opinion is that more tobacco will be

FEEDING CORN FODDER
Experiments Show that Corn Stover
x le Valuable In Beef ProductionCorn
Stover Is One of the Many
By.Products of the Farm.
(By J. E. Waggoner of the I H C Service
Bureau)
Profit Is a stimulus which causes
men to engage In seme one or more of
the many phases of business. It may
be commerce, the industries, banking,
farming or some other activity, yet
when all is said, the profit irom that
particular line of work is usually the
attractive feature. Competition has
become so strong that profit in many
undertakings is made only by practising
the strictest principles of economy
and exercising unusual care in looking
after ths small things and what might
be termed "by-products." For instance,
one of the sources of the banker's
income is the small increase in
the rate of interest on money loaned
over what it cost him. The same is
true of the farmer. The increase in
the value of land has necessitated
putting farming on more of a business
basis in order to realise a profit on the
investment.
Much has been said and written regarding
saving and utilizing the waste
products of the farm, and it is encouraging
to note that more farmers
are making better use of all the product*
of (heir farms than ever before.
Ope of the moat sorious waatea nas
been the neglect to save and utilize
the entire corn crop. The principal
market demand has been for the
grain. This, combined with an abundance
of hay, has not been conducive
to the use of corn fodder as a rough
forage. Conditions have changed the
past few years; among other things,
hay has advanced in price to such an
extent that It hi only good business
practice for a farmer to supply his
rough forage in the form of corn fodder
and put his hay ou the market.
Every grower or an acre of corn
should know the feeding value of the
entire crop. It is quite generally
known what returns can be expected
from the grain, but few farmers know
the feeding value of the corn stover
(stalks without the ears). Reports
from the Nebraska Experiment Station
on experiments made comparing
combinations qf shelled corn, snapped
corn, alfalfa and corn stover show
that when stover is used as half
of the roughage It reduces the cost of
gains on two-year-old steers from 40
to 48 cents pop hundred. The stover
\va? found to be actually worth $3.55
per ton as compared with alfalfu fed
alone at $6.00 per ton. The farm value
of alfalfa and other hay crops reached
a mark of more than twice thiB amount
the past year, thus increasing the
value of corn atover from $8.00 to
I $12.00 pur ton.
With these figures before us, it is
plain to see that the corn belt farmer
is nugleoting one of his important
sources of income by letting his cornstalks
stand In the field. Considering
the small yield of only one ton of
stover to the acre, the returns of the
American farmer would have been
Increased millions of dollars last year
if this what might be called by-product
had been saved. Coming back to the
Individual farmer, he would have
realized his proportion of this profit.
During this summer is the time to
plan on cutting the corn for fodder
this fall and utilizing to the best advantage
the entire corn crop. We find
that the Nebraska bulletin No. 100
says: "By feeding corn fodder, we
utilizo the stalk and yet are put to no
- * ? - ia ? a 4
extra labor nusKing n. in taut, cum
can be cut with a harvester and put in
the shock cheaper ttian it can be
picked and cribbed, inasmuch as three
men with a team and harvester can
cut and shock seven acres per day.
Records from the farm department
of this experiment station show that
it costs $1.18 per acre to cut and
shock corn, which figure does not
allow for the wear and tear on the
machine. Three cents per bushel
should cover the cost of harvesting
corn with a machine and putting it
in the shocks."
The logical way of saving the corn
crop i9 to shred the fodder. Extensive
experiments at the Wisconsin Experiment
station show that about ?* per
cent of the feeding value of fodder is
lost if left exposed to the elements
By shredding and storing, this less will
be prevented. The fodder is also in a
much more convenient form for hand
ling, and is relished more by the stock
Shredded fodder does uot occupy as
much room for storing as the un
shredded, and tho stable manure if
much easier handled.
In summing up the results of vari
oils feeding experiments with corn It
all forms it is found that the bos'
way to utilize the corn crap is to save
the stalks either in the form of ensil
age or shroddod fodder. Tho records
of the Nebraska Experiment Statior
dispel any doubt as to the economy o
harvesting corn by tho use of the cori
hinder as compared with husking tin
standing corn in the field. Under tin
hitlor condition the stalks would b<
lost. The value of the stalks as i
I rough feed, considering hay at th<
' present price, is at least $8.00 per ton
An ordinary yield of corn will produci
two or threo tons of stover to tin
acre. Compare this value with th
price of fifty cents per acre, which i
usually paid for stalks standing in tin
field. When corn is fed as shreddei
fodder, the loss of stock duo to corr
stalk disease is entirely prevented
Every farmer that has stock to fee<
should plan to supply the most of hi
roughage in the form of shredded cori
, fodder, thus utilising in the best poi
slblo way his entire corn crop.
