Small Per Cent of Dairy
Cows Returning Profit

Lincoln.-Of the more than 23,-
100000 dairy cows i'll the United
States, but small per cent return a
profit to their owners at the end OF
each year, according to the Univer-
sity OF Nebraska agricultural college,
compiling figures from reports re-
ceivcd from all states. One cow in
the world is known to have an Off
cial record of more than $4,000
pounds of milk produced in one year.
There are hundreds of cows that
have produced more than 10000
pounds of milk in year under Off
cial supervision and there are thou
sands of cows that have produced at
least half this amount, yet there are
millions that are consuming as much
feed and require as much labor as
those that are producing 10000
pounds or less year," says state

Deuel. County Wheat
Not Injured by Wind

The report that strong winds de-
stroycd wheat crops in Deuel. county,
Nebraska, was denied by William
Deinert, resident of Emerald, Neb.,
after an investigation of crop condi-
tions.
"The stand Of wheat is exception
ally good" said Deinert, "and if
anything it appears that the wheat is
too thick on the ground and the sur.
prising thing is that they claim they
only sowed half bushel to three
pecks OF seed to the acre"
Accompanied by other residents Of
Chapel and Emerald, Deinert said
he made a tour OF the county in
specting crops.
1--WE were all agreeably surprised
at the fine prospects for wheat
throughout the county. The wheat
was as good and even better than
wheat in Lancaster county. Take it
all in all it looked like anything but
failure of wheat in Deuel. county
to us."

Sudan Grass Valuable
as AlSeason Pasture

Lincoin.-A small acreage Of sudan
grass will carry more stock through
out the season than any other pas
ture crop, with the possible cxcep-
ton of sweet clover, and makes good
pasture when others have dried out,
says the University OF Nebraska ag-
ricultural college. adding that all
kinds OF stock like it and do well
on it."
"Since sudan was introduced,
about Is years ago, it has become
more widely used each year. both as
a pasture and hay crop" states the
college. "but its greatest value in
Nebraska is its use as supplementary
pasture.
THE seed is cheap and it is as
easy to grow as millet, it being han-
died in about the same way. 1t has
been known to cause some poisoning,
but so far, no reports of that kind
have come from Nebraska.
ut may be sown with the ordi-
nary grain drill at the rate Of 20 to
Is pounds per acre, any time from
the present up to July l. The seed
bed should be placed and well
worked down before seeding and
should not be pastured until it has
about six weeks growth.
Sudan is regarded as a good hay
crop and it will generally make two
cuttings, yielding from two to three
tons per acre. The hay is palatable
and has feeding value about equal
to timothy. The greatest feeding
value will be obtained if it is cut
just before it is in full bloom. Farm
ers who have winter killed wheat
may find this a good catch crop"

Show Good Profit
Second Year Of Experimental
Feeding Shows Similar
Results 10 First.

Lineeln.-Four groups OF expert,
mental steers sold on the Omaha
market by the University OF Ne.
bfsska agricultural college topped
the market in some grades and in all
classes showed . wide range OF
profit. The groups consisted OF ?
and J.yeaf-old steers, yearlinss and
calves. which had been on a soo-day
trial in which records were kept 10
ascertain the rate and efficiency OF
gain OF animals OF different ages.
The standard Nebraska ration Of
shelled corn and alfalfa were fed TO
all groups. the calves selling at top
for the week at $500" SAYS the col.
lege. The yeaflings sold for $3.50.
the 2.yeaf-olds for $40. and the
5.year-olds for $500. The smaller
animals were much more popular
with the buyers on foot and likewise
produced more desirable eafeasses at
the coolers.
The results obtained in this eS.
pertinent concur closely with those
obtained a year ago under similar
tests. and the college expects to re-
peat the trial again next year. Con-
siderinR that younger cattle make
more efiieien, use OF their feed and
at the same time their eareasses pro-
dueing more popular beef. il would
appear that the beei.making indus
try is about to be reorganized in the
west on nearly the same basis as the

The 3-year-old steers made the
greatest daily gain-about 2 2-3
pounds per day-aceording TO the
college. although the calves showed
the greatest profit. s22.ls per head.
Profit on the other lots was S7.l3

more iayorably enhanced by the fact
that the crop virtually is assured.

Of all fruits indicates tha, the pro-
duetion OF 1919. the largest in recent
years. should be equalled and pos
sibly eNeelled," says the chief OF the
bureau.
Apples Come First.
The commercial apple crop is the
largest fruit industry in Nebraska,
although small fruits contribute
tidy sum TO the individual growers
in favorable years. The fruit section
OF the state, while located chiefly in
the eastern and southeastern parts OF
the state. also extends to sections
around North Platte. McCook and
kenesaw.
Last years farm and commercial
apple crop totaled l25,000 bushels,
compared with 10000 bushels in
1920 and l.l25,000 bushels in 1919.
according TO records OF the bureau.
The commercial crop last year was
placed at 1900 barrels, compared
with 10000 barrels in 1920 and
2lS,000 barrels in 1919. Should pres
ent indications support greater
yield this year. crop OF more than
million and quarter bushels is in
prospect.
Small fruits. which include straw

currants and other berries. netted
1921 quarts in 1920, produced from
l,l47 acres, the records show.
Cherries Are Second.
Cherries are second in importance
in the Nebraska fruit industry, the
bureau states, and this year show in
dcations OF setting new record in
production. Pears, plums, peaches,
apricots and grapes are OF minor i'm
portance so far as commercial crop
is concerned.
To illustrate the large decrease in
the number OF fruit bearing trees in
Nebraska in the period between 1909
and 1920, the bureau quotes figures
to show that compared with 1887 900
trees bearing fruit in 1909. there were
96l 900 in 1920, or a loss of more
than half in number.
with the campaigns being waged
by various agricultural societies and
institutions, looking toward the bet
ter care and development of fruit
trees and vines, however, much OF
the loss sustained should be returned
within the next few years." the bu-
reau declares. frank diseases and
lack Of proper cultivation were the
prime causes III the great loss OF Ne
