Russla's Struggle to Reach Mediter

Russia's Struggle to Reach Mediter
ranean Involves American Grain.
In the current issue OF Farm and
Fireside. the National farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, Herbert
Quick, editor OF that publication.
writes as follows. explaining why
American farmers have a direct
financial interest in Russia's struggle
to get to the Mediterranean:
"As this is written. the greatest
battle which ever took place between
warships and shore forihcations is be.
ing fought in the narrow waterway
from the Black Sea to the waters OF
the Mediterranean.
1T is a battle for wheat. Its out.
come will affect the price Of every
bushel OF wheat and other grains now
held in the United States. and every
bushel harvested next season.
"a glance at the map OF Europe
shows that this must be so. Russia
is a great wheat.growing country.
There Is now on hand there a huge
supply OF wheat which cannot get to
market-from 125,OOO,OOO to 175.OOO,.
900 bushels.
1T cannot get to market because
Germany controls the waters and rail
ways leading westward from Russia.
Russia will not sell to Germany or
Austria because she is at war with
them.
The Black Sea is Russia's outlet.
and Turkey controls the Bosphorus,
the little Sea Of Marmora and the
Dardanelles, that ancient waterway
between the East and the West for
which battles have been fought for
thousands OF years.
Wheat has gone of several cents
bushel because the allies have
smashed the forts at the entrance OF
the Dardanelles. The American farm.
er's pocketbook is vitality affected be-
cause England has built a great ship,
the Queen Elizabeth, which brushes
forts as did the German siege guns
in Belgium. And yet there are those
who say that the United States can
keep out Of entanglements in world
politics! 90
THE map Of the world is changing.
History is turning as on a pivot in
this war. And We as farmers will
find the price of feed and the rewards
of our labor changing with the map
and the course of history"

WHAT HOGS OF THE
FUTURE WILL EAT

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireslde, the National farm paper
published at Springfield. Ohio, a con.
tributor tells the story OF Spanish
peanuts, which are being used increas.
ingly as food for hogs. The claim is
made that by their use hogs can be
fattened at cost OF three cents a
pound. Following is an extract from
the article:
"The Spanish peanut, because Of
its higher content OF OIL and hence
grearter fattening qualities than the
Virginia peanut stands in a class
alone as a livestock feed.
Those who have studied the cues.
tion are Of the opinion that the Span.
ish peanut will soon become the chief
feed for hogs and other livestock in
the Southern and Southwestern

PRODUCTIVE VALUE A FACTOR
IN SELECTING FEEDS
By ]. w. CHoWNING,

By ]. w. CHoWNING,
Assistant Chemist, Texas Experiment
Station at the A. & NJ. College.
By the term productive value" Of
feed is meant the amount of fat a
given amount of feed will produce
when fed in addition to mainte.
nance ration, /. e. when the feed is
added to ration which maintains the
animal without loss of fat. This pro-
duotive value is limited by the total
quantity of digestive nutrients-di.
gestible protein, ether extract, crude
fiber and nitrogen free extract
which the feed contains, but II has
been found that the productive value
Of these several nutrients is not the
same for all feeds. With finely
ground concentrated feeds it does not
vary wide, but when these are com.
pared with roughages it varies a great
deal

States adapted TO their cultivation.
Five years ago Spanish peanuts
we're almost unknown as livestock
feed in the Southwest, but today they
are among the most valued crops In
that section. Texas annually raises
a crop worth about 100000, grown
on 100000 acres. Oklahoma two years
ago had approximately $4,000 acres,
but the yield was cut down by the
unlocked for rainy fall which started
the matured nuts to sprout in the
ground before harvest, and on the
vines after stacking This proved
heavy blow TO the Oklahoma peanut
industry because the high price OF
seed last year prevented a representa-.
tive acreage being planted.
"The indications for 1915 are that
Oklahoma will plant close to 100000
acres OF Spanish peanuts.
"A test made under the United
States Department of Agriculture in
Southern Arkansas three years ago
resulted in the production of 500
pounds Of pork of one acre of Spanish
peanuts. the hogs harvesting the
crops.
while such results are exception
al, I know hog raisers who yearly
connt on fattening herd of fifty or
sixty hogs on ten acres of Spanish
peanuts, the animals making a net
gain of 100 TO 125 pounds of pork in
FIVE or six weeks. Such results
through Oklahoma. Arkansas and
Texas are not uncommon in the hands
OF skilled feeders"

Results OF number of experiments
have shown that some concentrated
feeding stuffs have full productive
value" When these are fed in add
ton TO the maintenance ration they
produce approximately the theoretl
cal gain in fat
Digestion experiments show what
amount Of the different nutrients OF
feed are digested by the animal. A
large number OF these have been
made, so that we know fairly well
what percentage OF the nutrients. OF
an ordinary feeding stuff, we may ex.
pect the animal to digest. From this
knowledge, with such feeds as DOS.
sess full productive value" II is a
simple matter to calculate the gain
an animal should make on a given
quantity OF feed. But II is only the
ilnely ground grains and oil cake
meals, free from husks and bulls.
which possess this "full' or theoretI.
cal value. Since these are nearly al.
ways fed In varying combinations
with other feeds, II may become a
difficult matter to ascertain the
amount of fat gfSsa combination
should produce.
High content OF crude fiber in a
feed usually indicates low produc.
tive value. Hays and folders, which
are characterized by their high con.
tent OF crude FIBER have a productive
value from 30 per cent to so per cent
lower than II would If their digestlble
nutrients were OF full value.
A careful consideration OF the va.
Ration In productive values of diff.
ferent feeds Will show that Il is OF
Importance In selecting feed for a
fattening animal. In order to secure
the most economical gain the animal
must be fattened rapidly II can
readily be seen that the productive
value OF the feed given will limit the
amount OF Eat the animal gains for a
given length OF time, since the amount
OF feed the animal can handle is
limited.
Bulletin 40 OF the Texas expert.
ment station gives the average com.
position of Texas feeding stuffs to.
gether with table OF productive
values, directions for calculating ra.
tons OF a desired productive value,
explanation Of feeding terms. etc. It
is worthy OF the careful study Of
those feeding live animals for profit.
