COMBINATION OF CORN
PLANT AND ALFALFA
Largest and Most Profitable
Gains Made on Cattle Tested
at Nebraska Station.

A combination of alfalfa hay and
corn plant gave the largest and most
profitable gains on cattle tested at
the University of Nebraska. Corn was
fed both In the form of silage and stO-
yer, and Of these, silage was superior.
The cattle were fed In groups Of
eight steer calves, each for 20 weeks.
Each animal Of one group received
tx pounds Of corn, four pounds al
falfa and 31s pounds shredded corn
slower daily. The other group were
fed six pounds corn, 3h pounds alfalfa
and Is pounds silage.
The silage-fed calves averaged 18
pounds gain daily per head, or about
one-third of a pound more than the
stover-fed steers. They required only
"a pounds grain per 100 pounds of
gain made instead of five pounds, as
In the case of the stover-fed animals.
Valuing corn at As cents bushel,
alfalfa at So ton, shredded slower
and silage at So a ton each. the silage
ration made 100 pounds gain at cost
Of $4.66, the profit per steer during the
20 weeks being $5.SS. With the sto-
yer ration, 100 pounds gain cost $5.4s
the profit being only $1.31 per steer

and pulverized to the depth indicated
as necessary by the kind of soil and
the crop to be grown; and the stubble
and rubbish are completely turned un-
der where it will be out Of the way
and quickly decomposed. For most
crops, deep, rather than shallow plow-
ing, is the best practice.
To do good work with a minimum Of
power, plows must be equipped with
properly shaped and sharpened shares.
A good share allows pillow to run
true and little or no effort is neces-
sary to hold it in place.
To turn under all rubbish good
jointer properly adjusted is necessary.
No stubble or weeds are left sticking
up between the burrows where good
jointer is used.
Keep the plowshare property shaped
and sharpened. Use jointer so that
all rubbish is turned under completely.
Increase the depth of blowing an inch
or two each year for several seasons.

BRIGHT FUTURE FOR
FIRST-CLASS STOCK
Majority Of All Breeders Now Use
Purebred Sires, Says Kan
sas Authority.

A bright future for purebred live
stock is predicted by Edward N.
Wentworth, professor of animal
breeding in the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college.
'The use Of grade sires is gradually
decreasing" said Professor Went
worth. Seventy per cent of the horse
breeders, 65 per cent of the sheep
breeders, 60 per cent Of the cattle
breeders, and 80 per cent of the swine
breeders use purebred sires.
''From s to 10 per cent of the hogs
are purebred. approximately PA per
cent each of beef and dairy cattle, 2
per cent of draft horses, 8 per cent Of
light horses, and from IN to 2 per cent
of sheep.
"These proportions may be those
actually required to furnish the bulk
of breeders with purebred sires, al
though 1t is probable that there should
be from to 8 per cent of purebreds
in order to supply one purebred for
every 80 grade females, to maintain
purebred herds, and to permit rigid
selection of breeding animals.
"The present proportion Of pure.
breds seems to be sufficient in order to
supply the present users of purebreds,
but not so rigid selection can be
practiced as might be desired. The
fact that probably all breeders will
ultimately use purebred sires will
allow doubling in the percentage OF
purebred cattle, an increase Of two
thirds in the number of hogs, slightly
more than one-half In sheep, and one
third in the number of horses, without
increasing the severity of selection.
"Such an expansion will afford q
prosperous future for purebred live
stock even though the standards Of
selection are not raised. Since. how
ever, standards of selection are being
continually raised, an even higher per
centage of purebreds may be ex
pected."

DESTROY WEEDS WITHOUT COST TO FARMER

moved and As dry ewes placed in the
fnclosure the first week in July. In
two weeks time the sheep had enten
almost every leaf Of paintbrush in
sight. They seemed to prefer the paint.
brush leaves to anything else; at any
rate, they would search out isolated
plants In the grass, and the patches
which were covered with paintbrush
are now almost bare. The cleanest
field In the Morgan horse farm is the
one which has been used as sheep
pasture for several years, and which,
when the farm was bought, was as
badly infested with weeds as any.
Pay for Their Keep.
This experience indicates that even
If wool and meat only meet expenses,
flock of sheep can be kept for the
labor saved in keeping the farm clear
of weeds. 1t Is doubtful, says the de-
partment. whether any other farm ami
NAL has so wide a field Of usefulness
as the sheep when intelligently
handled. Sheep produce meat at a
less cost of grain than any other ami
NAL. They pay their way with the
wool they yield and they exterminate
hoxious weeds practically without cost.

PROPER FEED FOR DRY COWS
Roushase Supplemented by Daily Al
lowance of Bran and Oats Is
Recommended as Good.

During the eight or ten weeks that
cows go dry, their food should be
chiefly roughage. A daily allowance
of two pounds Of bran or oats. or a
mixture of two parts each of bran
and oats and one part Of linseed meal
or corn-oil meal makes proper feed
for cow near calving. Some roots,
cabbage, pumpkins, or squashes are
also very good. Highly carbonaceous
roughage, such as straw and corn
stalks, Is not good at this particular
time. Such feeds, with cold water.
cold drafts, or lying out at night on
damp or frozen ground, are the chief