Forty per cent of the feeding valu
of tho corn crop is found in the stalk
LIME FOR SOILS
Crop Growth Indicative of Condition
of the Soil?Lime Is Important for
Growing Leguminous Crops?Manure
Spreader May Be Used for Applying
Lims
Mr. O. C. Ro*tel, Marble, Washingi
toil, writes as fallows: "Please let
, me know If our mountains of lime
' rock here In Stevens county could be
utilized for commercial fertilizer by
grinding it tine without first burning."
Unburned but finely ground limeJ
stone is best for correcting soil acidity.
I The use of lime 011 soils is beneficial
in places where calcium is deficient.
Some crops require more calcium than
, otners. 'I'llis is especially uue ui
j clovers, alfalfa, and other leguminous
[ crops.
Whether the soil requires calcium
' depends upon it* condition, and this
< can be determined by one of two
methods ? either by a close examina'
tion of the plant growth or by the use
1 of litmus paper. If you find horse
sorrel present in large quantities it
I Indicates that your soil requires
j calcium; also, if clovers do not grow
| well that is an indication that cal'
cium is lacking.
| By the use of litmus papers, which
. may be purchased at almost any drug
store, you will be able to determine
whether your soil is acid. Take a
small quantity of moist soil and press
; it around the paper for ten or fifteen
minutes. If the blue paper is turned
to a pinkish or reddish color, it will
Indicate that your soil is acid and an
application of lime will be beneficial.
I There are several (at least ten) forms
of commercial lime on the market.
The best form to use is finely ground
limestone. First: because it is cheapest,
and, second: the effect on the
humus is not so serious as with other
forms of lime?especially caustic or
quick lime. The action of finely
ground limestone in its attack on the
vegetable matter is less noticeable
than with other forms of lime. The
amounts to apply depend on how badly
your soil requires calcium, and also
upon the available supply of limestone.
We have known of instances
where as high as eight tons have been
applied to the acre with good results,
and as low as a ton or a ton and a half
has been used very satisfactorily.
The usual amount varies from three
; to six tons to the acre. This material
should be supplied to the surface after
the seed bed is prepared, and harrowed
In by the use of a peg-tooth or disk
harrow. It may be scattered by the
use of a manure spreader; in fact, this
Is the usual machine for applying
finely ground limestone.
DESTROYING GRASSHOPPERS
Reply to Jacob Mathiason, Walnut
G rove, Minn. "Please send me by
mall directions for killing grasshoppers."
liefore attempting to give a remedy
for the grasshopper plague, a few
words In regard to Its early stages of
growth will not be out of place. In
order for the grasshopper to multiply
to any extent, the soil in which the
eggs are laid must be undisturbed and
there must be an abundance of food
available. Th^ most favorable condition
for grasshopper development
seems to be found in the alfalfa sections
of the west. Where It is possible,
one of the best preventive measures is
to cultivate the ground. The soil need
pot he disturbed below the first two
Inches of surface, for most of the
eggs are deposited very shallow. We
fully realize that in many cases this
rionp fin ns to comnletoly
VUUI?VV VV ? ? ,
destroy the grasshopper, but where it
is possible to plow and cultivate in the
fall, the number can bo greatly de
creased.
There are two ways of destroying
the adult or grown grasshopper. One
is by the use of the hopper dozer.
Various forms are in use, but one thai
has given very good satisfaction can
he built of sheet iron, ten or twelve
feet long, and about twenty-six inches
wide, with a board across the back,
against which the grasshoppers will
fly and then fall into the bottom of the
hopper dozer. The bottom of the hopper
dozer should he made water tight,
1 so that a quantity of water may bo
poured into it, also a small quantity of
I kerosene. The hopper dozer should be
1 mounted on low skids or small wheels
a.id drawn by one or more horses.
The grasshoppers will be collected in
! the hopper dozer and killed by coming
in contact with the kerosene. This
1 whole structure Is rather Inexpensive
and has proved a very good method of
.. * a
destroying trie grussnoppur.
> The bureau of entomology of the
I United States Department of Agrl
culture has recommended a poisoned
bait, which is known as the "criddle
' mixture," and has given very good
i results in some sections. The mixf
ture is made as follows:
i Onchnlf barrel fresh horse drop~
pings, in which is mixed one pound
? each of salt and parts green. If the
8 droppings are not fresh, the salt If
dissolved in water and mixed with the
8 manure and poison.
' Then this mixture is scattered freelj
p about, whore the grasshoppers are
? abundant. Dr. Fletcher, entomologist
c for the Dominion of Canada, cites ar
? instance where this poison mixture
p was scattered around a portion of the
1 field, with the result that this port lot
i* stayed green while the grasshopper!
I. seriously Injured other parts of the
d same field. The criddle mixture hai
s been preferred to other brands of poi
n son because its effect on other form!
i* of animal life is not so serious.
Before the frost is tho time to pre
pare for next year's crop by selcctim
l seed corn in the field.
