By Faculty Ca University of from photographs | The results of a very extensive cat- | tle feeding experiment have been re- | cently published by the College of Ag- | Ticulture. Three hundred animals ' were involved in the investigations, | and these were fed in forty separate | lots. The work has taken five years. | The object of the experiment was to learn the effect of various factors j in beef production, especially with an- imals kept on bluegrass pasture. Does it pay, for example, to add oil-meal to ithe corn ration of a steer kept on } bluegrass? Or what is the difference | in economy -of gain in a longer or | shorter feeding period? In what con- dition of flesh will steers gain most economically? These are some of the main questions involved, which have been answered .by this investigation. There is very little difference in the amount of grain required to make a pound of flesh, whether the grain be corn ‘alone, or corn mixed with cot- tonseed or linseed meal. One lot of yearlings fed on corn alone, made as good gains in proportion to the num- ber of pcu.ds of their feed as did those on the supplémented ration. It | was found, however, that more of the mixed ration would be eaten, probably because it was more palatable, and } therefore, greater actual gains would be made. During the latter part of the feeding period, when all gains re- quire proportionately more feed, it is We have a man in the ‘case centers as a that devotes all of his time to buying for us.

Tuvetration from the C highly profitable to feed this more palatable mixed ration. It is found that the gain is more uni- form and regular on the supplemented ration than it is on a feed of straight corn. The cattle thus fed are smooth. er, also, when finished. The cost of a pound of gain is greater in any case with the supple- mented ration, but this difference is not so great toward the latter end of feeding as it is when the cattle are fairly thin. The fact that the cattle will continue to get comparatively large amounts of the supplemented ration clear up till they are finished, YEARLING CATTLE ON BLUEGRASS TO ILLUSTRATE “FATTENING” CAT TLE. 4s sufficient warrant for using it, a: they will thus be in better shape. The experiment emphasizes the nee: for a supplemented ration during th. latter stages of the feeding perio’ while it proves that such a ration is o doubtful economic value during thc early stages. It was found that a ration made o: only one part of the linseed or cot: tonseed meal to six or seven parts ot corn, was more efficient than tha’ made with more of the oil meal.

The possibility of making’ Missouri first in corn yield ~has been pointed out by J. C. A. Hiller ofthe bureau of labor statistics. In his ‘‘Red-Book”’ he calls attention to the fact that last year’s crop of 271,500,000 bushels ranked third in the United States, ‘‘a position,” he says, ‘‘envied by her many other commonwealths, which have to be satisfied with lower honors, but even with this exultant and un- disputed place, it is not all the state is entitled to. A few years hence, when certain proposed improvements be- come facts, our state will move up- ward and be at the top of the lengthy list of maize producers. “This honor will come, and easily, too, when all of the rich low bottom lands along the Mississippi and Mis- souri rivers and of all tributary streams are amply protected from overflows by high, substantial levees, and the swamps in Pemiscot, Dunk- lin, Mississippi, New Madrid, Scott, Perry and other counties have been drained. Nowhere in the country is there richer corn land. By turning these fertile, but now useless areas, into maize fields, the annual crop will easily be increased 100,000,000 bush- els, worth—at 50 cents—$50,000,000. “This huge sum would not alone pay for all levees needed in the bot- tom lands and for all the ditches and other protection planned for the sunk- en and water covered sections, but would also go a long ways toward de- fraying the costs of a fourteen foot channel in both the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, as far as this state is directly in touch with them. “The 1910 corn crop of Missouri broke all earlier records. The pre- vious banner yield was in 1902, eight years ago, when the production amounted to 264,232,705 bushels. In 1907, 241,025,000 bushels were raised; 856. This simply means that Noda- in 1908, 203,634,000 bushels, and in 1909, 213,840,000 bushels. “Of course, not all of this produc- tion is sent to market; that is, not in} the shape of corn. A vast susnily is kept on the farms stock and poultry, a in the end goes to market in the much more} valuable form of cattle, hogs, horses, mules and other live stock, poultry, butter, milk, cream, eggs and other} - farm commodities worth $200,000,- 000—or $80,000,000 for labor, inter- est on live stock and buildings, rough- ness fed with corn, and profit. While Nodaway county was the banner corn coiinty of the state for 1909, with acrop of 6,654,778 bushels. Saline county second, with 6,427,800 bushels, and Atchison county third, with 5,765,585 bushels, . Mississippi county led in the amount sent out to market, which was 1,152,808 bushels valued at $691,685. New Madrid county holds second place in surplus, with 793,200 bushels, valued at $475- 920, and Chariton county ranks third, with 791,426 bushels, valued at $474- way county, noted for its rich farms and farmers, was getting the biggest share of that extra $80,000,000, which contains a profit even over and above the high corn prices that prevailed.

T. Clay’s, Culver Asks for More Time. Jefferson City, Mo., April 26.— Judge R. E. Culver, special Commis- sioner appointed by the Supreme Court to take testimony in the contest proceedings over two seats on the Supreme Court bench and the office of State Superintendent of Public Schools, filed ina motion in the Su- preme Court in banc to-day asking ninety days’ additional time from May 1 to file his report and finding with the court. If this is granted, there will be no definite action taken in the contest proceedings until August 1. It is customary with the court to grant such applications. The original order of the court re- quired the Commissioner to make his report and file his finding by May 1. It seems the task has been too great to be disposed of at that time. Unless the present term of court holds much later than usual the April term will have ended before August land the next meeting of the court will not be held until the October term. The Commissioner, however, could file his report during vacation. Carpet rags dyed with Put- NAM FADELESS Dyes will not fade, and-the colors are bright “and pretty. Butler 17—Rich Hill 9.
