on pastures, SUN
blefields,~ windrowed harvester chaff,
straw and hay.
The spray application is accom-
plished with regular weed or or
ton with about 25 percent water by
weight. 1t has proven most desirable
to spray only enough for feeding
2 or 8 days in advance, using 2 to 8
pounds per head per day for cattle
and A to " pound per head per day
for sheep.
While research data dealing di-
rectly with spraying a urea-molasses
mixture in the above name are
not too plentiful, there have been
numerous experiments both in
America and Europe proving the
value of urea as a source of protein.
Montana Tests
Tests on spraying protein deficient
roughages with urea-molasses mix
lures will be conducted in Montana
this summer at the Havre station,
according to information from the
agricultural experiment station,
Montana State college, Bozeman.
Among the more extensive expert
ments conducted on urea were those
by the Oklahoma agricultural ex-
pertinent station under H. M. Briggs
and associates. Briggs reports that
steers made satisfactory use of the
nitrogen (protein equivalent in urea
when it replaced Is or SO percent of
the nitrogen (protein) of c~ottonseed
meal. Similar results were obtained
wehn urea replaced some of the cot
tonseed meal in supplementary pro-
tein pellets that were fed to fatten-
ing steers in the dry lot or yearling
heifers being wintered on the range.
In further trials with beef cattle
Briggs said: Supplemental feeds
that contained Is percent of their
nitrogen in the form of urea did not
lead to evidences of toxicity ever
when full fed to growing calves.
Pellets
pregnant cows were wintered sat-
is~factorily on a pellet in which 25
percent of the supplemental nitrogen
was supplied by urea.
wearing heifers made slightly
more rapid gains when Is percent OF
the nitrogen supplied by the supple
ment came from urea. This is the
third year such a supplement has
proven as satisfactory as straight
cottonseed meal in wintering heif-
ers."
In lamb feeding, Briggs found that
adding urea to a basal ration of low
protein prairie hay increased the ap-
parent digestibility of hay nutrients
He also reported that metabolisn
tests with pelleted feeds deriving
one-fourth of their total nitrogen
from 4 percent urea in the formul;
permitted about the same storage o
: nitrogen as with cottonseed meal
Some indication has been found il
other experiments that urea is util
lied less efficiently by ~fatteninI
lambs than by growing calves, how
ever.
Dairy Cattle
In feeding urea to dairy cattle
I. w. Rupel and other agriculture
scientists in Wisconsin compared re
= tons containing urea with Ensee
oil meal and found the urea was a
equally effective source of nitrogel

Dairy Cattle


In feeding urea to dairy cattle,
I. w. Rupel and other agricultural
scientists in Wisconsin compared ra-
tons containing urea with hnseed
oil meal and found the urea was an
equally effective source of nitrogen.
They concluded that urea should not
be fed to exceed about l percent Of
the dry matter of the ration or 3 per-
cent of the concentrate mixture.
E. G. Owen, an English research
scientist, found that dairy cattle
when fed urea in the concentrate
ration in an amount equal to 80 per-
cent of the protein, corresponding to
Is percent of the total protein in
take, produced the same amount of
milk as when blood meal was used
as a protein supplement.

State Forests To
Yield Christmas Trees

Some 10000 Christmas trees will
come out of Garrett and Allegany
county woodland plantations as re-
suit Of thinning" operations by the
State Department of Forests and
Parks, according to William A. Parr,
district forester.
Last year, the first that the state
sold Christmas trees, total of 1880
we're sold to individuals and whole
salers. Harvesting for this years crop
Of eight-year-old trees began on Tues
day.
The state will realize an average
o, SO and IS cents for smaller size
trees and perhaps dollar for the
.arger size, Parr said. The money is
20 be used for further reforestation
work.
Parr said farmers and others who
own sizable plots of submarginal land
could plant trees and make good in
come from this type of business.
He added that several persons al
ready have contacted him. H. c.
buckingham, state forester, and A.
R. Bond assistant state forester, will
check the Keyser Ridge and Accident
Plantations in this county which will
BE- the main plantations for thinning
this year.

U. S. Soldier Writes Of Conditions in Germany

cupation brought an increase in
educational and cultural activi-
ties in West Germany. Music,
literature, movies, the legiti-
mate theatre, and art exhibi-
tions are all playing an impor-
tant part in helping the Ger
mans to achieve a normal (and
supposedly democratic) outlook
on life.
"Newsprint ALLEGATIONS were
removed last fall in the u. S.
Zone. The immediate result was
that most newspapers increased
the number Of their editions,
and many papers in large cities
began to publish local editions
for nearby towns. Today any
body in the Western Zone
can subscribe to any Ger
man newspaper. Last spring
there was an international press
exhibition at Munich designed
to show the development and
strength of a free press. It was
attended by 10000.
''The publishing business, too,
has been recovering in the last
year or so. Translations of many
American books are seen in the
bookstores.
Numerous conferences have
been held by German educators
to discuss problems of ele-
mentary and secondary educa-
tion. What is hoped for is legis-
lation providing free tuition
through secondary schools, free
textbooks and materials, and
the abolition of the "two-track
The Chapel Hill weekly., 1949-11-25

system" Under this system all
German children go to a tut
tion-free elementary school for
four years, after which the few
who can afford to pay tuition
and can pass examinations at
tend secondary schools. Children
of poor families or those who
fail to pass secondary school en-
trance examinations,A attend
elementary school four more
years.
1T seems to me the greatest
error of the Occupation was the
division of Germany. If there
has been one consistent tendency
in German history, it has been
the idea of unification. That is
why today great danger lies in
the Soviet promises of a united
Germany under Russian leader
ship. A divided and disrupted
Germany cannot be a democra-
tic Germany. Democracy can
live only where there is economic
security. This does not exist to-
day in Germany. Therefore, it
is hopeless to expect to de-
mocratize Germany under pres
ent conditions"

Weiner May Break Record

Art Weiner, the University's
famous football end, has a good
chance to break the all-time
national record for pass recep-
tion in a single season in the
Virginia game, The record is
held by Barney Poole of Missis-
sippi, who caught So passes in
1947. Weiner has caught 48 so
far this year. He needs FIVE to
break the record. He has aver
aged six per game in the eight
games he has played in this
year.
