STRAW UTILIZED IN EUROPE
Made Quite PaIatabe by Mixing With
Beets, MangeIs, SiIage and Other
Forage Crops.

In effect, a recent bulletin of the
United States department of agricul-
ture asks why the American farmer
cannot put straw to the same use as
it is put by the European farmer. In
Europe the farmer knows as well as
the American farmer that straw is Tot
liked by stock, but instead of burning
it, or otherwise wasting it. the Euro
pean farmer chops it up, mixes it with
beets, nangels, Silage or other feeds,
and makes it so palatable that it can
be. fed to good advantage.
The report states that the bureau Of
crop estimates has found that 10 per
cent of the straw produced in the
United States is burned. In many dis
trlcts there are no cattle and remote
ness from suitable market makes the
sale OF the straw improbable. But in
such cases farmers wCuld profit by an
investment i'll Il few cattle.
