THE MANURIAL INGREDIENTS OF
EEEnG

National Crop Improvement servcel
Nitrogen is the most important and
most valuable fertilizing element sup
piled by feeds, and it is in this ele-
ment that they show the greatest
variation.
The Connecticut Experiment Sta
ton states that it was found that the
average mixed fertilizer contained
2.95 per cent nitrogen and showed in
a table that eighteen Of fifty-two iif-
ferent feeds contained 1893 per cent.
Among this list is cottonseed and lin
seed meals, gluten seed, middlings,
brewers and distillers' products, and
few of the feed mixtures. 1t is OBJ
vious, therefore, that a wise selection
of feeds enhances the value of the
manure and consequently plays an
important part in farm economy.

Stockfood consists briefly of three
chief parts or compounds, emitting
the water and minerals. They are:
Protein Containing nitrogen). a
muscle former.
Fat (not containing nitrogen), q
fuel or fattening substance.
Carbohydrates (meaning made Of
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen).
These three substances are called
organic matter, because they will
burn.
Mineral matter is called inorganic.
An animal can live on protein alone.
but would not under normal condi-
lions, because protein Cor albumen)
is only found mixed with fat in the
case of meat and with fat and carbo-
hydrates in the case of plants and
cereals. Familiar examples OF pro-
tein are white of egg, lean meat and
Of wheat. Fat or oil we all know.
Carbohydrates include sugar.
starch, cellulose, fibre, gums, etc.
To keep alive and not lose weight
an animal must have small amounts
Of protein and larger amounts of fat
or carbohydrates! They serve as
building material to replace WORKOUT
tissue and flesh and also to furnish
power (energy) to move, work, and
do all the inside work of the body.
The ash or mineral matter fur
nishes bone material and is also nee
essary but abundant in nature. A
growing animal needs plenty of pro-
tein and ash (bone food) and of car
bohydrates and fat. A grown-up ami
NAL needs less of either the first two,
but plenty Of the last two. A preg-
nant animal needs plenty of food for
it's unborn young.

National Crop Improvement Service

National Crop Improvement Serycel
There are not dozen feed stores
In the country that carry in stock all
the ingredients of a first-class mixed
feed at all times and at reasonable
prices, and usually they do not carry
feeds OF the same high quality used
by the mixers who work scientifically
through laboratory. This is human
nature. Competition compels dealer
to sell the cheapest quality. The best
quality OF feed is seldom carried, be-
cause the average buyer will not pay
the highest price. A good many ex-
pertinent stations in a general way
will advocate that farmer mix all
his own feed, but they are human like
the rest OF us and they will use recog-
nized brands in their own feeding
operations rather than go to the trou-
BILE and take the time to follow their
own advice.
There are a good many herds at
experiment stations which are kept as
sort of clinic for professors to prac-
tice theories upon. The poor brutes
are used a good deal as guinea pigs
In hospital practice. On the other
hand, at the experiment stations are
to be found many OF the finest ami
mails ever bred.
The mixed feeds of the first grade
can be fed alone or in connection with
homegrown corn, oats or barley. To
do this widens your ration, and it is
correct to do so if it will reduce your
. cost OF feeding. Mixed feeds, there
fore, are largely a matter of arith-
metic.
You can usually get the result for
less money than by feeding more ex-
pensive grains separately.

WHAT'S IN A MIXED FEEpY
National Crop Improvement servIc,


A high-grade mixed feed suitable
for any kind or breed of dairy COW
should have high protein content
with an exact digestible analysis. II
can be mixed with corn, oats, barley
hay or other forage, which should be
grown upon the farm, provided the
mixture would save the farmer any
money. AS a rule, the ingredients OF
the highest grades are corn, distillers
grains, gluten feed, cottonseed meal
hominy meal, malt sprouts, brewers
grains. hnseed meal, pure wheat bran
and salt. The best grades contain no
cheap filters OF any kind and so the
food is highly concentrated and
roughage can be supplied at home.

BARLEY PRODUCTS.

Prof. j. P. Street, in the Annual
Report of the Connecticut Agricul-
tural Station for 1912, says: THAT
malt sprouts should receive more con-
sideration from dairymen, especially
in comparison with many of the pro-
prietary mixed feeds containing only
from one-third to one-hslf as much
protein as malt sprouts, prices being
considered"
He also states that dried brewers
grains, prices considered, in connec-
ton with the feeds high analysis, is
one of the cheapest high-grade feeds
on the market.

stores result in the securing Of articles
of food and clothing at equitable
prices, the division among the natives
themselves of profits which would 9TH
erwise go to a white trader, and in the
acquiring by the natives Of self-confi-
dence and experience in business az
Sei-s. The bureau experts say that 1t
is most encouraging to note the ability
which the natives have shown in con-
Quoting these enterprises. According
to one Of the experts, who has looked
closely into this work, the income OF
one of the villages has increased $50
per cent because Of the establishment
Of one of these cooperative stores.
For some time past there has been
a policy on the part of the govern
ment to set aside carefully selected
tracts to which large numbers of ma
tives can be attracted, and within
which, secure from the intrusion of I'M
scrupulous white men, the natives can
obtain fish and game and conduct their
own Industrial and commercial enter-
prises. One of the latest tracts to be
so set aside was that on the kObuk
river, which was made in compliance
with the urgent request of the natives
on Kotzebue sound; avho wished to MI
crate from the village which had been
their home from time immemorial, due,
it is said, to the fact that life in it had
become increasingly difficult, the de-
velopment of mining and the influx OF
white men having resulted in the kill
ing off Of game animals and in great
scarcity of fuel. Within their new res
ervation on the shores of the remote
Arctic river these natives can secure
an abundapt supply Of fish, game and
timber, and can build up new village
for themselves.
