Margaret Sullavan, Samuel Gold

for q pretty penny.

Straw as Feed for Live
Stock for Fall, Winter

Straw from grain threshing, as
we'll as small grain hay or sheaf
grain, may we'll be widely utilized
in corn belt live stock feeding this
fall and winter, or at least until
emergency forage crops and pas
lures develop, says WallaceS'
Farmer.
The most satisfactory results from
straw as feed for dairy cattle are
obtained when it is used to take the
place of only one daily hay feeding.
The intake of straw can be facili-
tated by increasing the palatability
with molasseS. Either cane or beet
molasses, diluted with one to two
parts of water and sprinkled over
poor hay or straw, will help. Beet
molasSeS is more laxative than cane
molasses and therefore should be
fed more sparingly at first.
Straw probably is most valuable
as a roughage for idle horses and
for Wintering beef COWS. Straw also
can be fed to sheep and to working
horses to some extent, but it is i'm
portant to add enough protein sup
plementS and concentrates TO sup
ply the needed elements that are
lacking in straw.

Those soils which produce the

the College of Agriculture, Univer-
Sity of Illinois.

the bulletin states. However, on
the more productive soils yields
from the plots without treatment
were several times as great as any
increase that could be attributed to
soil treatment.
despite this fact, on each field
there was found at least one prac-

EIent
Whether the crop-producing ca
pacity of the less productive soils
can be raised to the present pro-
ductive levels of the better soils
seems doubtful. The gray and yell
low soils after 25 years have po-
tential levels only about one-half the
level Of the better untreated soils. "
Since 1876 when the Morrow plots,
oldest soil experiment field in Amer
lea, were established, the College of
Agriculture has been studying the
soils of the state to learn practices
which would bring about more eff
ficient production, lower the cost of
production, improve the quality of
crops grown on the soil and main
tain soil fertility.
With the Morrow plots located on
the grounds of the agricultural col
lege at Urbana, a number of out
lying fields have since been estab-
lished throughout the state to study
soil types in each section. During
the past years crop season, 26 per
manent fields were in operation.
