CHEAPER FEEDS FOR
FATTENING STEERS

The question of how soon steers can
be gotten up to q full grain ration II
not as important as how long the
steers can be run profitably on cheap
er feeds In states where corn Ii
cheap and plentiful and two lots Of
steers are to be finished In one winter,
one after the other. the steers are put
weeks and get Is to 20 pounds Of
corn a day, finished In 80 to 100 days
In Colorado, feeds like hay and pulp
are cheap and corn has to be shipped
in, 80 that the practice is to have 4
long feeding period starting with very
little grain and never going over eight
to ten pounds grain a day. The fat
tening process has been nkened to the
blowing up Of football or auto tire,
easy at first, but getting harder as the
process continues
One lot of college experiment steers
fed in 1918, got only alfalfa hay and
wet pulp for the first 40 days of feed
ing yet gained practically two pounds
day. The following period of ITO
days when they received from two to
three pounds Of cotton seed cake and
two TO five pounds Of beet molasses
they only gained 2.41 pounds day.
The cost for the first period was 81
cents per pound gan and for the Pc
Rod they were getting concentrates
the cost was 1872 cents per pound gain
The concentrates are necessary for
finishing, but do most good during the
latter part of the feeding period In
feeding tests in 1905, steers fed pulp
and alfalfa, made 2.43 pounds gain
per day with a five-pound ration Of
grain during the second ive-week Pc
Rod Of feeding and only made 2-55
pounds gain per day the fifth five-week
period on a SO pound grain ration
Had a heavy grain ration been fed
during the early period, the gains
could not have been much larger and
would have been much more e1pen-

officially intimated by most of the

ence of the Sabbatical succession
| creates no serious difficulty.
The American Equal Month Calen-
dar Association of Minneapolis has In
dorsed a calendar which seems to be
the very came thing, except that II
begins with Monday" instead Of Sun
day or Monday" Here's the arrange
ment:
| 1t divides the days of the year into
IS months of rs days each The ad-
| ditional month thus created is to be
inserted between June and July New
| Years day is to have no weekday
name, but to be designated on the cal
endar simply as January Naught.
| When Leap year occurs. the addition
al day will also have no weekday
| name designation. but be known
simply as Leap Year Day" and be
placed between the last day of juno
and the nrst day of July as full
holiday.
The year is to begin with Monday,
the first day of the month. Monday
would not only become the first day OF
every year but also the first day of
every month, every week and every
quarter for all time; and the other
days would follow in natural sequence.
As consequence, calendars would
become unnecessary and In time obso-
lete. because the days and dates auto
matically take care of themselves All
business statistics would be worked
cut upon IL equal monthly periods OF
IS days each. each month containing
exactly the same number of Satur-
dsys and Sundays
The second notwithstanding the
foregoing plans TO be practically the
same thing-is known as the Swiss
Plan" and Ii under serious considera-
ton in Europe The plan:
This involves dividing the year into
IL months. of four quarters of three
months each. the arrangements for the
first quarter to repeat themselves pre-
cisely in each OF the other quarters;
the first month of each quarter to
Gays. and the third month 81 days.
This gives 81 days to each quarter. or
1854 days In all. the remaining day In
ordinary years to be New Years day
and to have no other descriptive title
When Leap year occurs. 1t will be
injected as an additional holiday fol-
lowing December 81. or In the middle
of the year.
In this plan the first month of each
quarter will begin on Monday in ev-
cry year. The second month in every
quarter will always begin on Wednes-
day. and the third month on Friday.
Sunday will never fall on the first. the
fifteenth or the thirtieth day of the
The last day of each quarter
will always fall on Sunday. The 30
day months will have four Sundays
and the 31-day months Ave Sundays.
The number of weekdays in every |
month. therefore, will be rs, and holi- |
days will always fall on the same day |

This plan involves practically no
change excepting the elimination of |

the present method of computation |
and observing them as wholly sep
arate holidays without date.

lodging all around the calendar from

None of these? Well, anyway, let's
take look at the proposed new cal
endarl Maybe 1t does contain some
change that will suit you TO L. It's
sure that the business world Is not
at all satisfied with the present calen-
dar. Really, there seems to be a de-
mand all over the world for a system
less complex and confusing than the
Gregorian calendar, with its UNEQUAL
months and the constantly moving
dates on which the days Of the week
occur
Several new calendars have been
proposed. but only two are being serl-
ously considered. One is an Ameri-
can calendar and Is being promoted
by Prof. Charles F. Marvin, head of
the United States Weather bureau.
Forest Ray Moulton. professor of
astronomy at the University of Chi
eago, and others. Professor Moulton
outlines the new calendar thus:
A month would be added to the cal
endar. though the year would still
have 365 days-or s65k to be exact
under a plan which has been put for
ward and which the League of Ma
lions Is to invite the world to adopt.
The plan. briefly. Is to divide the
year into IS months of % days each
That makes 1854 days. The 365th day
will not belong to any month or week.
and 1t has been suggested that II be
called Humanity day." holiday to
be observed by the people of all ma
lions.
Every four years there would be, of
course. an extra day. This too. would
and week. Under this plan every
month would begin with the same day
of the week, either Sunday or Mon
day
In the same way, a given day of
every month would fall on the same
day of the week. tOr instance, the
fourth of every month would always
be a Wednesday.
Aside from the opposition which ev-
cry change OF new movement newt
ably meets. there are few valid ob1ec-
ttons to this new calendar. The most
important is that with an uneven
number of months. the year cannot be
so conveniently divided into quarters
or halves.
Many business corporations pay In
terest or dividends either quarterly or |
semi-annually. for instance. on the |
18th of January, April. July and Oc- |
tober, or the LIST OF January and July. |
Actually. these dates are not an equal
number of days apart. From January |
1 to July 80 Is only Isl days. while
from July 1 to December 81 Is 1s<
days Under the new calendar 1t
would be possible to divide the year
into four equal quarters. since the
3s5th day Is not included. The only
disadvantage is that the first day OF
each quarter would not fall on the
came day of the month.
Another possible objection Is that,
