from "Charlot's Revue was one OF
the numbers.

Tomorrow night will be big one
for radio fans. and there will be
many events of unusual interest to
tune in on, so it would pay to watch
the programs closely in order that
the great store of good things on the
air tomorrow night, may not be
missed by anyone. One Of the big
features Of the evening will be the
ringing of the Liberty Bell from
WIP, Philadelphia, at midnight
while most every station is offering
some event of more or less interest,
in horror of the advent of the new

New Years parties, will not miss
anything if they sit at home, listen

STEERS TO BE one of our newest
RAISED IN industries is reviv-
NEW ENGLAND ing one of our old
est New England
started as farming country but as
cheaper and better land opened in
the West, agriculture gravitated to
the plains and New England took to
manufacturing. Land values in the
Northwest declined and agriculture
all but disappeared. Nowhere have
farmers had so hard a time making a
living as in the rocky hills of New
England The valleys have always
been productive but most of New
England has been too hard to farm sue
cessfully The farm land of the val
leys, worked for many generations
now requires much fertilizer and ami.
NAL fertilizer has become very scarce
due to the advent of the automobile.
Meantime land values in the West
have risen and rail rates have in
creased. The combination of circum-
stances has created an opportunity
for the farmers of these bleak hills.
Steers can be raised with little out
side labor. The valleys will buy fer.
tilizer and the markets of the East
will absorb the meat. A preliminary
analysis shows that the hill farmers
of New England can raise cattle and
market them at a good profit in com
petition with Western beef plus the
freight charges to bring it into the
New England markets. Meetings have
been held and several herds are al
ready being groomed as the basis
for the revival of the cattle industry
in New England. Hundreds Of farm
ers are planning to go in for cattle
and the Northeast promises to be-
come important as a meat producing
center. The working of economic law
brings about queer combinations. Per
haps one Of the queerest is that the
automobile should have brought the
steer back to New England.

LIVESTOCK NOTES
ANOTHER ARGUMENT IN FAVOR
OF PASTURES

Nv ''+-'N SNFNN ~ HlElN IN FNEOh
OF PASTURES
Much has been said regarding the
economy of pastures especially for
dairy cattle and sheep. Tests have
shown that an acre OF good pasture
will provide as much feed as an equal
acre OF alfalfa and do It at a less
cost; also that cows or sheep on
pasture will do better than when kept
in dry lots and fed nothing but dry
feeds throughout the year. The latter
fact has always been taken for
granted without any question as to
the reason, but recent investigators
are assigning reason which has
very important bearing upon other
questions of present interest
Mineral Rec 'irements OF Livestock
The G=estion OF the mineral con.
The Delta independent., 1925-03-20

tent of feeds has been a matter OF
Investigation for the past few years,
and while there is still much to learn
in this connection it has been defin-
itely proven that certain minerals are
as essential to all classes of livestock
as proteins, carbohydrates and fats,
and that dairy cows are particularly
heavy users of minerals. cow pro-
ducing 10000 pounds of normal milk
per year requires 10 pounds of min
erals for the milk alone. If this is
not provided in the feed it is taken
from the body of the COW at the cost
of her health or the strength of her
next calf. Pasture grasses furnish an
abundance of the proper minerals for
milk production in form easily as
simulated by the COW, as well as the
other feed elements in the proper
tions to form very nearly balanced
ration for larry cows or breeding
ewes.
Abortions May Be caused by Lack of
:ntrerals.
While there no question but that
the disease known as contagious abor-
ton is responsible for hte greater
part of the loss of calves by prema-
ture birth, it seems to be equally
certain that a lack OF mineral matter
in the feed Of COWS frequently causes
premature birth and even when calv.
es are carried the full time they are
weak and unthrifty If they have not
received the required minerals before
birth. Associated with abortions from
any cause is often the complete ster-
ility of the aborting animal. resulting
in the loss Of many otherwise valu-
able animals The failure to breed is
also common among lot fed cows
even though they are not aborters,
and in the aggregate is nearly as ser
ious from the standpoint OF loss to
the owner as abortion itself The
best information available seems to
indicate that this condition may be
due to a lack OF proper nutrition and
may be corrected by supplying all
the needs OF the cow Good. fresh
pasture more nearly supplies these
needs than any other form OF feed
and does II at a lower cost OF expense
and labor Experiments with large
numbers OF cows have conclusiyely
shown that breeding troubles and
losses from abortions are smallest
after periods Of pasture feeding and
increase after extended periods Of
feeding OF dry feeds
Vitauines.
No one has ever seen vitamines and

they seem to be essential to life and

Why Not Have Pasture7
Pasture saves labor. II furnishes
large amounts OF feed at lowest cost.
