hax For steers.

At the Kansas experiment station IA

teuing steers. says Knlsas Farmer. u
was found that when alfalfa hay Was
fed II took only about six pounds o.
corn and cob meal to produce II pound
of gain. while when sorghum was FEC
1t took Ill pounds Of corn and cot
meal to produce pound OF gain. The
figures for the Katlir hay were ten
pounds of the meal for a pound OF
gain. Experiments at other stations
indicate that under similar conditions
Il would take about nine pounds of the
corn and cob meal to make Il pound or
gain when clover and timothy hay were
the roughage. Judging from the ex-
periments. we would place valuation
on sorghum and Kaf1r bay of about
two-thirds as much per ton as we
would on clover and timothy hay mix

~ this much. From personal expert

The commission found as result
of its investigation into the rates
