Grind the Roughage

The Maryland experiment station
mas conducted quite an extensive test
on ground roughage They report that
cows fed on ground hay produced 1.31
per cent more milk and 4.S4 per cent
more butterfat than they did when
fed on hay not ground Cows refused
nearly 80 per cent of the unground
hay and refused only about II per
cent of the ground hay. However,
considering the cost of grinding the
hay, the profit was negligible and not
sufficient to recommend the practice.
On the other hand, of course, there
have been some more favorable re-
ports on the grinding of alfalfa. The
Pennsylvania station reports that the
nutrients in ground hay are slightly
more digestible with the exception of
crude fiber. The Walker Gordon farms
report rather favorably on their plan
which is to draw alfalfa green. then
to dry it artifcially and grind it i'm
mediately. 1t is then stored in bags

Boutfours System of
Feeding Dairy Cattle

Up in Canada, a practice that is at
tracing attention is the Boutflours
system of feeding dairy cattle. This
system calls for material reduction
in the total roughage fec and the
elimination of succulent roughage. Un-
der this system the dairy COW is not
only fed grain ration that is or 6
per cent higher in protein than the
common Is per cent protein ration,
but it includes variety of protein
rich feed, the theory being that the
variety insures higher consumption, of
feed as well as rapid and econ, al
gains.
Another feature of this system is a
g.nerous ration fed the dry cow for
SIX weeks prior to freShening. This
is called the "steaming up" process.
Special attention is also given to the
Development of the calf and hc'fer,
the object being to build a good ma
chine by the use of lots of good rough
age supplemented with the necessary
grain.
Many dairymen are very skeptical
of such system because it is so diff
ferent from the common methods. 1t
is pointed out that the breeder has
sought for big roomy cows capable
of handling much feed. Advocates of
this new system point out that even
with big cows probably more bulk and
fiber has been fed than they could
utilize efficiently.

FINDS MILK COSTS
FROM 1000 COWS
Showing Difference Between
Profit and Loss.

Declaring that the dairy herd i'm
provement associations are often re-
sponsible for the difference between
profit and loss in dairy farming, Ivan
McKellip, extension specialist in ami
NAL husbandry at the Ohio State uni
versity, points out that the associa-
tions are making it easy to practice
selective breeding. to eliminate low
producers, and to feed individual cows
according to their production records.
Mr.. McKellip states that last year
the II 900 Ohio cows in the dairy herd
improvement associations averaged
1857 pounds of milk and 800 pounds
of butterfat. They made $136 above
feed costs, which amounted to 500,
and they produced a product worth
1920.
The feed cost for 100 pounds of
milk was S1.22 and the feed cost for
producing one pound of butterfat was
2S.S cents. The average labor income
from the average association COW was
approximately 800 and the average
labor income per hour per COW was
about 60 cents.
According to dairy herd improve
ment figures, the dairy farmer milking
an average herd of cows and getting
the average market price for the milk
is making only six cents an hour for
the time he spends with his herd. This
is "a cents less per hour than the
herd association member makes.
Dairy herd improvement associations,
McKellip declared, have been operat-
ing in the state for the past 16 years
The GAINESVILLE association in Bel
mont county is the oldest. 1t is no
longer an experiment but decided
help in keeping yearly milk, butter
fat, feed, and cost records on each
COW in the association. Knowing each
cows production, these men have been
able to increase the production of
their cows in eight years from 27O
pounds of butterfat to $50 pounds of
butterfat.
AS ordinarily conducted, he stated,
a dairy herd Improvement association
is an organization of between 20 and
80 dairymen who comparatively en-
ploy a man to keep production, feed,
and income records of their cows.

amazed at American motorists who

ROughage Question

Is wet beet pulp favored with mo-
lasses a better succulent roughage for
dairy cows than corn silage? The
Ohio station has found that it will
produce about "a per cent more but
terfat and 90 per cent more milk but
that this increase is not enough to
justify the additional cost of the ra-
ton. Where corn or grain sorghum
silage cannot be produced at a rea-
sOnable cost per ton, the wet beer
pulp-molasses combination may well
ia considered.

Rock gardeners searching for choice
plants should not overlook the lilies,
for there are several low-growing

such gardens One Of the best is the
Siberian coral lily, which rarely ex-
