REA PROGRESS-1954
A year-end summary of the
activities of the Rural Electrified
ton Administration shows that
during the calendar year 1854 the
agency approved loans totaling I'll
million dollars to provide service
for 10000 consumers.
In Montana, the REA report
shows, loans amounting to a total
of $2,418,0O0 were approved dur
ing the year to construct some
7O6 miles of line to serve an esti-
mated 1897 consumers.
For the nation as a whole, REA
borrowers in 1854 added about
SO, 700 miles of line and connected
$4,000 consumers. This increased
the total line mileage to $4,000
and total consumers to 4,176,000

than oat hay.
Some of the arguments heard
for chopping hay go like this,
''They don't eat enough hay IN
less it's chopped" In answering
that statement it is suspected that
perhaps this feeder is forcing his
animals to eat stemmy unpalat-
able portion of the plant by having
it before them unduly long. If
there seems to be a lot of hav
left in the hunks examine II to
see if it is the Stenmy parts. Sheep
especially are highly sensitive in
their taste and will refuse to eat
stems that have been slobbered
and breathed on. If your animals
aren't consuming enough hay per-
haps it would be wise to clean
the steps out of the manger and
hunks once a day. Experimental
ton has shown that there is little
difference between self-feeding
chopped hay and hand feeding
long hay, which again proves that
enough hay can be hand fed long
if the unpalatable portions are
removed. A prominent Richland
County feeder has stated, cit
doesn't hurt me to throw out the
stems - besides, I need the bed
ding"
Another argument for chopping
goes like this, "They pull too much
out to the ground when fed long"
Here again, if the manager and
hunks are cleaned out once each
day and are deep enough to begin
with, very little is wasted. Accord
ing to experimental data only 3.7%
of the total amount of loose hay
fed is wasted which means that
if hay were worth $18 a ton only
SGT worth is wasted as compared
again to $500 for chopping. It is
interesting to note that the same
experiment showed $500 of the
chopped hay fed was wasted.
Then there's the cost of chop
ping the hay to consider. It usu-
ally takes around $500 to chop a
ton of alfalfa. 1t takes a little less
to feed chopped hay ($2.27 TOM OF
compared to loose hay ($2.58 TOM
on the average, but this difference
certainly does not offset the cost
of chopping.

 The Autograph depicts a like ness of Nixon wearing an eye mask. In one hand was a bucket laibled smear" and paint brush daubed in red. In the other hand was a pumpkin, apparently a reference to the pumpkin pa pers" of the Alger Hiss case which Nixon, ;ts a US. senator, investigated.
