EXTRA FEED FATTENS CATTLE
Summer Pasture Increases Mate
rally Rate of Gains.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Feeding cottonsaed cake to steers as
a supplement to summer pasture in
creases materially the rate of gains
made by the animals, causes them to
finish more quickly and take on high
or degree Of finish, and increases the
margin between the buying and selling
prices, specialists of the United States
department of agriculture say in Bull
letin TIT, just published by the depart
ment. The bulletin is a report of ex-
periments in fattening steers on sum-
mer pasture conducted comparatively
by the department and the Alabama
experiment station in 1912 and 1913,
and the Mississippi experiment station
in 1915 and 1918.
All the experiments were carried out
under actual and typical farm condi-
lions. Consequently the results may
be applied directly In many regions to
the management and feeding of cattle
on pasture. In each experiment,
groups Of steers were kept on pas
ture alone; on pasture with a supple
mentary feed OF one-half corn chop and
one-half cottoneeed cake; and on pas
ture with a supplementary feed of cot
tonseed cake. The average daily gains
for each animal, which may be consid-
cred the most valuable standard In
Judging the efficiency of rations, were
t.49 pounds for the steers getting pas
ture only; 1873 pounds for the steers
getting cottonseed cake with pasture
and 1.53 pounds for those on pasture
supplemented by the mixture of cake
and corn chop.
The initial cost of the steers per 100
pounds Of the three groups was the
s,Eme for any one year, but in each
case the steers on pasture alone sold
for a lower price. The margins be-
tween the buying and selling prices of
the cattle were always in favor of
those which were fed supplements with
| their pastures. The margins aver
aged less than 25 cents a hundred
pounds for the steers on pasture alone,
compared to 90 cents for animals
which were fed cottonseed cake with
pasture, and Sly cents for the ami
mails whose pasture was supplemented
with the mixture of cake and corn
chop. After the animals had been

MILK AIDS EGG PRODUCTION
Value as Part of Poultry Ration Strik-
lngly Demonstrated at Purdue
University.

That milk has value as a part of
the poultry ration was strikingly dem
onstrated by the results obtained on
one of the poultry demonstration farms
which are established and conducted
by Purdue university.
One farmer who had been feeding
milk to his flock discontinued doing
so with the arrival of the summer
months thinking that the fowls would
pick up enough insects to make up for
the food value that was furnished by
the milk. Almost Immediately, how
ever, his daily egg production began
falling off until, in one month, 1t had
dropped off to one-half what 1t had
been for the month previous. When
milk was again made a part of the
ration, the daily egg production grad
ually increased. AS a result of the
milk fed, the production the following
month was as good as in the spring
months and the extra profit made
more than paid for the milk fed.

II You Need a Medicine

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, IL like
an endless chain system the remedy 10

benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for

preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a

According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..

More wheat should be sown this
fall than was the average in pre-war
years, but not so much should be sown
as was sown last year. This is the
outstanding fall farming recommends
ton Of the United States department
of Agriculture, which is watching the
changes of world supply and demand
while European countries are getting
back to normal in food production and
thus affecting the market for Ameri-
can products. The departments sug-
gestions are based on the observa-
tons of specialists who were sent
abroad to report on foreign conditions
and probable needs, and on the most
extensive reports it has been possible
to obtain from other sources in this
country and other countries.
AS to winter wheat, the department
suggests that 100000 acres be sown
this fall to this crop, and that 20,0O0,-
coo acres be sown in 1920 to spring
wheat, making a probable aggregate
production in 1920 of S30,000,000 BUSH
els, of which 20O,000,000 bushels would
be available for export after home
needs are met. This production would
Approximately equal the average yield
of wheat in the United states for the
five years 1915 to 1919, inclusive. The
tive-year average is thought to be a
safe guide for American farmers.
Suggested Acreage for Wheat.
The suggested acreage for fall-sown
wheat is approximately 50 per cent
of the area sown in the fall of 1918,
and is about the same as was sOwn
in the fall of 1917. The suggested area
for spring wheat is approximately IS
per cent of the area sown in each of
the last two years. The combined acre
age Of winter and spring wheat sug-
gested for 1920 is about SO per cent
of the acreage sOwn for the 1919 cr0p,
slightly more than the acreage sown
for the bumper crop of 1915 and about
per cent less than the area sown for
the 1918 crop.
Winter Rye.
The pressure of war demands for
rye has ceased, and it does not seem
probable that exports next year will
greatly exceed 25,000,000 bushels.
Consumption of rye in this country
was stimulated by the war to about
100000 bushels. If this rate of con-
sumption is maintained, a crop of 75,-
100000 to S0,G0O,000 bushels would be
necessary to provide 25,000,000 bushels
for export, indicating a total acreage
Of 100000 to 100000 acres, in COM
parison with 6,S00,00O acres sown last
fall.
"In any consideration of the prob
able foreign demand for American
wheat and rye based on pre-war con-
sumption experience" says the depart

