F. F. "A. Plon Program
On Picker's Dancers

have the names of 81 men in
Ohio who lost hand or an arm
in a corn picker in 1948. All of
this happened in a period of one
month. You no doubt will agree
with me when 1 say something
should be done about this situa-
ton.
The Future Farmers of America
have studied this problem and
have decided to conduct a cam
paign which will reach every
corn picker operator in the state.
A fact sheet, operators guide and
decals will be given to very op-
orator.
1t is hoped that every operator,
organization, and newspaper, in
this community will cooperate
with the F. F. A. in reducing, if
not eliminating, accidents involv-
ing the corn picker.

New Vitamin
Cuts Feed Costs
For PoultrYmen.

Better poultry feeds at lower
cost should result from the re-
cent appearance on the market
of vitamin BIZ concentrates, also
called APF concentrates, report
poultry specialists to the Agri-
cultural Extension Service of
Ohio State University.
While attending the annual
meeting of the Poultry Science
Association at Guelph, Ontario,
last week, they discussed these
new concentrates with the agri-
cultural scientists who are con-
Quoting poultry investigations at
the u. S. Department of Agri-
cultures research center, Belts
vile, Md.
Among the scientists present
was DIR. H. r. Bird, who is in
charge of USDA poultry research.
He pointed out that until recently
the only good" sources of vita
min BIZ among feedstuffs were
fish meal, fish solubles, liver
meal, and crab meal. Total supply
of the vitamin from these sources
was inadequate to meet the needs
of growing birds and broilers.
Experiments at Beltsville have
shown, said DR.. Bird, that a
chick diet composed of grains,
soybean meal, alfalfa meal, fish
meal, fermentation solubles, vita
min d supplement, and mineral
supplements can be modified by
replacing all the fish meal with
BIZ concentrate and soybean
meal and that chicks will grow as
well on the modified diet as on
the original.
He did not recommend, how
ever, that feed manufacturers or
The Union County journal. [volume] (Marysville, Ohio) 1875-1951, 1949-08-15

poultrymen eliminate all of the
animal protein supplements from
their formulas. He said that much
more information is needed con-
cerning interrelationships be-
tween vitamin BIZ and other nu-
trients and concerning essential
nitrients that may yet remain un-
In mashes that are well forti-
fled with animal protein supple
ments, partial replacement of
these supplements by BIZ con-
centrate and soybean meal is
justified.
1t is recommended that when a
partial replacement of animal
protein supplements is made,
there be left in the diet of start
ing chicks, broilers, or breeders
at least 40 pounds of fish meal
per ton or at least 120 pounds of
meat meal per ton.

out of breath he whirls around
a-gettin' set to work his ground.
Just after Christmas, seems to
me, he checks DER his machinery,
he stews and fuses round for

What sense is there in rushin'

the winters short enough at best,
why should I sacrifice my rest
when I'm still tired from last

awful jerk to try and set a record
now, no one expects it anyhow.
So I'll just wait a few weeks yet

Farm and Ranch Experiences

ABOUT EIGHT YEARS AGO I
seeded 80 acres of yellow clover at
the rate of about 10 pounds per
acre, with spring wheat as a nurse
crop.
On my ranch here (under irriga-
tion) on the Two Medicine project
in Glacier county, 1 am practicing a
three-year rotation. The first year
after summerfallow, I usually seed
winter wheat, although sometimes /
seed flax or yellow mustard the
following spring. Then the follow
ing year I seed barley or oats to
rotate the crops and with whichever
variety I decide to seed I plant the
yellow clover at the rate of 10
pounds per acre on the second year.
The yellow clover will come up
and grow the same season, some
times to a height of 80 inches, MAX
ing it necessary to windrow the
crops, as the crops cannot be COM
bined standing on account of the
green foliage.
The clover will come up again the

Buy and Keep the Best
To Build Your Herd
By JACK TURNER
BIG Horn County. Wyoming

In the IA years since I started in the
cattle breeding business, some of
my dreams have come true. Last
year I had the grand champion bull
and best pair of bulls at the state
fair and the grand champion and re-
serve champion in the other two
shows entered.
When a breeder raises some ex-
ceptional cattle, and a buyer offers
him a high price for them, it is
mighty hard to say "No", but that's
what you have to do if you want to
keep your herd improving. When I
was just getting started and times
were pretty hard, I was offered $500
a head for the top 10 heifers in the
herd. Instead of taking that offer,
I culled out SO and sold them for
500 each. Sometimes it is a tough
decision to make, but if you have
the future of your herd at heart
there is no other way.
In developing a good herd, the
herd bulls, of course, are of major
importance. I have always bought
bulls which were champions them
selves " out of champion stock.
Even then occasionally an excellent
individual will not cross satisfac-
torily with your particular cow herd.
In that case, waste no time in get
ting rid of all calves that carry that
blood. 1t is better to take a little
loss than to keep the bull and lose
more over a period of years.
I've known breeders who make
the mistake of trying to c~onteract
q weakness by going to the opposite
extreme. If they are trying to avoid
~1ine-backed cattle, they will buy a
red-necked bull, or if they want to
shorten the legs, they buy an ex-
tremely shortlegged type. Unfor-
tunately they seldom revert to the
medium the breeder is seeking. In
stead, he usually gets some of each
kind. He should select exactly the
type he wants to model his herd
after and gradually Gull out the
cows that transmit undesirable
features,

