FEEDING DRIED BEET PULP.

[ would like to have you give me
some Information about the feeding
of dried beet pulp to dairy COWS.
What does it cost? What is the an
alysis of it? How is it fed, with the
grain or by itself? Do you consider
it of much advantage when one hash t
any silage? | am feeding ration of
alfalfa hay with a grain mixture of
three parts corn chop, two parts bran
and one part old process linseed oil
meal. Would you advise adding
dried beet pulp? R. O. G. Spring
field, Mo.
Dried beet pulp has about the same
feeding value as corn, practically
speaking. 1t is somewhat different
in it's physical properties and often
works into the ration to a much bet
ter advantage than corn. In the alb
sence of succulent feed we prefer
dried beet pulp to corn for it may be
moistened with water, using about
three pounds to each pound of pulp.
There are some discrepancies in the
analysis of dried beet pulp. according
to information we have, it contains
from to per cent digestible pro
tein and about 65 per cent di
gestible carbohydrates and practical
ly no fat.
The price of dried beet pulp varies
according to the locality, or, in other
words, the distance it must be ship
ped 1t is a feed that supplements
alfalfa hay we'll and can be recon-
mended if the prices of dairy prod
ucts and the pulp are such to make
it profitable TIC feed.
Cows will do better when fed pulp
with alfalfa than when given nothing
but alfalfa hay. We would be in
clined, if the prices we're the same,
to substitute the dried beet pulp for
corn chop, or use both the corn chop
and the pulp and omit the linseed oil
meal. In the absence OF dried beet
pulp little oil meal is desirable,
especially when animals are receiving
no succulent feed. 1t would be we'll
to provide each animal with three or
four pounds of the dried beet pulp
daily; that is, animals giving more
than Is pounds of milk daily. Ami
mails giving less would probably re-
quire no other feed than alfalfa hay.

81 HOLSTEINS SELL FOR S37.O15.

NORTH YAKIMA, Nov. o.
Eighty -one registered Holsteins, sold
at public auction yesterday afternoon
at Granger by III. @. Davis OF Granger
and f. B. Marks, of North Yakima,
brought S37, O15, an average of $457.
The sale is claimed to establish a
record for prices for a herd in this
country and perhaps for the world.
The COWS offered by Davis averaged
S526. "a. For Maldeta Canary Mer-
cedes, e. B. Marks paid 81, 300, and
for King of the Pontiacs Sanesta
Topsy, Calvin Philips, of Greenbank,
bidding through DR.. Guy Richards,
paid 81, IT'S. When these animals top
ped the 81, 900 mark in the bidding
and again when they were sold the
crowd, 400 or 500 strong, went to its
feet cheering.
Frank Hatch came all the way from
at 81, 600, and he bid $3.50 above that
limit before he stopped. The Green
bank people declared afterward they
were pepared to pay 50, 500 for her.
The auction was conducted by II.
M. Hastings, of Tacoma, N. Y, who
declared that the sale was the largest
the nation has ever known and the
average price higher than ever paid
for large lot of thoroughbred cattle.
Calves sold at good figures. One of
them, only four days old, brought SIS
after its mother had sold for 1915.
Another bull calf went for 5000 and
his mother brought 1926. The calf
went to Herman Mckenzie, of Silver
ton, Oregon.

green feed to good advantage. In
choosing the grain you should have
in mind the roughage and the succul-
ence that you are feeding and try to
mix the grain in such a way as to
make the ration balance. Dat hay is
fairly high in carbohydrates, and II
you feed beet pulp you will find 1T
also high in carbohydrates your grain
ration. therefore, should be rather
high in protein. I would suggest
that you mix two parts of bran, two
parts of oats and one part of oil meal,
and feed this in the proportion OF
one pound of the mixture to three or
three and one-half pounds of milk.
When you change to clover and
timothy it will not be necessary to
feed as heavy on the oil meal, and
you can cut it down to two parts OF
bran to two parts of oats and one-half
part of oil meal.
The feeds high in carbohydrates
such as corn, barley, corn silage, oats
and oat hay are usually considered
good for fattening stock, and on the
other hand those high in protein are
considere milk producing feeds, yet
we find that in making a balanced
ration for either dairy or beef
animal we must mix the feeds so as
to have some of each, leaning little
towards the high protein feeds IN the
case of milk producing rations. AS
to the feeding of salt, will state that
it is necessary that the COW gets some
salt each day, and if you feed it in
the grain ration you should be care
full that she does not get too much.
Our plan is to drop a few pinches OF
salt into the grain and in addition
have a box full outside where they
can get to it at will.
The samples of bran which you
sent have been received. 1t is i'm
possible for us 20 determine the feed
ing value unless we actually make

feeding test. From the standpoint
of total nutrients the sample contain
ing the most amount of -four or
shorts would be the better, but when
we use bran we usually feed it for
the laxative properties and also for
the protein it contains perhaps. and
therefore I would say that the light
sample would be the better.
