CORN AIDS DAIRY COW FEED
Producers Ignore Its Cheap and Nutn.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
With well-fitted corn cribs on many
farms, and relatively low prices pre-
valling this year, it is time, says
feeding specialist from the dairy divi-
sion, United States Department of
Agriculture, that correction should be
made of the impression found in GER
tain localities that corn is not good
feed for dairy cows. Certain recent
inquiries on this subject indicate that
the use of corn in the dairy ration Is
not understood by all dairymen; and
it is hoped that correction of this
impression may lead to greater util-
ization Of the large 1920 crop for
dairy-cattle feeding.
"When 1t is fed for a definite pur-
pose, with IA complete knowledge of its
limitations as well as its true worth,
corn is one Of the best and cheapest
grains we have that can be used for
the economical production of milk"
says the feeding specialist Some
dairymen avoid feeding 1t altogether,
or account of the mistaken idea that
1t Is not suited to COW producing
milk. This is because it is so gem
orally used for fattening both hogs
and cattle, and because it has not been
successful when used alone for dairy
COW feeding"
The function Of corn in the ration
Is to furnish the animal with material
for producing heat, energy, and fat;
but is rather low in protein and de-
ficient in ash. When fed alone, it does
not supply largely the nutrients which

SELECTING BREEDING STOCK
Stock Improvement 10 Closely Related
TO Heredity Control Which In
sures Best Matings.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Raising the standard of farm an
imals and poultry and bringing out
certain desirable characteristics BY
slective breeding is receiving more
attention as methods Of farming for
profit become Intensified.
The breeding Of domestic animals
dates back to remote antiquity, when
the most advanced races of the old
world were still on the border line
between savagery and barbarism. It
far antedates any but the simplest
mechanical arts. Yet while our
knowledge Of the laws Of nature as
they apply to mechanics has reached
very great magnitude and completely,
it is comparatively only few
years since the principles Of breeding
have been more than collection Of
unrelated traditional beliefs.
The same supersitiens on which the
shepherds Of Asia based their Drac-
tees at least 80 centuries ago are still
widely current while the one sound
principle known to the ancients-se-
lection of the best for breeding stock
is still largely neglected.
The principles Of successful animal
breeding, as they have been learned
by practical experience in the United
States and other older countries, and
by careful scientific study along deA-
mite lines, are outlined in Department
Bulletin 905, recently issued by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture.
This bulletin goes into the first prin-
ciples Of reproduction and follows the
means by which certain characteris-
tics of one or the other parent are
transmitted to the offspring, the meth
DDS Of selection best suited to inten-
sify the desirable characteristics and
weed out the undesirable, tho char
acteristics which can with certainty
be expected to continue from enc gen
Grafton to another, those which are
uncertain, those which will blend, and
those which cannot be inherited.

demand. improvement is. Of course,
closely related to control over hered-
ity, but the methods which give the
greatest control are not necessarily
those which lead to the most rapid
improvement.
In broad sense the whole subject
of practical breeding comes under the
head of selection. The most obvious
basis for such selection is the per-
formapce Of the animals themselves.
Unfortunately, the merit of most
kinds of live stock cannot be meas
ured directly. The study Of conforma-
ton as an index Of useful qualities
has accordingly held a high place
as a basis for selection Of breeding
stock. Live stock judging has this
for its purpose An animal of good
breeding is better one to breed than
one of equal individual merit but Of
mixed or common breeding. Pedi-
gree. though often misused, is val
liable aid to selection, apart from fol-
lowing general policy Of mating.
The soundest basis of all for selec-
ton of breeding stock Is the record
of past performance as u breeder, pro
vided the record is sufficiently extern
sive to give fair test.