the side delivery rake and regulate
speed to insure an even windrow.
If loose hay is put up ON a ranch,
the figuring becomes more difficult,
but Hitler suggests that all opera
tons be Jumped and the total tom
mage per hour figured as a basis for
paying help.
Base Pay Plus Premium
The combination of base pay plus
a premium for production over a set
minimum was applied to a steady
hand who took care of the steer
feeding program on the ranch. Hitler
decided that good gains and no bloat
should be made worth something
extra to the feeder, so the feeding
costs were figured aside from labor
and a percent of the profit was Of
fered as a bonus. The same idea
could also be applied to the men
handling calving. If a 5 percent loss
is normal, for example, a bonus could
be offered if the losses were lower.
A bonus was given for the steer
feeding operation from November to
March and an overall bonus was al
lowed at the end of the year based
on the total efficiency of the ranch
program including feeding, calving
and haying.
The Angus herd on the ranch now
consists of $50 cows, 20 of which are
registered and 7 registered bulls.
The black cattle are kept well con
tent on 1900 acres of mountain
range. A good well was "witched"
on the range land and a windmill
pumps plenty of water for the cattle.
The water from the well has a high
mineral content which completely
eliminates the need for any type OF
mineral supplement.
Hitler, a former chemical engineer,
came to America from Switzerland
in 1921 and bought the Yellowstone
valley ranch in 1912 after retirement.
Hitler and his wife had always
wanted a ranch and the Swiss-like
valley south Of Livingston made 4
perfect answer to their dreams.

Every 81 for Clover Seed
Paid S. in Extra Yield
By l. M. SMITH, Glacier County

following spring and when it has
reached a height of from 2 to 3 feet
l pillow it under with a large disc
pillow. After blowing l find it eces-
sary to employ an offset disc to cut
the clover into short lengths SO it
will mix with the soil
AS soon as the clover is chopped
up sufficiently to allow a sub-sur-
face type plow to operate the soil,
I cease discing and continue to use
a pillow at regular intervals to con-
troll the weeds until about the first
of September, when / usually seed
winter wheat.
1 believe I can honestly say that
after blowing under my first crop
of yellow clover my yield per acre
increased about Is bushels, and I
have found since that for every dol
lar I have spent for clover seed I
have received in return SIS in in
creased yields.
have also found that if I wish to
hold my summerfallow over winter
to be seeded to spring crop, the roots
and stems of the clover are so tough
that they will not decompose like
straw or other green weeds. When
brought partly to the surface by the
pillow, they are very efficient in pre-
venting wind erosion.
Owing to excessive rainfall this
season, 1 could not get to pillow
my clover under, of which l had
100 acres seeded, until it had reached
a height in places of from A to 5 feet.
So I took a tandem 10-foot disc, driv-
ing angled back and forth across
the field at a diagonal, to lay the
clover down as flat as possible so
that going around the field with the
disc pillow each disc would cut the
clover into short lengths.
In closing 1 will say that after any
farmer has plowed under a heavy
stand of yellow clover and sees the
results in the following crops,h he will
become as enthusiastic as I am about
the use of yellow clover as a fer
tiiizer.

Piece Rate or Bonus Pay Plan
Recommended for Farm Labor
By JERRY LESTER

FARM LABOR SHOULD be paid
on a piece rate basis or with some
kind of a bonus plan for incentive
pay, says Walter B. Hitler, Park
county cattleman.
In these days of an unpredictable
labor supply, just high salaries aren't
enough to attract capable men or to
assure working production. This
principle would allow good workers
to earn a premium wage and also to
increase productivity for the farm
er without any great increase in unit
costs for many types of farm jobs.
The piece rate system can be easily
applied to baled haying operations
where a counter on the machine
gives ar accurate check on the
amount of hay produced.
A decision that such a plan would
aid the help problem is not enough,
however. Hitler has offered a piece
rate scale to baling crews each year
but has had no takers. One two-man
stacking crew worked last year on a
piece rate basis, however, and made
high wages as well as doing a good
job. The reason for farm labor not
accepting the piece rate idea prob
ably is the newness of the plan and
insufficient knowledge of its posi-
bilities from a wage standpoint, he
thinks.
Incentive Pay
The other plan of base rate plus
incentive pay is easier to talk with
help about, according to Hitler, but
many of the men are skeptical OF
even this. Their reasons in this case
are usually that some one some time
promised them such a production
bonus and then never paid off. Or
perhaps they didn't stay ON the job
long enough to rate the bonus but
still expected it when they left.
Under such a program, the farmer
perhaps will put out more money for
help but at the same time will re-
duce his unit costs by higher pro-
duction t.. and a better job will be
done.
Such a system applied to the bal
ing crew makes necessary good
work in moving and raking also,
because if wads are thrown, the
baler doesn't operate properly. The
mower operator should also drivs
