animal industry started investigations
and experiments in cattle feeding and
a large field force of the bureau was
concentrated to work in the cattle
raising sections. Experts began to
look for substitutes for corn which
would be less costly and at the same
and southwest being the greatest cat
tie producing sections, work was nat
urally centered there, and the largest
experimental station was organized in
Alabama.
Aided by State Officials.
After years OF work in which the
federal government was ably assisted
by state officials, a report Of this sta
ton was submitted to the department
showing the most gratifying results.
Among the facts OF importance demon
strated were, first, the outstanding
value of a ration OF cotton-seed meal
and cotton-seed hulls as a beef max
ing ration in that climate, when fed in
the winter. Second, the small necessity
for shelter for beef cattle, and thirdly,
the great importance Of the use of
pasture for cattle when fed a summer
ration Of cotton-seed cake
1.-The work OF these Investigations
this report said, lis laying the founda-
tion for rational and profitable beef
production under southern conditions
and will grow in influence with the
advance of the boil weevil and the
eradication Of the Texas-fever tick.
With the determination of the tick will
come demand for information on how
to feed cattle profitably, and that de-
mand can be met very largely by the
results OF these Investigations"
The result Of the investigations In
the state of Alabama, which is taken
as typical of the south, shows that the
most profitable substitution for corn
was the feeding of lot of steers on
combinations OF, cotton seed meal, cot
ton-seed hulls and corn silage. During
period of 81 days, the steers gained
on an average of is pounds daily at an
actual cost Of sS.9S for 100 pounds Be
fore the experiment started the steers
cost $3.25 per hundredweight, while at
the end of the test they were shipped
to Louisville and sold for $5.75 per
Each steer netted a
clear profit Of $1.6S.
The experiment conducted to deter
mine the advantage of shelter for cat
tie demonstrated that only six cents
was saved on each hundred pounds of
weight gained.
Another experiment in which steers
were fed on pasture and cotton seed
cake weighing about three and one
half pounds, the lot made a daily
average gain Of 1877 pounds. The cost
tC produce 10 pounds gain in weight
when given pasture and cotton seed
cake amounted to $3.33. This expert
ment showed a clear average profit per
steer Of s7.73.

age.

Washington, Nov. S.-That the beef
cattle shortage which now prevails
throughout the country has n0t reach
ec the crisis. and that 1t will soon take
on the proportions of a famine
unless farmers are educated to breed
irg and raising cattle more economi-
cally and profitably. was the positive
assertion today Of Doctor George NJ.
Rommel, chief Of the animal husbandry
division of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. And Doctor Rom
mel is in a position to know, being in
immediate charge Of Uncle Sans work
in improving the animal industry of
the country, especially in breeding and
feeding livestock.
Many reasons have been assigned
to the present shortage in beef cattle.
which has forced meat prices SO high
that they are almost prohibitive to the
average American" said DR.. Rommel.
but none seems to me to be the sur
mounting cause except failure Of the
farmers to produce the cattle at the
big markets.
There are several reasons for this
depletion of cattle supply, the first and
most deplorable of which is the dis
covery by the farmer that he finds II
much more profitable TO raise corn AMI
other grain on his land to sell In the
markets, rather than use his acres for
pasturage. Others, especially in the
corn belt, find it to their benefit after
raising corn to ship 1t to the markets
rather than use the product as feed for
their own cattle.
Crowd,ne Out Grazing.
"One other reason is that the con-
slant opening UP of homesteads in
the west with their comparatively small
acreages suitable only for truck farm
ing, is slowly but surely crowding out
the extensive grazing pastures
That an inadequate meat supply ex-
lists is not doubted, least of all by the
ultimate consumer, but some idea of
the extent Of the decrease in cattle pro-
ductfon can be obtained from a glimpse
at official statistics on the subject. APP
proXimately 45,000,000 head of cattle
were on the farms in 1910, according
to census bureau figures, while the
1872 records show only about 37,0DO,-
600. In spite of this decrease and the
fact that the industry should naturally
have increased on account of the thou
sands of acres of public lands opened
UP in the past 10 years, figures show
steady decrease each year while the
population of the country increased
about 25 per cent in the last decade.
All of which goes to prove con-
clusiely the urgent need Of adoption of
different methods by the farmers who
would make a success of cattle raising
and thus relieve the stringency of the
meat supply said Doctor Rommel.
'"rhe department of agriculture realiz-
ed some time ago that radical steps
had to be taken to try to prevent all
our farmers abandoning cattle raising
for apparently more profitable pur-
suits. In days gone by, cattle seemed
to thrive only when given to large pas
ture or fed on corn or similar grain.
But this practice soon grew to be i'm
practicable on account of the great de-
mand for corn, with the consequent
result that farmers sought other in
vestments. Thereupon the bureau of

The case is one brought by the Ada

The grand jury believed that he did
