other hand the practical feeder rarely
ii ever produces them. This accounts
for the fact that there are S many In
ferior and common cattle produced IN
the state, as the man who finally mar
kets them as rule is not the man
who produces them and hence is not
interested in the cost of products. but
only in the profits from feeding. II
improved beef is to be produced on
land in the state of Indiana that is to-
day worth from $75 to $50 per acre,
1t will be necessary to use better meth
DDS and to produce better grade of
| cattle, as the scrub steer has no place
on the high priced land. The particu-
| lar phase of cattle feeding that should
! be followed by any one man will
depend solely upon the adaptability of
| his farm for the purpose. If he has
large amount of rough waste land
which is unsuitable for the pillow and
must of necessity be kept in grass then
he can afford to produce feeders.
