Of infection averaging $50. F7ocks
tested 2 years showed less than half
the percentage Of infection the sec
ond time than appeared in the first
test. In addition, "a private focks
were tested.
"The encouraging feature of the
results so far, is the decrease in the
percentage of infection shown"
says DR.. c. p. Fitch, of the Univer-
sity. Having the test conducted
by local veterinarians appears very
satisfactory and enables testing
hens much more cheaply and extern
sively than would otherwise be pos
sible. Experience thus far indi-
Gates that the control of pullorum
disease will soon be a practical
success. It's general adoption no
doubt will be retarded by the eco
nomic depression, but this will be a
good thing, as it will give veterin-
arians time to perfect the method
and to acquaint poultrymen with
it's most efficient application" DR..
Fitch says.

Peters explained that the results
apply only for cattle bought.

Peters explained that the results
apply only for cattle bought.
Forty-eight steer calves, divided
into four lots of II each, were fed
the same ration, from November 6
to June IT. When purchased last
fall, the lot 1 calves graded as
choice feeder steer calves, lot 2 as
good, lot medium, and lot 4 COM
mon.
A surprising part of the results
was that the medium and common
lots actually gained faster than the
choice and good lots and in doing
so consumed less feed. With feed
prices charged at 40 cents bushel
for shelled corn, $50 a ton for lin
seed meal, $14 ton for alfalfa hay,
and 50 ton for prairie hay, the
margin per steer over feed cost
was $4.65 per head for the common
calves and $3.50 for the medium.
Both of the higher lots failed to
pay for their feed, the loss per head
of the choice steers being $1.14 and
that on the good steers $1.15. Com
pared on the returns made per bu-
shell of corn, the lots ranked the
same way. The common steers re-
turned SO cents per bushel, the med
ium 46.5, the good 37.42, and the
choice 1882.
One of the big reasons why choice
and good feeder cattle fail to pay
better when purchased for fatten-
ing is that the demand for this
class of steers is so great the cost
is pushed up out of line with the
probable selling price of the same
steers when fat. On the other hand,
no one likes to feed steers of the
lower grade and the purchase price
is correspondingly low.
It was pointed out that if low
grade cattle are to be fattened to
advantage, they must be very care
fully selected and then be fed just
as we'll as steers of the higher
grades.

Pays Better to Buy LOw-Grade
Feeders

That the man who buys cattle to
fatten, frequently can make more
by buying those grading medium"
or common" than by buying
"choice" or good" feeders, was the
conclusion from feeding expert
ments at the Minnesota Agricul-
tural Experiment Station, reported
on Cattle Feeders Day June %, at
University Farm, st. Paul. These
results agree with those from SINH
lar trials last year. Cattle men
should not infer that there is any
argument for raising the poorer
grade of cattle. Professor w. H.
