GROW FEED FOR LIVESTOCK
Increases in the Herds Must Be
Followed by Larger Feed
Crops

While Florida is doing her best
to increase the number of animals
on the farm, a great mistake will
be made if she does not produce
enough feeds for them. The old
method of importing feeds for
farm animals cannot be continued.
An overtaxed transportation sys-
TEN demands a change in the
method. The price of imported
feeds compared with the cost of
feeds grown on the farm where
they are to be fed makes the
change imperative. Realizing the
necessity, the University of ,Flori-
ola extension division is urging
farmers to grow the cheaper feeds
for livestock.
The proper feeding of livestock
might be said to be half the bust
ness Of producing stock for the
market. And whether feeds are
grown on the farm or bought from
the dealer may decide whether the
stockman is to have a balance to
his credit as profit at the end Of
the year.
While it is necessary that the
herds of meat and dairy animals
be maintained if the nation is to
be well fed, few farmers are suf-
fciently patriotic or able to main
tain the herds if it cannot be done
at profit.
Pastures are essential to the
making of economical gains in
meat animals. Dry-lot feeding is
expensive and extravagant. A
short period of dry-lot feeding
may be necessary if an animal is
to be finished properly for market,
but aside from that the pasture
and cheap forage crop must be re-

descendants through succeeding
years. Yet this is not all. Many
of the hogs were given the anti
cholera treatment in the presence
of their owners. The owners were
thus taught how to administer Sc
rum, the recognized control for
cholera, and by having this knowl-
edge and the means for applying
it chelera will not make the severe
inroads on the hog population in
the future that it has in the past.
For this reason a certain percent
age of the value of the hogs in the
State in succeeding years might
well be added to this item.
Then there are results that can
not be measured in dollars. Boys
and girls have been taught how to
raise better corn and hogs, and to
can or otherwise save the surplus
products of the farm gardens.
They will become better farmers
and better housewives than their
parents are. Farmers are using
better seed for planting and better
breeding stock as a basis for their
herds of livestock. They are plant
ing new crops and handling old
ones in new and more profitable
ways. They are learning how to
manipulate their land in keeping
with the plan for diversified farm
ing.

first draft, are believed to date
from some slight trouble neglected
in early childhood or infancy. The
Children's Bureau emphasizes the
fact that a higher standard Of
physical fitness of the rising gen
Grafton can be assured only by
greater attention to the physical
conditions of children, and the
proper handling of the newborn.
Prenatal instruction, proper
medical attendance at the time of
birth, infant welfare work, consul
tation stations, properly modified
milk, are some of the essentials
for the conservation of child life.
Once men believed that "God
fixed the death rate" and death
was regarded as an act of divine
providence; but we are now COM
ing to look on infant mortality as
an evidence of human weakness

lied upon for producing the ami
mails growth.
AS forage crops, two Of the
cheapest that should not be over
looked are velvet beans and Sor-
ghum. Velvet beans, their cul-
ture and their value as food for
beef and dairy animals, are well
understood. Sorghum is not 50
generally grown for forage as the
merits Of the crop demand
Sorghum is one of the best grain
and forage crops for Florida. In
it's feeding value, pound for
pound, the seed is nearly equal to
corn. 1t is a good forage or hay
crop when harvested and properly
cured. AS a soiling crop it gives
good results. 1t is one Of the best
silo crops the State can produce.

VALUE OF ORGANIZED WORK
Cooperative Demonstration Work
Benefits Farmers 100000

That the value of the co-opera-
tive demonstration work of. the
University of Florida to farmers
of the State is more than two mil
Lion dollars is shown by the annual
report for the year 1917, just pub
lished. While figures are usually
uninteresting, these should vary
from the rule. The total value to
farmers is given as $2,241 ,024,
which sum is shown by adding
four sets of values:
That obtained by increased crop
production, $280,764; by livestock
added to farms or saved from dis
ease, $616,013; by improvements
10 farms, $242,835; by fertilizers
or manure applied, 81, 101, 412.
According to these figures, for
every dollar spent in cooperative
demonstration work in Florida by
the State and Federal govern
ments, the farmers are nineteen
dollars better off. In other words,
the dollar comes back with one
hundred and eighty per cent inter-
est. Not such bad investment,
at that.
And the results as measured by
the dollar scale at the end Of the
year are not final. Take the value
of livestock added to the farms. A
part of this consists in purebred
dairy and beef cattle and purebred
hogs. Only the initial cost is
placed in the years summary, yet
the real value will come through
the succeeding generations of bet
ter blooded animals.
Another estimate is of interest.
THE value of hogs saved by treat
ment against cholera is placed con-
servatively at 100000. And this
value is not final. For many of
those hogs were of improved

Feed Chicks Little and Often

The first rule, after chicks have
been taken from the nest or the in
cubator, is to starve them for for
ty-eight hours, says the University
of Florida extension division. This
gives the yolk of the egg, which is
absorbed just before the chick
matches, chance to start digest

The first feeds should consist of
some easily digested materials,
such as rolled oats, bread crumbs
or finely cracked grains. Give "a

times daily, and dry mash kept
constantly before them.
For the present season cracked
corn or sorghum and clipped or
steel cut oats will be the most a.
valuable grains for scratch feeds.
For mash equal parts of bran,
shorts and corn meal will be found
satisfactory, or equal parts of corn
meal and ground oats may be used.
In addition to these grain feeds a
feed rich in animal protein should
be provided. Sour milk, either
buttermilk or skim milk, is the
most satisfactory protein for lit
tie chicks. Give the chicks all
they will drink each day.
