FEEDS HIS STEERS ON
SWEET CORN

If there are any cattle in the country
entitled to turn up their noses" and
spurn the ordinary rank and file of
cattle kind, the steers fed by Albert
Hostetter, in Montgomery county, Ohio
surely have this right.
Not simply because they are fed out
in the native stamping grounds OF most
Of the presidents, but on account of
the toothsome dainties they get to eat
while they are taking on fat for the
market. Hostetter feeds about 200
steers every year. and good share Of
their "eats" is not just silage, but
sweet corn silage stI "a
1t happens like this: Hostetter has
a big sweet corn evaporating plant on
his farm in the Buckeye state. He
contracts with dozens Of farmers to
supply him with the corn. In being
prepared for the evaporating ovens the
cobs, husks, and hard ears are tossed
aside and later placed in the four big
silos. Then Hostetter buys from $50
to 200 steers every year to clean up
this ensilage.
Last fall he bought 100 head of
branded Herefords from the Carson
ranch in the Sand Hill country of Ne
braska. They averaged 100 pounds

figures. With the increasing demand
for horses and mules, and with the
greatest shortage of ~foals and yearlings
in proportion to total horses in exis-
tence that has ever been known, there
can be but one outcome. Good horses
and mules are certain to increase in
value, and men who expect to purchase
farm work horses will soon wish they
had bred their own replacements.
The most serious factor in the present
situation is shortage of good stations.

put in good young western mares,
standing 16 hands high and weighing
1900 or 1900 pounds at three or four
