der exactly similar conditions, the diff
ference of SO bushels to the acre must
have been due entirely to differences
in the yielding ability of the seed.
At 40 cents bushel this difference
of Sc bushels per acre meant a diff
ference of s14.40 per acre in profits.
A bushel of seed will plant approx
mately seven acres. An additional
profit of $1440 per acre on seven
acres would amount to $1008O.
These samples, remember, were ex-
actly the same kind of corn that
these different men were planting in
their own fields. The men who plant
ed corn like the five poorest samples
could have paid 500 bushel for
corn like that planted by the other
five men. They could have done this
and still have been so cents to the
good on each bushel.

AVOID PATENT STOCK FOODS
Experiments Show That They Are a
Damage Rather Than
Beneiit.

Everyone who owns horse or a
COW or a pig is more or less familiar
with the claims of the sellers of the
various kinds of indicated stock
foods These foods come at high
rates, usually from 5000 to $500 n ton.
This excessive price is made up by
the smallness of the dose advised.
This varies from two to six table
spoons day, certainly not enough to
be of much value as food. The
manufacturers do not claim so much
for the actual food value of the stock
foods; but lay more stress on their
tonic and medicinal value. Accord
ing to the advertisements, few doses
of stock food will cure almost any i'll
Not only that, they will stimulate d.
gestion and make given quantity of
feed go much further. The stock
foods, it is claimed, will make a COW
give more milk, make horse go fas-
ter, and make pig lay on more fat.
A number of the experiment sta
lions have from time to time. inyes-
tigated these extravagant claims of
the stock food manufacturers Chemi-
cal analyses show that the foundation
for most of the stock foods is some
feeding stuff, such as oil meal or
bran. Sometimes, however, even this
is lacking, the bulk being given by

ture is supplied by salt, sulphur, char

whatever, is usually present in con-
siderable quantities. The most i'm
portant of the drugs used in the stock
foods is gentian. The dose Of this
drug is one ounce for horse and two
ounces for COW. In giving the stock
a tablespoonful of stock food which
contains two per cent. of gentian, the
feeder is giving $50 to HOO part of
a dose. Obviously, no great good
could come from this, even If the ami
mails were in need of that particular
drug.
Obviously, the claims Of the manu-.

SEED CORN WORTH 500 BUSHEL
PRODUCED IN MILLS COUNTY
Striking Results Of Extension Department Experiments Too
Late to Test Corn for Coming Seasons Crop-Bquest
Money Making Proposition Ever Before Farmers

One dollar an ear is more than
most farmers would want to pay for
seed corn, yet, the results of expert
ments in Mills county show that good
seed corn may be valued that high.
Sixty-seven samples of the seed corn
that the farmers of Mills county were
planting in their fields were gathered
and planted in plots on the county
farm. They were planted on the same
kind of soil and handled as nearly
alike as possible.
The chart shows the five highest
yielding and the five lowest yielding
of these samples. The five best sam
pies averaged 81 bushels per acre,
while the five poorest averaged only

slo.7l per hundred pounds. In the
lot which received stock food in addi-
tlon to corn the cost per hundred
pounds of gain was $13.41. In this
case the use of stock food increased
the cost of gains "a per cent. In a
similar experiment with another
brand OF stock food the cost of gains
was increased eleven per cent.
At the Massachusetts Hatch ex-
pertinent station the use of stock food
increased the cost of producing hun
dred pounds of milk 1O2 per cent
and the cost of producing a pound of
butter 10 per cent. At the Kansas
experiment station the cost of pro
duclng a pound of butter fat when no
stock food was fed was 1913 cents
Adding stock food to the ration in
creased the cost to 146 cents. The
cost of butter fat production was in
creased 1871 per cent. by the use of
STOCK food. In a similar trial with
another stock food, the increased cost
OF butter fat production was 6.3 per
cent
AT the Indiana experiment station
the use of stock food increased the
cost of pork production 1853 per cent.
An experiment at the Iowa station
showed that no beneficial results were
obtained by feeding stock foods to
swine.
Ihese experiments go to show that
STOCK foods are damage rather than
benefit to stock. They return about
800 per cent. profit to the manufac-
turer, which explains the large
amount of money spent on adyertis-
