USDA Looking For
Twin Beef Calves

Identical twin calves Of any beef
or dual-purpose breed are needed
by the L. s. Department Of Agri-
cultures Bureau of Animal Indus
try to continue calf-feeding studies
started in 1850
Breeders within 300 miles of
Washington, d. c., who have identi-
cal twin calves which they are will
ing to sell are requested to write
to DR.. c f. Winchester Bureau of
Animal Industry, Beltsville, Md.
Twins months old or younger are
desired and they may be IIerefords,
Shorthorns. Aberdeen Angus or any
cross of these or other beef breeds.
Identical twins sired by beef bull
and from dairy COW may also be
accepted for experimental use.
Results obtained during the first
4 years of the feeding studies with
twin calves showed that those given
only enough feed for months to
keep them from losing weight, grew
rapidly and economically when they
were later placed on adequate ra-
tons. The retarded calves required
no more total feed to reach a GER
tain weight than was consumed by
their co-twins even though the for
mer calves reached the desired
weight to months later. Meat of
the retarded calves was as good
as that from the well-fed co-twins
fed as controls. Calves fed on linn
tied calorie rations received ade-
quate allowances Of protein, min
erals and Vitamin A. The depart
ment hopes that future feeding
studies may lead to further infor-
nation concerning protein require
ments of calves on limited rations.
