GOOD PROFITS FROM STEERS
Most Remarkable Results Secured az
lows Station With Five Different
Lots Of Animals.

At the Iowa station. during the last
season, most remarkable results were
secured with iive different lots of ex.
perimental steers. The best paying
LOT made profit Of s23.46 per head.
This lot received 146 pounds per
head daily OF shelled corn, three
pounds cottonseed meal and 2s.e
pounds silage. Other lots were fed
IN comparison, receiving varying
amounts OF the same feeds, and some
were fed clover hay In addition, but
the lot which received a ration In
which the bulky part was silage and
the concentrates consisted OF shelled
corn and cottonseed meal, was the lot
that turned on the most clean money.
No station has done as much ex-
perlmental feeding with silage ration
as the Indiana station az Purdue.
Many years OF continuous records are
available at this station, and In no
instance, from the standpoints OF
gains and profits, does any ration com.
pare with those IN which silage con-
stitutes an important feature. Last
year 70 head were fed In lots of ten
each The lot receiving siIage, oats
straw and cottonseed neal during the
first go days. and corn, cottonseed
meal, silage and clover hay during the
remainder Of the period, made the
cheapest gains. but not the greatest.
Disregarding the pork produced Incl
dentally the lot fed on corn. cotton.
seed meal and siIage made a profit
Of s20.96 per head.
The Illinois station has several
years OF experimental data which
correspond closely to that already Civ
en-, and It is generally entirely favor
able TO the use OF siiage in the beef
ration. Illinois also found that for a
maintenance ration for breeding beef
COWS. silage is a most desirable and
economical feed. II cost 40 cents per
day per head TO maintain 140 days a
lot OF cows fed on siIage, clover hay
and oats straw; 4.6 cents per day
TO maintain a lot fed on shock corn,
clover hay and oats straw and 81
cents day to maintain lot fed on

LAYING OUT A GARDEN
ERRONEOUS IDEA THAT MUCH
TIME IS REQUIRED.
Plot $50 BY 100 Feet win Produce
Enough Fruit and Vegetables for
Family Of Six-Run the Rows
North and South.
tBy e. PARKER)

There Is an important economical
side to this question Of a garden
Beef, for instance, in its various forms
is notoriously expensive, especially
where II is eaten twice OF three times
day, whereas beans, peas, spinach.
etc, when served with meat would
make up half the amount eaten. thus
reducing the cash cost OF the whole.
And the impression that vegetable
garden requires much time and care
is such an erroneous onel Two or
three hours week will suffice for a
garden $50 by 100 feet. which Is cap
able OF producing fruit and vegetables
enough for a family of six, provided
the rows are three feet apart so that
a horse may be used
In laying out such a garden the
rows should be run north and south.
for planted thus vegetables receive
the greatest amount Of sun The first
four rows should be six feet apart, and
the FIST Of these might contain twelve
currant and twelve gooseberry bushes

place The third row will be for
strawberries and will hold $50 plants

next thirteen rows viii be three feet

MUSHROOM IN DEMAND
GOOD PRICE MAKES CULTIVATION
WORTH CONSIDERING.
Exercise Great Care In Making First
Bed, Using Horse Manure, With
a Small Proportion Of Long,
strawy Litter.

C5y T. KNBELAND. Agriculturist. Cory
right, 1914)
The great demand for mushrooms is
not only constant, but far below the
supply, and as they sell for from 20 to
so cents per pound their cultivation is
worth considering.
Any one who has a bit OF space in
the cellar where the temperature can
be kept at 81 degrees Fahrenheit can
easily raise mushrooms. Make a first
bed on the ground In a semi-dark cor
ner, using great care in the selection
of material to be used for the bed.
Use horse manure, composed largely
OF short manure, with small proper
tion Of long, strawy litter, adding loam
OF rich soil at the rate of one bushel
Of soil to four or FIVE bushels of ma
nure. This mixture should be pre-
pared by stacking. turning, shaking
and restocking every three or four
days until it is in condition for pre-
pairing the bed. These operations per
nit Of the escape Of noxious gases and
prevent burning. Keep moist, but not
too wet and In about two weeks the
material will be ready for use. The
bed should be IL to IA inches thick
1.-TWO to three feet wide, and long as
desired) after being thoroughly pound
ed down so as to become firm.
level and compact, and then cover
with long straw. If the material is
in proper shape the mercury in the
thermometer (Which comes expressly
for this work. will rise to 100 degrees
or more, then slowly fall.
When 80 degrees is reached time
for planting the spawn has come II
English mushroom spawn is used
break IL into pieces two inches square
and plant nine inches apart each way
and two inches deep. Be sure to firm
the manure over the spawn, and
after the spawn has been planted a
week or ten days It should begin run
ming" then spread a coat Of rich,
loamy soil an inch thick over the bed,
the surface being made smooth and
firm; cover 1t with litter and keep the
temperature at 81 degrees Fahrenheit.
The bed should be kept covered until
exhausted. Many failures are caused
by overwatering. While mushrooms
thrive best in a soil which will not
crack, but, kept moist enough to press
together nicely, still it should not be
wet. On the other hand, il allowed
to become too dry the bed becomes ex-
hausted before the crop is harvested
Always use lukewarn water. The
mushrooms should appear in six or
eight weeks unless there is some de-
feet in material, temperature or moist
ure, in which case they may remain
barren for two or three months and
then turn out excellent crops.
