Frozen alfalfa may kill a hog as

II ever the rams needed a little ex-

A thorough wetting in q cold rain

II you allow the young stock to

A hog needs twice the air space in

PROFIT IN STEER FEEDING
Experiments Made by Pennsylvania
Station Show Gains Made During
Period Of Six Months.

The results secured by the Penn
sylyania experiment station from the
experimental work Of the winter Of
1909-10 indicate that ~ the most
economical ration for fattening steers
in Pennsylvania is one composed
largely OF roughage, with a limited
amount of concentrates; (2) the local
demand for beef is such that the cat.
tie should not be carried to too high
a degree Of finish; (3) increasing the
proportions of corn silage In ration
for fattening steers increases the
profits and gains from feeding; ~
protection from cold is as neces-
sary for fattening cattle on succulent
feeds as when dry feeds are used.
Steer feeding was a profitable ven.
ture in Pennsylvania under conditions
prevailing at the experiment station
from December Is, 1909, to May 8,
1910, the average price received for
corn fed to experimental cattle being
$1.O5 per bushel. The margin neces-
sary between buying and selling
prices to prevent loss from fattening
cattle on bulky ration was 1923 per
hundredweight, and on concentrated
ration $1.GS per hundredweight. The
difference in margin necessary for
feeding in the shelter experiment was
17.2 cents per hundredweight in favor
Of outdoor feeding.

the center of the pen. The small
pigs can run under this protection and
keep the mother from lying upon
them. Supply plenty Of straw for bed
ding. especially at narrowing time.
The necessity of tho careful feeding
Of the SOW before narrowing time
SHOULD be- apparent to every farmer,
for 1t is impossible to obtain good
pigs from a weak, improperly fed. neg
lected mother.
Pastures are the basis for the prof
table handling Of pigs. The pigs
should be gotten up to weaving time
as cheaply as possible, and the cheap
est way to do this Is to have pasture
for the sows to run upon every month
In the year that is possible. In the
south 1t Is very little trouble to have
pastures practically the year around,
but in the northern states more
months Of grain feeding are necessary.
OF course, the SOW should be provided
with some grain in addition to the pas
ture, but the pastures will save great
amount Of grain. It must be remem-
bered that the SOW must be nourished
In such a way that the pigs will come
into the world strong and healthy.
Corn alone will not keep the SOW in
a good, healthy condition, but corn,
along with a good leguminous pasture,
will provide her with q good ration.
When pastures are not available, such
feeds as skim milk and BRAN should
be used along with the corn. Not
more than one-half Of her ration
should ever be made up of corn; the
other half should be made up Of
feed that will furnish plenty Of ash and
protein.
Leguminous pastures are the cheap
est feeds that can be found to go
along Nth the corn. With a good
leguminous pasture the SOW win be
maintained In good flesh when she 10
fed a ration of corn equivalent to one
per cent. Of her life weight For q
200-pound SOW this would be two
pounds Of corn daily. When no pas
ture Is provided, It requires from six
to seven pounds Of grain to maintain
2OO-pOund SOW in proper condition.

own shelter, to be in keeping with

The house may be made on runners to

Feeding Corn.

Corn should be fed with judgment
Old corn is better than new, and there
Is a loss in the crib while waiting for
prices to go up. as corn dries some
the older it gets. Corn that is smutty
or moldy should not be put in the crib,
as It is injurious to all kinds of stock,
producing a disease styled by some
the stomach staggers." II smutty
corn is placed in the crib with sound
corn, there is a possibility Of the
sound corn being affected. The same
rule applies to corn fodder; use only
that which is clean and free from
blemish. When cattle refuse certain
kinds of corn fodder the chances are
that there is something wrong with 1t.
