fcre their true value can be known.

Cost Divided.
The original cost of the five bulls
and their annual cost of maintenance
are usually Divided among the men,
bers of the association according to
the number of cows owned by each.
Records on file In the dairy division
of the department show that the MEM
bers of associations now organized
are getting the services of these high
class purebred bulls at an average cost
considerably less than they formerly
paid for the services of scrub bulls or
registered bulls of doubtful merit.
Many farmers in Maryland, Michigan
and Minnesota, when questioned re-
garding the value of cooperative bull
associations, estimated that the use of
sires belonging to the association in
creased the value of the offspring in
the first generation from 80 to so per
cent. The average of these estimates
was 60 per cent.
The educational work of each asso-
ciation makes the members alert to
prevent the introduction and spread
of disease of any kind. The we'll
managed bull association requires that

1t is greatly to the advantage of a
cooperative association that it be in
corporated under state laws. This IA
cilitates the transaction of business,
equitably distributes responsibility,
and gives the organization greater
prestige in the community.
Cooperative bull associations have
been common in Denmark for many
years, but the first associations of the
kind in the United States We're organ
lied in 1908 by the Michigan agricul-
tural college. In this country their
growth has not been rapid, but, as a
rule, they have been highly success
full. If skillfully managed. they may
be made great factor in the upbuild-
ing of profitable dairying in this coun-
try.

EXTRA FEEDING AND

Ohio Expert Gives Conclusions
Reached After Experimenting
With Station Herd.

"Heavier feeding ard extra care of
cows will pay in more than half the
dairy herds of Ohio" says C. G. Hay
den of the Ohio experiment station,
in its Monthly Bulletin. His conclu.
sions are based on Investigations with
cows In the station dairy herd.
One COW given extra feed and care
produced so per cent more milk and
67 per cent more butterfat than in
previous years. This increase was pro-
duced at n cents less per 100 pounds
of milk and % cents less per pound.
of butterfat. Another COW gave Z per
cent more milk and so per cent more
butterfat than in former years. Her
increase cost 81 cents less per 100
pounds of milk and 15 cents less per
pound of butterfat.
The lower costs arc due to the fact
that little extra time In feeding and
caring for the animals is needed, and
no more stable room nor equipment Is
required for large Yields than for small
ones.

form may consist of three farmers who

farmer keeps one of these bulls for
two years, at the end of which time

FAVOR ALFALFA FOR
HORSES OF ANY KIND
To Be Fed Successfully, Crop
Must Be Cut at Proper Time
Feed as Concentrate.
CBy c. W. TCAMPBELL, Kansas State
Agricultural College)

(By C. W. TCAMPBELL, Kansas State
Agricultural College)
If alfalfa hay is properly cured, 1t
NAV be fed to any kind of horses.
This applies just as strongly to work
horses as to growing horses. In or
der, however, to be fed successfully,
alfalfa hay must be cut at the proper
time for horse feeding purposes, and
must be fed as concentrate rather
than as a roughage.
The trouble which arises from feed
ing alfalfa is due to the method OF
feeding, not with the alfalfa hay. 1t
has been said that the proper time to
begin cutting alfalfa hay is when the
field is about one-tenth in bloom. Cut
ting at such time makes very good
hay for cattle, but such hay Is too
"washy" for horses at hard work. 10
make hay suitable for horses at hard
work, the alfalfa must be allowed to
get rather mature before cutting; in
fact. the field should be in full bloom
before the mower is started. The hay
should then be properly cured and
stacked. Special care must be taken
to prevent spelling or molding.
After the hay has been cured the
next consideration is the amount to
be fed. The important cause of so
much trouble with alfalfa hay has
been overfeeding. One pound of al
falfa hay contains 80 per cent more
digestibIe protein than pone pound of
shelled cortland is fairly rich In car
bohydrates and fat. A person would
not think of feeding 1,2oo-pound
work horse bushel Of shelled corn In
a day, yet by giving the same horse al
the alfalfa hay he will eat, as large
or a larger amount of digestible pro-
teIu will be fed. When large amounts
Of alfalfa are fed, the horse receives
The Elbert County tribune., 1916-12-29

an excessive amount of highly nitro
genous material.
Another effect of overfeeding with
alfalfa is a sort Of clogging of the
whole system, resulting in impaired
nutrition, filling of the legs and hooks,
softness, excessive sweating, and i'm.
paired respiration. AS to the amount
to be fed, experience seems to indi.
cate that one and one-fifth pounds to
100 pounds of live weight is about
the maximum amount for work
horses.
Because of its high proportion of d.
gestible protein, alfalfa balances up
very well with corn. These two feeds
make the most economical ration the
Kansas farmer can feed.
