlings
since the 10Th of January The college
received this lot Of calves q little more
than a year ago from the Matador
Land and Cattle Company, of Texas,
being but eight months of age at that
time.
The methods used in fitting this lot
OF young stock for the market by the
department at the college is most In
teresting. and II followed out by stock
ralsers may be Of much value. When
the calves were received at the college
they were very small and appeared to
be of undersze. They were immed-
ately turned into comfortable yards.
with open sheds close by. and given
their first feed. which consisted Of a
small amount Of hay and mangles.
Good fresh water was provided and
special pains were taken to keep the
calves very quiet For the time being
they were fed on mixed hay, small
amount OF roots and a very small feed
of grain OF the latter, they were Civ
en- about twenty pounds of bran. UP
to December 81 their first feed was
gradually increased, when they were
allowed to receive 90 pounds mixed
pounds OF roots. As pounds OF corn and
cob meal. and % pounds bran. The
days before they were Civ
en- three full feeds with alfalfa hay or
ruffage. On December 81 the thirty
four calves were found to weigh on an
average of 407 pounds. From January
1 until May 4, 1905. the calves were
kept In the open lots, still having ac-
cess to the open sheds, and were fed
on corn and cob meal bran and some
gluten food and oil meal On May 4
they were turned out to pasture and
kept there until october 1, being given
a grain ration OF corn and little seed
meal The grain ration was light and
did not at any time exceed twelve
pounds of corn. On July the calves
We're weighed and found to average nj
pounds. From october to the time
of marketing the calves we're In a dry
lot and fed on corn, clover hay, cotton
seed meal. but in the last three weeks
oil meal was substituted for the cotton
seed meal.
One Of the pure bred Herefords made
a remarkable gain Of 139 pounds in
thirty days. which ie said to be rec
ord breaker for yearling. The de-
partment is well pleased with the re-
suit OF the feeding experiment, as the
bunch when placed on the market
brought the top price, and Melted the
station a good profit.
