From the average analysis of the food
stuffs before me when I prepared the
formula to which you refer, it appears
that the one suggested by me contains
more protein and more digestible fat
than the one mentioned in your letter
It does not, however, contain as much
carbohydrates. IT would be very difficult
to say just what per cent OF crude fibre
1t would contain unless analysis were
made of a sample of the material pre-
pared on the basis of the formula sent
you. OF course, you know that all food
stuffs vary somewhat in composition and
also in digestibility. Climate. sosI and
season influence all crops more or less:
therefore, there is bound to be more or
less variation. do not think it is pos
sible to forecast what the composition
of a given formula will be by analogy.
Ir my Judgment, the formula presented
should provide a feed equal in feeding
value to the one indicated in your letter.
and I see no reason why it should not
be superior in respect to the protein and
fat content.
There is no danger whatever in feeding
cotton seed meal to horses and mules
provided only choice meal goes into the
mixture. We have fed it more or less
for years. and Il Is fed successfully by
cotton seed meal to the ordinary ration
used on the southern plantation will in
sure the animals keeping in a more Wig
orous condition and preserve their use
fitness for a longer period of time. In
other words, the ration ordinarily fed
does not contain enough protein to meet
the requirements of the body waste, and
therefore the animal works under more
or less of a strain since one form of
food cannot be substituted for another in
the animal metabolsm.
GOOD BREEDS OF, DAIRY CATTLE
G. H.. S., Gastonia, N. c., writes:

regarded as a wise and judicious prac-
tice on the part of the farmer.
For cereal crops any oganic source of
nitrogen may be used with advantage
for the season of growth is long, and
nitrogen, as we know, is quickly trans
formed in thel soil into a condition In
which plants can utilize II. 1t is prob
able that the farmer will find cotton
seed meal more desirable as the basis
of the nitrogen supply than anything
else he can use, and the form of fertil-
izer required for cereal crops will en-
able him to use it satisfactorily as the
basis of his formula.
In sowing Iegumes it>is important that
they be fertilized with a formula con-
tanning say to 10 per cent of phos-
phorus and from to per cent of pot
ash. On lands which are thin or where
a cover crop has not been turned under
recently, the use OF a little nitrogen
will be advisable. At least 1 per cent
should be used. and this may properly
be obtained from an organic source.
While it is true that legumes have the
power of assimilating nitrogen from the
air. it is only possible where the soil
has been properly inoculated and the
bacteria which produce the nod
ules on the roots and give the plant the
power to assimilate nitrogen are found
in abundance. II often takes these bac-
terra some time to develop in sufficient
quantity to stimulate the plant, and
therefore. the use of little organic
to insure the rapid germipa-
ton of the seed and the development
of a root system which will sustain the
crop is good practice. OF course, on
some old rich pieces Of ground this
might prove inadvisable, but on. most

HOW THE UNIVERSITY
HELPS ITS CONSTITUENCY

dant residue OF fertilizer left in the soil
after the cultivating and harvesting of
corn, cotton and cowpeas to obviate
the necessity of using additional plant
food. In this they are as a rule mis-
taken. for oCr experience now covering
a considerable period Of years shows
that il has been profitable to fertilize
fall-sDwn cereals quite freely. OF
course, every one should remember that
the best returns from fertilizers come
from soils which have been deeply and
properly prepared to receive the crop,
and which are well supplied with veg
etable matter. These two points can
not be emphasized too strongly, for the
man who expects TO depend on raising
crop without complying with these con-
ditions through the use Of fertilizers
alone is doomed to disappointment.
For fall-sown cereals a good formula
may be prepared by mixing cotton seed
meal. acid phosphate. and some high
grade carrier OF potash such as muriate
in the proportions to insure the prepa-
ration OF a formula, carrying s per cent
OF available phosphorus, % TO 8 per cent
OF available nitrogen, and 4 per cent of
potash. on the extremely sandy soils
of south Georgia, the use Of more phos-
phorus and potash is probably advis-
able On the extra heavy red clay
lands OF north Georgia it is probable
that the nitrogen may be cut down to
per cent and the potash to per cent
with profit on occasions. Economy in
the use OF fertilizers on cereal crops,
however, has been carried TO an ex-
IRENE in most cases. The amount to APP
ply viii vary with the soiT and seasonal
conditions. but from 200 to 400 pounds
may sometimes be applied. The amount
TO use viii depend a good deal on the
nature of the preceding crop and the
soil conditions. Heavier fertilization will
be necessary on thin soils than on heavy
lands. 1t has been the custom to with
hold the use Of much fertilizer TO ce-
reals, and TO tend to stimulate the crop
In the spring by top dressing with nj
trate OF soda. The use Of nitrate of
soda has proven very profitable in many
instances, but nitrate can no take the
place OF phosphorus and potash, nor
nit supply the nitrogen needed to
insure rapid and uniform growth dur
ing the fall and early winter, so that
depending on nitrate alone can not be

bedding for dairy cows, but the best
lis straw from any of the cereals.
When this can not be obtained we
have used sawdust as an absorbent.
Leaves may be used to some advan-
tage, but. as a rule, they do not take
up the liquid quite so readily, and
therefore, the cattle can not be kept
in as sanitary condition as where a
better absorbent is used. We ind it
an advantage to shre6 our corn stalks
in the fall and use the part left by
the cows for bedding purposes.
The breed of cattle to use depends
much on circumstances. The Jerseys
are we'll acclimated and furnish the
larger part of our dairy animals. They
are excellent for cream and butter
production, but do not produce such
a large flow, for instance, as the Hol-
stems. The Holsteins are a hardy
bred. much larger in size than the
Jerseys, and possibly a little more
useful for beef on that account They
are well adapted to the south. Unless
one desires to go into the breeding
of pure-bred animals, a high-grade
herd of mixed Jerseys and Holsteins
would, in our judgment, prove as sat
isfactory as any class of animals you
could hope to keep,
The best feed for dairy cows is good
grass in the summer, supplemented by
soiling crops if the season is dry
For soiling purposes you may use any
of the legumes with corn or sorghum
We have found a combination of cow
peas and sorghum very excellent for
this purpose. We have also used the
velvet bean with advantage. For win
ter feeding there is nothing equal to
silage. You should prepare to put in
considerable area of corn and sor-
ghum for this purposeI next year and
build a silo. AS you have not silo
this year you may have to depend
largely on cotton seed meal and hulls.
AS much as five pounds of cotton
seed meal may be fed to 1,000-pound
COW. If fed in the proportion of fifteen
to twenty pounds of hulls to five
pounds of meal good results may be
anticipated. A cement floor is desirable
in dairy stable as it is almost impos-
sible to keep it in a sanitary condi-
ton otherwise.
As your BUSINESS develops you will
no doubt find many other questions
about which you desire Information and
advice, and we shall be pleased to help
you whenever possible
