Dehorned Cattle Most Profitable

DehOrned Cattle Most Profitable
Farmers who wish to realize the
greatest profit from their cattle will
do we'll to dehorn them while they
are calves, according to suggestions
made by animal husbandry special
lists at the College of Agriculture.
Dehorned steers are worth about so
cents more a hundred pounds as
feeders, will make more rapid gains
in the feedlot and lose less weight
in being shipped to the market.
Dairy cows also are less liable to
injure one another when they have
their horns removed. This is the
best time of the year to dehorn old
cattle, conditions being most favora-
BILE after the first frosts when flies
have disappeared. Calves may be
dehorned any time during the year,
the best time being when they are
about one week old.
"a stick of caustic potash is the
only thing needed to remove the
horns from calves" Wayland
Rhoads, extension specialist in beef
cattle said" The hair should be
clipped from over the horn button
and small ring of grease rubbed
around 1t about one-half inch from
the base of the horn to prevent the
caustic from running. The stick
of caustic should be wrapped in
paper to prevent its burning the
hands of the person using it. The
end should be moistened and then
rubbed on the button until it be-
comes tender, about one-half minute
being the amount of time necessary.
An scab win later form AMI drop
of leaving the head smooth. The
calves should be kept out OF the
rain for a few days as the caustic
dissolves when 1t becomes wet and
may give trouble.
"The easiest way to remove horns
from older animals is to use set
of large dehorning shears or saw.
The saw is sometimes preferable in
case the horns are brittle since there
is no danger OF crushing them. Care
should be taken to see that the in
strument used is clean. II is prefera-
BILE to remove the horns close
enough to the head to remove
small ring OF hair. This is the
easiest place TO cut the horn and
also the besa since the head heals

October Is Final Month For Sowing
Cover Crops

Cover crops
October is the final month during
which, farmers who wish to protect
their fields during the winter can
sow cover crops, according to R. E.
Stephenson, soils extension special
list from the College of Agriculture.
Many farmers have already realized
the value of such crops and seeded
their fields with them, reports from
more than so Kentucky counties in
dicating, that the acreage OF such
crops will be increased from one
third to one-fourth more than that
of last year. Rye which has proved
to be the most popular crop for this
purpose up to the present time can
be seeded later than any OF the
others recommended for cover crops.
DR.. Stephenson said.
In sowing cover crops farmers are
coping successfully with the largest
single soil management problem
which they have, Mr.. Stephenson
said. This problem is the conserva-
tion OF plant food and the preven-
tion of teaching and erosion. Re-
gardless of teaching and erosion
cover crops are profitable ones in
view of their green manure and pas
ture value. Many Kentucky farm
ers will be compelled to SOW cover
crops this fall II ;fey wish to keep
their farms up to . high state OF
production since their fields are in
such condition that in few years
they will be quilted and leached be-
yond redemption. Mr.. Stephenson
said.

Winter Daiiying Offers Means or
Greater Profits

Greater Profits
Greater production of dairy prod
ucts during the winter months by
breeding cows to produce their
calves in the fall rather than in the
spring as is now the case on many
farms offers Kentucky farmers an
excellent opportunity for increasing
the profits from this phase of their
business. according to J. j. Hooper,
the College of Agriculture. At the
present time Kentucky farmers are
producing about 20 per cent of
their dairy products between May 1
and November 1 and the remaining
80 per cent during the six winter
months, according to Mr.. Hooper.
This condition should be revised or
at least equalized if the greatest
profits possible are to be expected
from the dairy business, he said.
A maximum production of milk
during the winter months will make
it possible for farmers to realize the
greatest profit from their dairies
since all dairy products bring the
highest price during that season Of
the year. Labor also is cheaper
and time more plentiful in which
! to care for the COW and 500 her calf
The fact that a calf born in the fall
will make greater growth during the
year, if given the proper attention
than one that is born in the spring
is another advantage in favor OF
winter clarifying.
To have cows produce theil
calves at the proper time in the fall
they should be bred in mid-winter
since breeding them during the
early. fall will cause them to fresh
en- during the spring. The cow tina
freshens in the spring will lag il
production when the drouth of sum
mer arrives and will begin to DIR!
off in the fall after she has beer
milking about six months. On tn
, other hand the COW that is fresh il
the fall will be stimulated by tn
calf to give her greatest flow of mill
, during the ,winter months when sh
, is fed on silage and grain. She viii
| be stimulated again to create
production in the summer whel
, pastures are at their best. The COY
, that freshens in the fall will produc
25 per cent more milk during tn
, wear than one that freshens durin
t the spring because of these condi
: tons, Mr.. Hooper said.

Grain Fed Now Boosts Fall MIX

Successful feeding of dairy cattle

and fed 1t the rate of one pound for

homes before they start laying, ac-
cording to j. X. Smyth, field agent
in poultry from the College of Ag-
riculture. This preparation is es-
pecially important in the case Of
pullets since any change in their
living conditions after they begin TO
lay is apt to cause them to stop for
a time.
The interior arrangement of the

ant item in the satisfactory and eff
ficient management and housing Of

cialists say. II the nests, roosts and
equipment are placed OFF the floor

used for scratching purposes. This
arrangement necessitates a dropping
board under the roosts which keep

should be two and one-half to three
feet from the floor and extend at
least 10 inches beyond the edge Of

placed on level no trouble will be
experienced in keeping the birds

a result of the increased acreage of
cover crops which has been sown,
according to report of County Ag-

bushels of Rosen rye have been dis
tributed to be used for cover crops
and this together with a normal
acreage of wheat and 200 per cent
increased in the acreage of sweet
clover which will be sown is expect
ed to result in more protection to
fields of the county than has ever
been the case.
