substation superintendent, put the
cheapest and fastest gains on beef
cattle when used in place of corn
silage in an otherwise similar ration
during 1947 feeding trials at the
station.
Three different rations were COM
pared in the tests, according to
Paules. The most efficient of the
three was based on the wet beet
pulp and rolled barley. Composed
of the pulp and the barley, plus alf-
alta, beet tops, and salt, it gave an
average daily gain per animal of
1922 pounds at a feed cost per 100
pounds of gain of $12.21.
Two other rations which gave
somewhat less favorable results
were respectively ID wet pulp and
ground barley, plus alfalfa, beet
tops, and salt, 2.578 pounds of daily
gain and $12.73 feed cost per 100
pounds of gain, and (2) corn silage
and ground barley, plus alfalfa, beet
tops, and salt, 1886 pounds of daily
gain and 1882 feed cost.
Paules said that 80 animals di-
vided into three lets were used in
the feeding trials.

SOME EVIDENCE that medium
wool range ewes will produce a
larger lamb crop than either fine
or coarse wool ewes is reported by

A comparison made in n large
Wyoming flock showed that 100 me-
dunn. wool ewes had produced 127
lambs weighing a total of LAC

for 100 fine wool ewes was 118
lambs weighing 1869 pounds, while
100 coarse wool ewes produced liz
