owls. whose hoot has in II something

WHEY IS OF LITTLE BENEFIT
Cheese Factory Il 10 Usually In
No Condition for Calves.

Whey may be fed to calves success
fully, but even under best conditions
results do not warrant strong recon-
mendation. Where whey is taken back
to the farm from the cheese factory 1t
usually must be fed In fermented or
sour condition and is not fit for calves
Whey contains little larger proper
ton OF fat than is found In skim milk
and little more sugar. but only about
one-fourth as much protein Most Of
the food value of the milk goes into
the cheese.
In feeding whey to calves add a
grain ration that replaces as far as
possible the matter removed In the
cheese. Corn supplements skim milk.
but with whey oil meal is to be pre-
ferred. Mix half pound oil meal to
a gallon OF sweet warm whey and feed
like skim milk.
Where II is necessary to raise the
calf on whey. you had best feed whole
milk until the calf is six weeks old
and then change gradually to whey
Some feeders prefer giving the grain
dry. There are a number of cali
meals on the market, OF which oil
meal or ground fax seed is usually an
important constituent, and these can
be used successfully to supplement
whey and skim milk.

The Algerian soap tree originated
from China and has been propagated
by seeds imported from that country.
The name is given as Sapindus utilis.
The tree is ornamental and reaches a
height OF fifty feet It begins TO bear
fruit when six years old. The wood
is close grained, takes a good polish

ONE OF STAPLE CROPS
Sudan Grass Has Entirely Passed
Experimental Stage.
or Especial Value In Semiarld Regions
on Account Of Its Droueht-Resist-
ant ouslitles--superlor
Catch Crop.

By DAVID b. GARRISON. Robstown'
Sudan grass has now entirely passed
the experimental stage, and has
shown itself worthy of a place among
the great staple crops OF America.
From bulletins issued by the depart
ment OF agriculture OF the United
States and by experiment stations In
various states. the following facts re-
garding Sudan grass may be stated
with authority:
II is the progenitor OF the sorghum
family. In appearance II resembles
Johnson grass, but 1t lacks the root
stalks and therefore. never can become
pest. II Is the equal II not the su-
perior. of all other forage crops In
feeding value. II has a special value
as drought-resistant. II possesses re-
markable vitality. and will grow and
thrive in the face OF the most adverse
circumstances. On dairy farms 1t can
be fed as q substitute for alfalfa, with.
out loss in tonnage. II has been
shown that this method of dairy farm
ing has resulted In better health for
the animals, on account OF the greater
variety of food. II can be grown in
all sections OF the United States. ex-
cepting where the altitude Is very high
or where the climate is exceedingly
humid. II has been experimental with
successfully as far north as Alberta
On account Of its rapid growth 1t prob
ably has no superior as a catch crop.
From seeding to the first crop rs to 80
| days are necessary. The second cut
ting comes on about As days after the
first, and the third is likely to take a
little longer-50 to SO days. In the ex-
treme South as many as four cuttings
a season have been secured. Sudan
grass yields an average Of 300 pounds
of seed TO the acre.
Sudan grass fits we'll into most any
crop rotation or cropping system prac
ticed in this country. Planted In the
spring, 1t produces from two to four
crops and is killed by the first freeze
OF winter. 1t makes intensive farming
an easy possibility where 1t has hith
erto not been practiced. II thus in
creases the possibilities Of this coun
try for large population. II produces
an average of possibly four tons o
hay to the acre.
For this reason our Sudan grass Il
en- ideal crop for the alfalfa-growinl
sections of the United States. T,
sum up, Sudan grass means much Il
the nation. because 1t will augmen
the supply Of live stock and live
stock products; more horses. mule
beef cattle, sheep and goats; NOR
milk and butter. Thus the Lation'
food supply will be increased. working
advantage both to the buyer In tn
city and the seller In the country.
