Comparisons of Summer
and Winter Rations

An interesting deduction from
the self-feeding experiment in West
Virginia is that heifers that make
gains above normal in winter will
make gains below normal the fol-
lowing summer on pasture. In four
comparisons of three groups of
heifers-one group for two pasture
seasons-that were self-fed grain
and given free access to roughage,
the average winter gain was 1863
pounds per head, whereas the same
heifers gained only $50 pounds on
pasture. No grain was fed on pas
ture. Similar heifers, handled,
averaged 154 pounds per head for
the winter feeding periods and 100
pounds per head for the pasture
season. No grain was fed on pas
ture. 1t should be remembered,
however, that the handled groups
were we'll fed. 1t would be mistake
to deduce from these figures that
poor winter feeding will be over
taken on good pasture. If calf
is stunted by poor winter rations,
it cannot make as good use of pas
ture as the more vigorous, we'll
fed calf.

LIGHT FEEDERS
WIN IOWA TRIAL
Made Cheapest Gain and
Left Biggest Profit.

Baby beeves made the cheapest
gain and left the greatest profit in
the feeding trials at Iowa State col
lege last winter and spring. In
these tests three lots of steers were
used. One lot consisted of two
year-olds that averaged 693 pounds
when the feeding started. A lot
of yearlings averaged 615 pounds
and the calves averaged 324 pounds.
The calves gained 2.43 pounds a
day and put on 100 pounds gain at
a cost of S10.0S. The yearlings re-
quired $13.S9 worth of feed TO gain
100 pounds in weight, and they
gained only 2.11 pounds a day. The
twO-year-olds gained 2.1S pounds 8
day and ate $14.4S worth of feed to
gain 100 pounds.
The baby beeves, after having
the same kinds of feeds for the
same length of time, showed a re-
turn above feed cost of $33.45 a
head. The yearlings had a return
of $22.1l and the twOyear-oIds
S21.31 above feed cost when mar
keted at the end of the 24O-day
feeding period. These feeding tests
revealed that feeders can afford to
pay a higher price for lightweight
calves as the gains during the feed
ing period are so much cheaper.
Other tests carried on at the
same time showed that one lot of
steers which was fed iron oxide
with the regular mineral mixture
showed the best gain of any of the
lots used in the mineral tests. They
gained 2.633 pounds a day and 100
pounds of gain cost $11.47. The
mineral mixture used was 1897 per
cent of special bOne-meal, 1897 per
cent of ground limestone, and .O6
per cent of potassium iodide. To
this standard mixture was added 2
per cent of iron oxide.
Experiments also showed that
barrel salt gave best results early
in the feeding trials as the cattle
had just come off the range and
consumed larger quantities than
later. Block salt was found sat
isfactory during the final months of
the feeding period.

Members Found to Be No Worse
Than Other Undergraduates,
Survey Shows.

New York.-The morals Of col
lege girls and boys do not suffer
from membership in sororities or
fraternities, despite the headwag
gings of unfriendly critics.
Such is the conclusion of Rita s.
Halle, who has just completed a
survey of the Greek-letter societies
from coast to coast. The verdict
is based on observation of thou
sands of students, on talks with
officials of the interfraternity con-
ference and the Pan-Hellenic asso-
citation, and on the reports of col
lege authorities whose duty it is to
watch over the moral life of under
graduates.
Admitting that there are evils in
the fraternity system, and that
some of these evils are grave, Mrs.
Halle declares in a report of her
survey published in Good Housekeep-
ing that she has failed to find any
evidence that there is any real diff
ference between fraternity and
nOnfraternity moral standards eX-
cept as such differences are found
everywhere between the groups
who have money and leisure and
those who have to work hard for a
living"
She found that 90 per cent Of the
fraternities encourage a moral life
in their ritual or constitution; 90
per cent prohibit liquor in their
houses; 90 per cent prohibit gam
bling, and 90 per cent emphasize
the virtues of honesty and integrity.
while it would be ridiculous to
say that the fraternities all live up
to the high standard set in these
rituals" Mrs. Halle reports, st is
true that they are approaching
them more and more under in
creased competition for the best
men, the demands of rhe universi-
ties, and the fine influence of the
interfraternity conference"
The drawbacks of the fraternity
system, her report says, are the ere

Care of Lambing Ewes
in Winter and Spring

D. E. Ruck of the New Hamp-
shire station gives the following
about winter and spring care of
ewes.
Shelter for ewes in the months
just before lambing time is neces-
sary, but it is not a good practice to
keep them in a closed barn, unable
to exercise. A good yard in which
sheep can keep dry footing is
one of the best aids to bringing
the ewes through the late winter
season in good condition.
In the house or shed about Is
square feet of floor space is re-
quired by the average eve. The
real need of the shed is for protec-
tion from storms, the fleece affords
sufficient warmth when dry. There
must be plenty of ventilation with
out drafts. If the quarters are airy
and comfortable the sheep will re-
sort to them whenever necessary.
AS lambing time draws near, the
ewes should be closed in during the
night so that lambs do not be-
come chilled.
Feeding practices will depend on
the condition as fat eve does not
need as much grain as thin one.
Best available hay-either alfalfa
or clover-should be fed just be-
fore lambing. Thin ewes will re-
Quire about one pound of grain
daily. A good mixture is one of 80
pounds cOrnmeal or hominy, 80
pounds of ground oats, 20 pounds
of bran, and 10 pounds of oil meal.

tions from actual conversations
how great is the gulf between the
rulers and the ruled and how wide
ly their expectations of the future

Here are few of the quotations: ::
Everything is bad now and we
cannot get anything at ALL" said a
worker in an agricultural implement
factory. I'VE cannot get boots and
we cannot get clothes. We
cannot obtain food and many are
too weak to work. Eight hours is
my day, but many seasonal work
ers do ten and twelve hours"
Speaking of what the five years
plan is doing for Russia, a miner
from the Donetz basin said:
"A year or two ago we could get
enough to eat, but now nothing at
all. Now they are sending all our
grain abroad and building factories.
Why cannot they give us food and
boots and clothing? get eighty

The five year plan will not succeed.
Tor we cannot stick it out any
longer. You see if there will not be

Nor was this miner the only
Russian who was so angry with
present conditions as to speak of
an uprising, for other citizens es-
pecially in the South, spoke of rev.

COLLEGE Students MORALS NOT HURT BY FRATERNTIEs

the part of the 'ins" and of inferi-
ority on the part of the "outs," the
heartbreak suffered by students
who fail to receive invitations to
join, the encouragement of extrava-
gance, and the establishment of an
unfair political influence in campus
activities.
Against these are balanced the
aid the fraternities provide in
solving the housing problem, the So
cial advantages to members, the
fostering of friendships in college
and afterwards. and the training
of girls and boys in living in a
small. friendly household.
So far as morals are concerned,
she finds one of the greatest diff
culties to be the gay-dog alumnus,
who returns to his fraternity house
to visit and celebrate. But he. she
says, is being brought to heel by
sober alumni and by the national
organizations.
