BUYING FEED INGREDIENTS
Difficult to Buy Proper Feed Stuffs at
Random.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
There are not a dozen feed stores
In the country that carry in stock all
the ingredients of a first-cla5s 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-
the highest price. A good many ex-
pertinent stations in a general way
Will advocate that a 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 a clinic for professors to prae-
tice theories upon. The poor brutes
are used q good deal as guinea pigs
in hospital practice. On the other
hand, at tho 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 matter of arith-
metic.
You can usually get the result for
less money than by feeding more ex-
pensive grains separately.

Nor have they come to life casually.

Americas Greatest Cereal Crop

Americas great. corn crop, exceed
lng 5000, 000, 900 bushels will save the
worlds food situation officials of the
United States, food administration be-
ieye.
Corn is the nations best food cereal,
housewives are beginning to realize.
1t contains all the elements needed TO
keep the body in state of health and
when used according to the scores of
Tried recipes especially when com
Jined with an added portion of oil or
Fat, will sustain life indefinitely. In
liam warriors in colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at
line and at Valley Forge parched
.orn was at times the sole ration OF
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
is reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 30
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by five bush
els than in former years.
Corn has. become the nations main
stay in the crisis of war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine ON
| many occasions, just as it served as a
staple food during the War of the Rev
olution and during the Civil War, King
Corn has again come to the front in
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increas-
ed use in the making of ordinary white
| bread Hundreds of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
| 20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
| flour TO make leavened bread. This
| kind of mixture is worked and baked
in the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread. :
Corn .bread--using corn meal entire
| ly---is gaining q greater popularity
| than ever before. Housewives are
! coming to realize that every pound of
wheat saved in America means a pound
of wheat released for shipment to the
nations with which America is associ-
ated in the war.
There are a score of corn products
that today possess unusual Importance
| for Americans Corn syrup for sweet
ening corn cakes and huckwheat cakes
and for use in the kitchen instead of
graduated sugar is one of the leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil, excellent for frying. and for
every other purpose filled by salad oils,
| is appearing on the market in large
quantities. 1t comes from the germ of
the corn.

THE DAIRY RATION
Feeding Tables Hard to Follow On
account of Variation of

For many years feeders have en-.
deayored to use so-called standard
| tables showing the theoretical num-
Der of pounds each of so-called di-
gestible protein, fats and carhohy-
drates. These methods are fatally
defective for the following reasons:
First, the tables call for so much
digestDle food. If there was such
thing as digestible food it might fur
nish a basis to go by, but digestible
food is really apparently digestible
food, in that it disappears in the body.
Just what use is made of it is not al
ways clear Some of 1t turSs into gas,
| some is converted into heat, and much
of it is used in the labor of digesting
and handling the food. In the case
of straw and similar material, nearly
all of its energy is used up in the
labor of digesting it, leaving little or
no net gain. Straw should be re-
turned TO the soil. Take two samples
of dried barley grains, each contain
ing the same amount of digestible
food, and one will give twenty more
therms or heat units than the other.
One hundred pounds of digestible
food derived from roughage is about
equal to eighty pounds derived from
grain, so if we add together things
which are unlike, we get no tangible
results. 1t is like adding so many
pounds TO so many gallons So. the
digestibIe basis of figuring r6tions 10
yery inaccurate. The correct way is.
first, to ascertain how much protein
and energy COW needs to sustain
life and keep weight. You can get
this FROM your experiment station,
and ascertain how much is necessary
to make one pound of milk of GER
tain fat test, and then feed her as
much protein and energy as is needed
to maintain her and supply food for
as many pounds of milk as she can
make.
This is a very difficult problem
and few can do it, and we challenge
any two men to tackle the same prob
lem under the same conditions and
arrive at the same result.
we CduuOl tell unltSS VIC II W Huu
out, that a COW will not give more
milk on more feed, or maybe as much
milk on less feed So feeding is large
~ experimental, as no two cows are
alike.
However, the law of averages will
hold, and the feeder can save all this
trouble and much loss by feeding a
ration which his experiment station
has in most cases made. say three to
four pounds of NIX for each pound
of mixed feed.
There is one thing certain. The
more solids and fat in the milk. the
more reed needed per pound of milk
So, good mixed feed which is prop
erly com bined and all the roughage
she will eat will greatly simplify your
feeding problem and very little ex-
prrimenting will soon show you how
much concentrates each COW needs 70

THE MANURIaC INGREDIENTS OF
FEEDS.


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
tion states that it was found that the
average mixed fertilizer contained
295 per cent nitrogen and showed in
a table that eighteen of tifty-two dit
ferent feeds contained 1893 per cent.
Among this list is cottonseed and lin
seed meals, gluten seed, middlings,
brewers and distillers' products, and
a 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.

No suggestions that we can offer
nor any other formula that can he
made can be followed to the letter as
a druggist follows the prescription of

tritive values, some being better than
the average and some not as good.
and COWS vary in their ability to d.
gest and transform nutriment. These
conditions make 1t necessary for the
