Satisfactory Ration to
Produce Baby Beeves

Beef cattle Investigations conducted
by the animal husbandry department
of the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege show that fairly satisfactory
baby beef can be produced on ra-
ton consisting of cane silage, shelled
corn. and no alfalfa hay. The calves
fed this ration gained 2.0S pounds per
head per day for 1877 days.
The high degree of finish and econ
omy of gains, according to the re-
suit of a second experiment are de-
termined by the length of time linn
tied amount of alfalfa hay is fed with
cane silage, shelled corn, and cotton
seed meal The longer a limited
amount of alfalfa is fed with this ra-
ton the greater the finish and economy
Of gain.
Another test showed that alfalfa
alone is satisfactory roughage to
feed with shelled corn in fattening
baby beef for market in so far as gains
are concerned.

Soy Beans Are Superior
as Protein Supplement

Cracked soy beans are equal or
slightly superior to linseed oilmeal as
protein supplement for dairy cows.
After three separate trials with this
new feed, investigators at the Iowa ex-
pertinent station have reached the
above conclusion.
Furthermore, they demonstrated that
soy beans do not cause scours under
the conditions existing in the expert
ment. The basal ration consisted Of
corn silage, alfalfa hay, cracked corn
and ground oats. Roughage was fed
according to the capacity Of the cows
and the grain mixture according to
production.
No tendency In the beans to become
unpalatable over long feeding periods
was observed so long as daily allow
ance of four pounds was not exceeded.
When the price for soy bean seed
gets lower and reasonably large acre
ages are planted, soy beans can be ex-
tensively used.
Soy bean oilmeal. which Is the prod
uct left after oil extraction, was also
tested at the Iowa station. It's value
was found equal to that of linseed oil
meal. The relative prices of the two
feeds will determine which Is the bet
ter to buy.
Planted with corn for silage, soy
beans did not show any value, accord
ing to the Iowa tesla Work done so
far indicates that corn silage Is of
practically the same value as corn-bean
silage for the production of milk and
butterfat The tonnage per acre showed
an increase of $50 per cent where the
two crops were grown together, com
pared with corn alone. The costs for
seed and seeding largely Offset the adj
vantage in tonnage, however, making
straight corn silage practically as eco
nomical as corn-bean silage.
In the first trial the percentage of
beans in the silage was about and
the second %. No advantage was noted
in the increased percentage. There was
practically no difference In the palata.

Early Oats Good as
Alfalfa Nurse Crop
Most Satisfactory When Cut
in Green or Dough State.

"There is really no best way to put
In alfalfa" says Professor shepperd
of the North Dakota Agricultural coll
lege. at all depends on the fertility
of your soil, whether your soil Is
sariy, loan, clay loan, free Of weeds
Especially such weeds as quack grass,
foxtail and pigeon grass) also, wheth-
er you have the time, the tools and the
inclination to do all the things neces-
sary to best protect your little alfalfa
plants under all conditions.
''In certain soils, there isn't enough
plant food or sufficient moisture to
take care of the needs of growing a
full-sized nurse crop and ripening 1t
ready for harvest, and at the same
time supply the necessary plant food
and moisture for the alfalfa plants.
They have to send their roots deep
enough into the ground so that they
can get moisture in sufficient amounts
to supply the need when the nurse
crop is removed and the sun shines
directly on the little alfalfa plants dur
ing the hot, sunshiny period of harvest
time.
"Of all the nurse crops early oats at
the. rate of two pecks to one bushel
per acre with the alfalfa and then cut
ting the oats green or in the dough
stage for hay, have given most salts
faction. 1t gives them shade In their
early weeks of growth, and it keeps
weeds and grass from starting and
crowdlng out the alfalfa. Also, by re-
moving 1t before 1t ripens the mois-
ture that would be needed to ripen the
grain is conserved and not passed OF
into the air by the evaporation proc
ess. A light seeding of about two
pecks of oats to the acre is good
protection for the little alfalfa plants
from the blowing Of sand
Barley seeded at the rate of one
bushel to the acre on soils suited for
barley has proven to be an excellent
nurse crop, AS rule, it does not lodge
as easily as oats, ripens early and ex-
cellent yields have been secured of
from % to 81 bushels on different
farms where only bushel of barley
was used and seeded"

kRM EACTN;

