SOME USEFUL POINTERS ON
THE FATTENING OF STEERS

With the animal in its natural state
fattening is simply laying up nut
rients in time of plenty to be drawn
On when food is scarce Man has taken
advantage Of this faculty and uses
tie animal to change materials un-
suited for human consumption into
more desirable form. From the ami
mails standpoint. the fat laid on un-
der the skin. or around the kidneys
end intestines has as much fuel value
as any other. but the consumer Of
maet carea most for the fat laid he.
st&dsd-elss uuscie nbres. Since we'll
bred. beef cattle put more Of their fat
in the muscles than do dairy cattle or
scrubs. they are more in demand by
feeders and bring higher prices when
fat.
Fat II only put Oh after the de-
mands Of the body for heat. energy
and repair material have been provid-
cd for. These necessary requirements
arc called maintenance. Maintenance
uses up nearly half the average ration
Of the steer. To fatten a steer econ
Omically means to feed ms much above
the maintenance requirement II = the
steer can eat. Too many beginners try
to fatten their animals on three
quarter ration. and get only half the
gains they shoald. The missing part
Of the ration comes out Of the half
that would put on gains. and not out
OF maintenance Maintenance Is the
overhead" that brings In no returns
In the feedlot, no that 1t pays to feed
steer all he can handle over and n
bOve maintenance without spelling
his appetite and digestion. 1t Is gains
that make money In the feeti-lots. and
gains come from the last pounds or cx
ira pounds Of feed that the steer eats.
Another secret Of success Is to bc
found right here. Anything that In
crcases maintenance reduces the H.
mount Of nutrients that can be used
to put on fat. Any system Of manage
ment that keeps the maintenance re-
uqirement low, leaves that much more
to MAKE gains. Nervousness and cx-
citement, too much exercise, discom.
fort from muddy lots, and injury from
horns Of other animals. all increase
the maintenance requirement and les
sen gains. Extremely cold storms in
crease maintenance by increasing the
heat or fuel requirement Of the steers
hut moderately cold, dry weather in
creases gains by sharpening the ap-
petite. A windbreak and well drain
ed lot are usually all that IL needed
In Colorado to insure sufficient
warmth and comfOrt.-Charles l.
