Use of Home Grown Grain Can Cut
Production Cost For POultrymen

Since the all-mash system Of feed
ing takes little less time and docs
not require quite as much exact
ness. many poultrymen may be
better off to follow that system. But
this doesn't prevent the use OF home
grown grains. The farmer can gen.
orally make as much or possibly
even greater saving by taking
high quality homegrown grains to
a feed store and having them
ground and mixed with concen-
t. ate to make a complete ration.
Producers should look primarily
for the cost Of producing a pound
Of meat or dozen eggs. and not
Just the conversion ratio or the rate
Of production alone. Quality is also
important.
Total costs per dozen eggs are
about the same on 50 per cent pro
duction on S4 per ton feed as on
a 60 per cent production on S. per
ton feed The feed that costs 81
more per hundred must increase
egg production at least 10 per cent
to justify its use.
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1957-05-10

Iaoultrymen, especially those in
surplus grain producing areas,
can often lower feed costs BY using
good quality homegrown grains
Feeding home grown grains along
with a good grade mash may often
result In a reduction of ten cents
on more IN the cost Of growing a
pullet. when compared to the feed
ina Of a total ration bought at retail
prices.
Furthermore, The use Of good
qnhlity home grown grains for
layers along with a mash prepared
f0r this purpose according to the
manufacturer directions for in
stance. a SO per cent mash, 40 per
cent grain basis may save as
much ais three cents per dozen eggs.
OH about $500 per year Oh 1000

which he can sell it, and IS assum-

Wondering what size and kind Of
pipe to use in your farm water
system?
Then vou1l be Interested in some
Information from J A Waller, Jr.,
agricultural engineer at VPI
He gives these descriptions Of the
three readily available kinds of
pipe
Galvanized steel pipe is more
widely used than any other The
protective coating Of galvanzing
material greatly increases the life
of the pipe as compared to black
pipe For that reason black pipe is
seldom considered for water sys-
TENS.
Copper pipe is ava liable in two
types by weight Type K is for
heavy duty such as for pump sue
ton lines or for underground use
where there is considerable outside
pressure, such as under driveWays.
Type l. is standard weight for gen
eral use underground and In build
ings.

is increasing. The type of plastic
pipe most readily available to Vir-

Weather Station In Outer Space
 Seen as Valuable

MINNEAPOLIS R-A weather station in outer space, 19 miles up, could make accurate forecasts for half the nation, says the Air Force doctor-pilot of a balloon that scared to a record 102,000 feet early this week.
 Maj. David G. Simons told a news conference Wednesday that one forecaster at that altitude could accomplish more than scores of ground weather stations.
 Simons said from his vantage point in the balloons gondola, he was able to spot numerous thun- derstorms of which his ground tracking parties were unaware.
 He reported earlier having seen the western shore of Lake Michi- gan from above Brainerd, Minn., a vista of some 450 miles.
 The major, recovered from the fatigue which showed when he landed the balloon near Ellendale, N.D., Tuesday, was asked why he undertook such a dangerous as- Signment.
 "I guess I just asked for it harder than others" he replied.
 He said he thought it would be possible to push a balloon such as he rode into the 12O-OOO-foot level.

 In a report submitted Wednes- day to Chairman Monroney of the Senate Subcommittee on Trans portation, the fliers' union listed 34 incidents aloft over a period of several years in which it said drunken or drinking passengers caused trouble.
 Tt would be a matter of ex- treme negligence to assume it is not necessary to take preventa- tive action until after fatal acci- dent," ALPA president c. N. Sayen said in an accompanying letter.
 Monroney's subcommittee has under consideration a bill to for bid serving, alcoholic drinks on airliners. The Air Transportation Assn. and some of it's member airlines have opposed the bill.
 The >ALPA list included four incidents in which it said drunken passengers forced their way into the cockpit. One of the four, it said, threatened to kill the pilot. "4-on" Duplicate Receipt Books |
