| MEAT ANIMALS A | s IN COMBINATIONS | ; The keeping of cattle and of swine | appear to be almost inseparable op- erations. This fact is being brought | jout in the returns of the Better Sires| ! —Better Stock crusade of iuc ugri- | lculmral lleges, the Uniteq &tates| i Department of Agricuiture, and coo] |erating agencies. This general prac- { tice has long been known, but much | | more definite information is being | gathered, and the purpose is to ex- tend it to ‘such an extent as to de- ! termine the relationships among all { meat animals. : 1 i If nearly every man who keeps cat- ! | tle also keeps hogs, and if nearly EARLY-HATCHED BIRDS y GET THE PRICE Chickens can be hatched at any time of the year, but it is the caickens hatched early in the spring that give the best resuits.

The purpose was to compare cottonseed meal and soaked velvet beans when used with and without' the addition of shelled corn. The addition of corn to a ration composed of corn silage, cotton seed meal and wheat straw did not pay. The addition of eorn to the ration of vel- vet beans and corn silage was profit- able. 3 The lot receiving corn silage and soaked velvet beans with a small quantity of cottonseed meal as an an- petizer produced the most ecomomic- al gains and showed the greatest profit even though daily gains and the selli price of cattle were lower than those of any of the other lots.
