The JPirst Essential of Successful
Stock Raising.
It the advantages ot live stock
husbandry, as pictured in thel
agricultural press, by farmers'
inetitu'e lecturers and by agricultural
feathers generally, had
been realized by those who have
attempted to engage in the business
throughout the South, there
would now be no necessity I or
advocating the growing of more
live stock.
While we are convinced that
tfie teaching regarding the
value of live stock husbandry has
iu the main been correct, it nevertheless
remains a stubborn
fact that Southern farmeis, and
others among us who have had
"experience,'' have not found
the business generally profitable.
Probably 95 out of every 100
who have engaged in some one
of the various lines of stock rais,
iug, on a more or less extensive
scale, will testify to their firm
conviction that there is more
money in cotlou.
Tills failure of the general experience
of our people to support
facts established and iienerally
accepted when applied to
other (arming sections, must
have some satisfactory explanation.
That is, (here must be
some good reason why live stock
husbandry has not been found
generally profitable throughout
the South and consequently has
not made that progressive development
which generally accompanies
improved agricultural
conditions.
The excuse generally given by
those who have not made the bu-i
nessprofitable is, vers naturally.
that clim Hie, soil, and o'her
conditions are unfavor tblo to the
industry; but thai ibis conclusion
is untenable, therei- ample pro d
in the success oi individuals
here and there throughout the
whole South, who have made
practically all the different lines
ot stock raising proli able. It is
but natural that tlmse who
noi made the busness profi able
should lay the blame on the climate,
soil, or some o'her con iition
over which man has no con
fcrol, rather than on thm-elve*;
bu* in view ol the fact thai some
have succeeded, we are probably
justified in concluding that the
trouble has been with (lie rnui
With the coining of llie b'dl
weevil there is addiiional reason
for the introduction of more live
stock husbandry into our agriculture,
and thosejwlio are (in incially
able are going to inve-i and
lose much money in live -t ? !<
during the next few year* unless

(he owner until th? body demands
of the animal are supplied, and
if barely enough feed for these
are furnished, not only is there
no profit, buf instead, the complete
Iosh of that feed which is
pi veil is the inevitable result.
Tue first step in preparing for
live 6tock husbandry is to prepare
for the growing of feed lor
live sloe's. The chief it not the
oi.ly true purpose of live stock,
on the farm, apart from the
work stock is to consume feed
aud convert it into products of
equalor greater value and leave
on the farm a large share of the
plant foods used in the producti
uon 01 inosiocKieea n tins oe
the case, the more raw product,
feed, consumed the more finished
product made and the more fully
has the animal fulfilled its
true mission. Anyone who contemplates
materially increasing
his live stock, six months or a
year hence, should begin at once
to provide real pastures and an
abundance of feed for such live
stock.
While our errors are many as
respects the selection and balancing
feeds, our cliiefest of
sins is in not providing a sufficient
quantity. Owing to the
fact that we do not produce ?uf|
ticient feed stuffs for local use,
the price of feeds is high and we
are not likely to find pre tit in
feeding what we produce unless
it is ted under the most favorable
conditions. Ilence, the
necessity tor a good quality
of stock well feed, but remember
always that the lirst
and most important phase of
live stock growing on the farm,
is the production ol feeding stuff s.
There is no wifulom in getting an
expensive machine unless we are
certain we can supply an abundance
of the raw materials necessary
to successfully run the
machine. No Southern man has
any use for live stock unless he
expects, nay, is certain, he can
supply an abundance of leed
produced on his own tarm at 1 he
least cost practicable
More feod first and then more
live stock!?Progressive banner. |
