PROFITS FROM CAPONS

There Is no doubt in my mind that

smaller returns for his labor than
those who cater to a different sort of

Gay OF the year. because all branches

These We're capons and all of them

branch Of the poultry badness to go |
into If n can give the time to do it.
AS the large sized capons bring

SOY BEANS AS A MILK FEED
Protein Richness ls One of Qualities
That Recommends II to Stock
Feeder and Dairyman.

One OF the qualities of the soy bean
that commends 1t to the stock feeder
|is its protein richness. The Virginia
experiment station has found that the
seeds, when ground into meal, may be
successfully substituted for equal
amounts Of linseed meal in feeding
dairy cows. The hay is also rich in
protein and this is why 1t Is quite ex-
tensively used In eastern states for
ensiling with corn as this combina.
ton will practically produce a bal
anced ration. A comparison between
an acre each Of green cut flint corn
and soy beans, at the Massachusetts,
station. showed that the beans pro-
duced nearly "a per cent. more protein
than the corn, while the acre OF corr
produced over "a per cent. more of
carbohydrates and fat than the soy
beans.
While corn and soy bean silage con
stitute a balanced ration It is not to
be inferred that grain Is entirely un-
necessary where the silage is fed to
dairy cows. But 1t has been found
possible to reduce the grain ration
considerably under these conditions
and still maintain the milk flow. 40.
cording to Prof. W. A. Henry, silage
made Of corn and soy beans is more
digestible than that made from corn
silage alone.
