FATTENING FEED FOR STEERS
Experimental Stations Recommend
Corn SiIage and Concentrates as
Best for Cattle.

Corn silage and concentrates are
highly recommended as fattening feed
for steers. Experimental stations re-
port that silage and oil meal or cot
tonseed meal invariably prove to be
cheaper than corn or even than hay
or corn with concentrates or silage
and hay by themselves.
It is admitted that a steer cannot
be finished for beef properly and to
the best advantage on an all-siiage
diet. But the most polished steer ON
the market is not always the most
profitable one. High priced feed may
surcost the high priced carcass.

Take good care of the cows. The

FEED FOR MILK PRODUCTION
Many Old Cows viii Increase Capacity
IL Fed on Properly Balanced
Ration.

There are q large number Of old
cows that will increase their capacity
for milk-giving If fed on a properly
balanced ration and with a large
amount of succulent food the year
round. This is what develops the ca
pacity of the COW. a great many
cows are never fed with the idea OF
getting out of them the greatest
amount of milk possible each year,
with due regard to the health Of the
cows. If, however, the old cows were
fed with this idea in mind, they would
continue to give large mess of rich
milk.

pIow 10 Alfalfa Sod.

The best plan, where the alfalfa sod
is beginning to show the ravages of
wear, is to pillow up the field and de-
vote it to some cultivated crop, such
as corn, for one or two years, and then
to reseed it to alfalfa after preparing
a proper seed bed, lining the soil If
necessary. properly inoculating the
soil or seed, and sowing the seed early
enough In the fall so that the crop
will establish vigorous root system
and produce sufficient growth to weath'
err the winter successfully.
