Attention is directed to a statement
prepared by Mr. W. F. Ward, senior
animal husbandman in the United
States agricultural department, sum-
marizing flie results of investigations
made by the department into the cost
of growing beef cattle in different lo-
calities in the United States.
These investigations were carried
on in the so-called corn-belt states of
Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa,
Missouri, South Dakota, Nebraska ami
Kansas, in Pennsylvania, in north Al-
abama and in west Alabama. In each
case every possible charge was made
against the cattle, including not only
all feed, but also labor, equipment,
taxes, risk, depreciation, veterinary
fees and inter? st at (5 per cent on the
investment, and against each calf was
charged not only the net cost of keep-
ing the cow, but also the cost ol' the
bull per calf. The tinal results are
all In favor of tin? South.
1 he average cost per hundred
pounds of raising a calf to weaning
time was .<•. . 10 in the corn belt and
ST.'J- in Pennsylvania, as compared
with •S.'$..r)3 in north Alabama and
in west Alabama.
The average cost per hundred
pounds of raising a calf of twelve or
fifteen months old was $11.Til in the
corn belt and $7,115 in Pennsylvania,
tis compared with $4.41 in north Ala-
bama and $i.r,il in west Alabama. 1 In
figures for the corn belt, IVnnsyiva
nia and north Alabama are based on
raising a calf to the age of twelve
months, ami those for west Alabama
to the age of fifteen months.
While the investigations of the de-
partment in the South were carried
(mi only in localities in north Alabama
and west Alabama, conditions in
other parts of the South, including
the states of Mississippi, the whole of
Alabama, (leorgia, northern Florida,
South Carolina and parts of Tennes-

Because of Small Size They Are Read-
ily Fed Without Cracking or Crush-
ing—Grains Are in Steady
Demand.
(From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
The sorghum grains, especially the
Rlaekhull kafir, are excellently adapted
for poultry feed, according to Farm-
ers' Bulletin No. (>8(>, "Uses of Sorghum
drain," which will be issued shortly. In
size these grains are small enough so
lhat they are readily fed without
cracking or crushing.
An investigation made in 1!>0S
showed more than 100 firms engaged in
the manufacture of over 200 brands of
poultry feed. Figures furnished at
that time by '13 of these firms showed
tin annual output of about 30,000 tons
of these products. Approximately one-
third of this quantity, or TO.tMM) tons,
consisted of the seed of Blaekhull
kafir. Tills was used mostly in mix-
ture with other grains, such as corn,
wheat, screenings, etc. It probably Is
a safe estimate that kafir or other
gralp-sorghum seed forms fully 25 per
cent of the prepared poultry feed sold
in this country.
There Is a steady demand for these
grains in the manufacture of poultry
feed. When the crop in this country
j has been short, similar varieties have
! been imported from as far away as
India and China. Such Importations
I occurred four years ago as a result
| of the short crop of 1009. The poultry
j Industry is steadily Increasing in this
| country. It is probable that kafir grain
would form a still larger proportion of
! the total poultry feed manufactured If
it were always available at satlsfac-
j tory prices. This avenue for extend-
I ing the use of these grains should not
be neglected.
HEN MANURE OF MUCH VALUE
Made So on Account of Large Amount
of Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and
Potash It Contains.
! When air-dry, hen manure should
j contain about 40 pounds of nitrogen,
| 40 pounds of phosphoric add nnd 20
pounds of potash to the ton.
Fresh manure from fattening cattle
should contain 15 pounds of nitrogen,
eight pounds of phosphoric acid and
10 pounds of potash per ton, while
mixed barnyard manure, after ex-
posure to the weather In open yards,
Is estimated to contain 10 pounds of
nitrogen, six pounds of phosphoric acid
and 10 pounds of potash to the ton.
A ton of dry lien manure is worth
ilinost as much as four tons of yard
munure.
Good Feed Is Secured But at Tre.
mendous Cost of Labor—Many
Now Using Cowpea Hay.
(By PAl'I. TABOR, Field A Kent AKron-
tui'e'l ('"liege „f Agih-ul-
Pulling fodder is like pulling grass
for hay. A good feed is secured hut
at a tremendous cost of labor. Also
(lie yield of grain is decreased by the
removal of the leaves before they have
finished their task of filling the ears.
llie increased yield of grain where
the leaves are allowed to mature is
usually more than enough to ptiy for
the fodder. Hundreds of (leorgia
farmers have learned this and are
now substituting cowpea hay for Un-
costly fodder and many more will do
so if they will give it a fair trial.
Comparisons can be made-by stripping
some rows of their leaves and leaving
others alone, ami at harvesting time
noting the condition of the grains on
the ears. Seed planted from fodder
stripped plants show up poorly sn that
the loss is not confined to one season.
j BLUE OINTMENT FOR VERMIN
Preparation Is Effective Agent in Rid-
ding Chickens of Lice—Apply Only
Small Amount.
Blue ointment, a preparation which
may be procured at any drug store, is
a very effective agent in completely
ridding chickens of lice. To cheapen
the preparation, as good results may
be had by adding one-half part vase-
line. Apply a small amount, such as
a thimbleful, of the grease Just be-
low the vent of each bird. Do not at-
tempt to grease sitting h.tis with the
preparation.
The blue ointment contains mer-
cury and suet. The lice eat the suet
and are poisoned with the mercury.
This method of treatment is more ef-
fective thun dusting, inasmuch as it re-
mains intact longer and not only kills
tin- lice that are alive, hut also catches
those that hatch out later.
SHEEP ARE AFRAID OF DARK
Difficult Matter to Lead Animals Into
Barn at Night—Sight of Lantern
Frightens Them.
Those who have hod any experi-
ence in handling sheep well know
how difficult it Is to get them Into
a barn or shed after dark. The In-
terior Is dark and they are afraid
to enter. of course It Is possible
to catch one or two nnd curry them
Inside, but even then the rest will not
follow.
A lantern placed where the sheep
can see it frightens them away in-
stead of Untieing them inside. Hut
a lantern placed Just inside the door
and to one side, Illuminates the In- j
terior of the hum and does not fright-
en the sheep. The sheep will rend- j
ily and quietly enter u barn lit uj/ j
in this way.