NOT STRONG ON GRATITUDE
Careless Driver Apparently Unable to
See Wherein He Had Been
Given Any Help.

The horse had run away, and was
tangled up in the wire fence at the
side of the muddy road. Its half-wit-
ted owner had kicked and sworn and
tried to lift" the animal till he was
out of sorts and covered with mud.
A well-groomed man came along,
took in the situation, and suggested !:
''Spring the fence back, then he can
get his feet free"
The owner of the horse did as he
was told. "Now give him cut with
the whip and he'll get up himself"
This the owner also did. Then he
looked at the horse, up and ready for
travel, looked at himself covered with
mud, and looked at the immaculate
gentleman in the road. Wrath filled
his soul.
"Well," he grumbled, "thank you
just as much as if you'd helped me-"

If the best results are to be obtained
with poultry they must be furnished
with a plentiful supply of green feed.
Where fowls have unlimited range on
a farm they will secure green feed
during the spring, but during the win
ter it must be supplied for them. The
question Of how to supply the best
feed at the least cost is one that each
poultry keeper must decide largely for
himself. 1t will probably make but
little difference what kind of green
feed Is supplied, provided it is relished
by the fowls. Cabbages, turnips,
beets, potatoes, ETC., are suitable fol-
this purpose. The larger roots and
the cabbages may be suspended by
means of wire or string, or they
may be placed on the floor, in which
case it would be well to split the tur-
nips or beets lengthwise with large
knife. Potatoes and turnips should be
fed cooked. The mangel Is an excel

and ground alfalfa make very good
feeds for this purpose. Where the
fowls are yarded and not enough
green feed Is furnished by the yard
a small patch Of clover, alfalfa or rape
may be sown. Any one Of these, If
frequently moved, will furnish a great
quantity Of green feed in a form
which is relished by the fowls. Can
ada field peas may also be sown for
this purpose, and when fed in a ten

Steers Receiving Supplementary Cot
tonseed Cake on Pasture Gained
1888 Pounds Apiece Daily.

butchered inspection showed that the
steers which were fed cottonseed cake
or a mixture Of cake and corn with
pasture dressed out higher than the
cattle which had pasture alone.
While the steers that had pasture
alone made gains cheaply, the total
gains were not large, and the steers
did not take on high finish. Their
unfinished condition Is reflected in the
small margin on which they were sold
and low dressing percentages. Thus
the profits they returned were smaller
than for the steers in the other two
groups.
The cost of gains of steers on pas
ture Is greatly increased by feeding
cottonseed cake, it was found, but the
better market price received for cake
fed cattle usually pays for the addi-
tional cost of feeding cake, and re-
turns greater average profit than
is realized on the grass-fed cattle. One
of the distinct advantages of supple
menting pastures for concentrates is
the fact that steers so handled can be
finished more quickly and can be mar
keted earlier than steers getting grass
alone. Thus the cattle can be sold be-
fore the rush of grassfed cattle gluts
the market and depresses prices.
Moreover, when cattle are marketed
early, the pastures have time to re-
cuperate and furnish good grazing for
other stock during the fall.
There is only one case, says the bull
letin, when pasture alone is prefera-
BILE to pastures with concentrates.
Steers of inferior quality may return
more profit by grazing alone than by
grazing with the addition Of supple
mentary feeds, especially when they
are on good pastures that are cheap.
Scrub steers do not respond readily
to the use of good feeds, and even
when we'll finished do not command
satisfactory prices in competition with
weil-bred cattle similarly finished. The
better the quality of the steers, the
safer it is to give them high-prlced
feeds.

Other factors affecting American ex-
port trade are rates of exchange, which
In many cases are decidedly unfavor-

However, pork exports at least prob
ably will be greatly in excess next

quire two years to get back to pre-war
pork production, and their present
needs are great.
