prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
While supply and demand are the
principal factors which determine the
market price of a product, there are
a number of other factors which may
be of considerable Importance to the
individual producer or shipper of hay.
Size and weight of bale, character Of
inspection existing at prospective mar
ket, grading and the manner of inter-
preting the grades are among the
more important of these factors, say
marketing specialists Of the bureau of
markets, United States Department of
Agriculture.
Size and Weight Of Bale.
The preference for bales of GER
tain size and weight is so. marked in
some Of the important markets that
premiums ranging from so cents to 81
per ton are paid for bales of the size
and weight desired. Bales may be
roughly classed as small, medium and
large in size. The small and medium
sizes are sometimes designated as one
quarter and One-thrd bales. The small
bales are made in a perpetual press
and are IA or 16 by IS inches, variable
in length but usually about SO inches
long. Medium bales are also made in
perpetual press and are II or IS by
% inches and about SO inches long
Large bales are usually made in box
presses and are about 10 by % by 46
inches.
The weight varies considerably, even
though the bales are of the same size
as hay is pressed under varying con
ditions aud by balers having a wide
range in tension. According to the de-
partment's marketing specialists hay
should be- pressed sufficiently tight
that the wires will hold well, and SO
that the required weights can be load
ed into cars. Difficulty is experienced
in some sections in loading cars to the
minimum weight, because the hay Is
pressed too loosely.
The character of the inspection
service varies considerably in differ
ent markets. Besides the various

LEGUMINOUS HAYS FOR COWS
Corn Silage Is Excellent Feed, but
Not a Balanced One-legumes
Furnish Protein.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The best kinds of dry roughage for
feeding dairy cows in connection with
corn silage or roots are leguminous
hays, such as alfalfa, red, crimson, or
alsike clover, and soy bean or cow
pea hay, in the opinion of experts of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. While corn silage is an ex-
cellent feed, it is not balanced one,
as it does not contain sufficient pro-
TEN and mineral matter to meet fully
the requirements OF the COW. The
leguminous hays, in addition to be-
ing very palatable, tend to correct
this deficiency. They are also among
the best and cheapest sources of
protein.
One or more of these hays can be
grown on practically any farm. In
addition to their value for feeding
purposes, they improve the soil in
which they grow. Hay from Canada
field peas, sown with oats to prevent
the peas from lodging, also makes
an excellent roughage.
Corn slower, sorghum, ETC., also
find good market through the dairy
COW. This class of rOughage is low
in protein, however, and when it is
used the grain ration must be richer
in this element
No positive rule can be laid down
as to the quantity of dry roughage
that should be fed, but from 6 to -
pounds day for each COW, in addition
to silage, will be found satisfactory
In most cases.
When the dry roughage is of poor
quality, such as coarse, woody hay or
a poor grade of cOrnstalks, large por-
ton can often be given to advantage,
allowing the COW to pick out the best
and using the rejected part for bed
ding. With this quantity of dry rough
age the COW will take. according to
