Feeding cottonseed cake to steer" -| as a supplement to summer pasture in the South increases materially the rate of gains made by the animals, causes them to finish more quickly and take on a higher degree of finish and increases the margin between the buying and selling prices, specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture say in Bulletin TABLE SHOWS HO W Trlfls More Than One Hundred Dollars Monthly for Eight Months Will Grow Into Thousand Dollars by January 1, 1924. The following table will be of service to the individual who plans to save systematically throughout the year by means of War Savings Stamps. The stamps draw four per cent interest compounded quarterly. Bach 1919 War Savings Stamp was ' worth last January $4.12. Bach stamp. because of the interest that is comi pounded, costs one cent more each month, so that next January it will cost $4.24 and at the end of five years """ it will b* worth $5. Thrift Stamps are of the denomi ;t" nation of 25 cents and are the means li- by which one may accumulate small savings until a sufficient, amount is saved to purchase a War Savings Stamp. They are invaluable for the C'M thr'fty saver who can lay aside only a small amount at ft time. oe "Cost niEach Month No. Cost No. C afl May $4.16 25 $104.00 13 $5t's June 4.17 25 104.25 12 5? ;nt July 4.18 25 104.50 13 b< an Auk. 4.19 25 104.75 12 6( he Sept. 4.20 25 107?.00 13 5Oct. 4.21 25 105.25 12 &< ' Nov. 4.22 25 105.50 13 **** Dec. 4.23 25 105.75 12 5' ice - ?? )lic TOTAL 200 839.00 100 41 Maturity Val.

Present opportunities for live stock in the South and efforts to reduce production costs make the results of unusual current l ^ nvnof ? VC 1 UOli All the experiments were carried out under actual and typical farm con ditions. Consequently the results may be applied. directly in many southern regions to the management ind feeding of cattle on pasture. In each experiment, groups of steers were kept on pasture alone; on pastire with a supplementary feed of one-half corn chop and oncrhalf cottonseed cake; and on pasture with a supplementary feed of cottonseed MONEY MULTIPLIES As soon as he accumulates sixteen Thrift Stamps he may exchange them for a War Sayings Stamp by paying the few oents additional to make up the purchase price of a War Savings Stamp for that month. Thus if the Thrift Stamp saver collected his sixteen stamps in May, it then cost him 16 cents additional to convert them Into one War Savings Stamp. In June it costs 17 cents additional and so on, and then on January 1, 1924, less than five years after the exchange, the War Savings Stamp will be worth $6 and the government will pav that amount for it In tho table below the second collimn shws that the person who inrests a little more than $100 a month for eight months of this year, will have paid in before January 1, 1920 $839. On January 1, 1924, this will have grown to $1,000.

The average daily gains for ' each animal, which may be considered the most valuable standard in ' judging efficiency of rations, were 1.49 pounds for the steers getting pasture only, 1.83 pounds for the steers getting cottonseed cake with with pasture, and 81 1-2 cents for the pasture supplemented by the mixture | of cake and' com chop. I ? ' ? iMipiJiemenis increase Profits. The initial cost of the steers per 100 pounds of the three groups was the same for any one year, but in each case the steers on pasture alone sold for a lower price. The margins between the buying and selling prices of the cattle were always in favor of those which were fed supplements with their pastures. The margins averaged less than 25 cents a hundred pounds for the steers on pasture alone, compared to 90 cents for animals which were fed cottonseed cake with pasture, and 81 1-2 cents for the animals whose pasture was supplemented with the mixture of cake and corn chop. After the animals had been butchered inspection showed that the steers which were fed cottonseed cake or a mixture of cake and corn with pasture dressed out higher than the cattle which had pasture alone. While the steers that had pasture alone made gains cheaply, the total gains wore not large, and the steers d;ci not take on a high finish. Their unfinished condition is reflected in the small margin on which they were sold and low dressing percentages, i Thus the profits they returned were I * ' ' : nnuiin;i umi\ iui nit; ?iot;rs in me oin ci two groups. Profits Pay Extra Cost. 1 Tlio cost of gains of steers on pas[ tore is greatly increased by feeding , cottonseed cake, it was found, but the I better market prices received for " cake-fed cattle usually pays for the ' additional cost of feeding the cak??, ' and returns a greater average profit than is coalized on the grass-fed catlie. One of the distinct advantages on supplementing pastures for concentrates is the fact that steers so handled can he finished more quickly and can he marketed earlier than steers getting grass alone. Thus the cattle can be sold before the rush of ! grass-fed rattle gluts the market and 1 depresses prices. Moreover, when cattle are marketed early, the pas* tares have time to recuperate and fur ^ nish good grazing for other stock during the fall. K I Stables I % I pany | FLOUR DEALERS ARE RESTRICTED /Ml Who Handle the Commodity Must be Governed by Plans. New York.?Details of the United States Grain Corporation' plan to sell flour at $10 a barrel wore made public today by Juliius H. Barnes, United States wheat director. Under the plan restrictions are placed on the price to be charged by wholesalers, jobbers and retailers. The flour will be 140 pound sacks on a basis of $10 in the territory of west Illinois and Indiana and west of the Mississippi from Cairo to the Gulf of Mexico, not including the Pacific coast region and at $10.25 in the remainder of the country. Jobbers and wholesalers must guarantee to resell to retailers at not morethan 75 cents additional and retailers are confined to an increase of not more than $1.25 over the wholesale price for the original packages and must not charge more than seven cents a pound for broken packages of any size. The grain corporation also announced that its weekly purchase at Baltimore of wheat flour packed for export, was 1,051,0111 barrels at pricse ranging from $9.80 to $10.00 per barrel. There is only one case, says the bulletin, when pasture alone is pre- I ferable to pasture with concentrates. I Steers of inferior quality may return I more profit by grazing alone than by I grazing with the addition of supple- ? mentary ie?wst especially when thev are on good pastures that are cheap. fl Scrub steers do not respond readily I to the use of good feeds, and even I when well finished do not command I satisfactory prices in competition I with well-bred cattle similarly finish od. The better the quality of the H steers the safer it is to give them high-priced feeds. H Come to the Herald office for legal M blanks.