Frequent and shallow cultivation
will keep the garden coming along in
good shape.
Overlooking is bad for the calf. A
good rule is always to keep the calf
little hungry.
A garden free from weeds not only
produces more vegetables but is
sight worth seeing.
Because wood Is so useful trees must
be felled Because wood is SO useful
trees should be planted.
In a number of instances very in
furious insect pests have been In a
measure controlled by introduced
parasites.
The herd bull should run in pasture
at least a part of the summer. The
exercise will be a fine thing for him
and the succulent green grass will
"cool him out" and be a great relief
from the dry feed he has probably
been receiving for many months.
Cultivation of corn and other row
crops, in excess OF that required to
control weeds and keep the surface
soil In a granular condition, is not
necessary or advisable Deep cult
walton prunes the roots Of corn plants
and may decrease the yield, especial
~ If deep cultivation is practiced late
in the season.

Keep Bees Busy
to Make Money
Remove Filled Supers as
Soon as Possible and Put
in Empty Ones.

The busy" bee Is not nearly so in
dustrious as he has been pictured by
his admirers. In fact, he has some
very human qualities. de works when
there is an incentive to work. and he
has been known to loaf on the job
dreadfully when he has gotten up
enough honey to keep him through the
winter.
The bee would not contribute much
to mans sweet tooth II he was not
persuaded to do so through intelligent
handling, and through fear Of Starva-
ton. 4 hive Of bees can be kept at
work through most Of the summer If
you keep this fear constantly before
the workers.
Quit When Full.
Under the old system Of hiving
good swarm seldom produced more
than 10 to 20 pounds of honey sea-
son for the keeper. This was due to
the fact that when Mr.. Bee got his
house full of honey, he quit working.
Since beekeepers adopted the sectional
hive with supers holding small pound
frames, the records of production of
single hive have constantly grown until
beekeepers say that In good seasons
they sometimes run 200 pounds of
honey to the hive. Certainly GO to 80
pounds is an average yield.
The point is to keep continual
watch on each hive during the honey
flow and to remove the filed supers
as fast as possible, putting in empty
ones. If you don't do this, you are
losing just so much return from the
bees. Oftentimes to delay doing 1t at
the right time, finds the bees out of
the motion" and they will continue to
loaf.
By planting alsike clover for mid
summer feeding and even for late sum-
mer, the bees can be kept working
right along during hot weather, and
they can finish off on buckwheat or
some other late crop. Buckwheat
honey, however, does not appeal to the
market as clover honey. If there is
any considerable planting of sweet
clover near by, either in fields or grow
ing wild along the roadsides, it will
keep the bees busy until well into the
fall And sweet clover Is one Of the
best and clearest honey-makers you
can find.
Prices for Honey.
Last season honey was bringing bee
keepers so cents a pound right at the
local markets. In the larger cities, the
price was even more favorable. And
every pound that the bees can be en-
Outraged to produce Is just that much
more velvet for the beekeeper. 1t
pays to have the extra supers all ready
to be slipped into place as needed
The big honey flow always comes with
rush and the way the bees get it in
often catches the beekeeper unawares,
especially so if he Is new hand at the
business. Constant prodding is good
for Mr.. Bee 1t will help him to earn
the right to the reputation he las en-
joyed so long.

Spray for Vegetables

Arsenate of lead is better than
paris green as an application on veg
etables and vines such as the potato,
cucumber and bean, because 1t will
stick to the plant longer. Paris green,
however, will kill the bugs as quickly
and as readily as arsenate of lead.
Arsenate of lead should be used at
the rate of one teaspoonful to two gal
Ions of water, well stirred or at the
rate of / pound to so gallons Of wa
ter for arsenate of lead and one-half
pound Of paris green to so gallons Of

Appropriations were provided for
the states governmental departments
and activities, including the univer-
sity and normal schools. The univer-
sity received $1,5000O0 additional for
new buildings and funds were provided
for similar work at the normals The
purposes for which funds could be ap-
propriated by the emergency board
were restricted to certain emergencies
including calamities.
Among the more important appro-
priations were the following approx
mate amounts:
University of Wisconsin, 100000
for two years.
State normal schools, 100000 for
two years.
Charitable and penal institutions,
100000 for two years.
Conservation, 100000 annually.
