b. +. Taylor spent most of the week
in the city awaiting word from his son
in Montana concerning a big stock
ranch they are preparing to purchase
over in the Treasure" state. Mr.
Taylor says the range is getting SO
short across the river on account of the
numerous homestead filings that the
stockmen are forced to turn their herds
onto winter range early in the fall and
this leaves them quite short of feed in
the winter. During winters of deer
snow. like the past few years, they are
forced to drive their cattle out to the
prairie for feed and often times are
unable to procure hay for them ever
out here in suitable quantities and a,
proper price. Hence the necessity OF
moving to better range country.

Sugar Reets For Dairy Cows.

Sugar beets and mangels tend to In.
crease milk projection when fed to
dairy cows, but experiments conducted
at the Ohio experiment station show
that corn silage is far more economical
to feed. Because of this fact these
dairy experts do not advise the feeding
of beets except for high records where
cost is minor consideration or where
the number of cows is too small to per-
NIT the use of silo.
Cows fed beets had keen appetites
and ate more food because Of the stim-
ulating effects of this root crop. After
ten years work the Ohio station has
found that two pounds of dry matter
can be produced in the form OF silage
at less cost than one pound In the form
of beets. Convenience In feeding is In
favor of silage.
