CATTLE-PLUSA PURE BRED SIRE

A herd of thirty cows yielded dairy
products that brought In $5099.44 dur
ing 1912. These cows were fed 130
tons of silage made from com and
sorghum and valued at $2.50 per ton,
a total of $325 for roughage of this
sort. Four tons of shredded corn
stover valued at $4.00 per ton, 3 tons
of pea-vine hay valued at sls a ton,
making a total of SBO outlay, was fed
as dry roughage. Twenty seven tons
of cotton seed meal at $24.00 per ton
were fed, amounting to $648.00 for
concentrates. For six months in the
year the cattle were on pasture which
was figured at $1.50 per head per
month, a total for pasture, $270.00.
The total expenditure for labor for
feeding and delivery of milk was
$1260 —a higher expense than will or

MOST PROFITABLE DAIRY FEEDS

Husbandry. I
Inquiry—What is the most economi
cal and profitable dairy ration to use
in Georgia?
Feeding‘ tests conducted at the
Georgia State Colltge of Agriculture
for a period of ninety three days, av
erage weight of cows 800 pounds,
showed that cows fed at the rate of
six pounds of cotton seed meal, thirty
three pounds of corn silage and two
and one half pounds of corn stover,
produced milk at an average cost of
six cents per gallon, leaving a wider
margin of profits than other food
tests. One group of cattle fed five
pounds of cotton seed meal, thirty-one
pounds of corn silage, five pounds of
dried beet pulp, two and a quarter
pounls com stover, resulted in pro
ducing about a pound more of milk
per day than the first mentioned, but
the cost per gallon was nearly nine
cents per gallon as against a produc
ing cost of six cents in the first in
stance.
Another feeding test that proved
less profitable than the first mention
ed was the use of five pounds of cot
ton seed meal, thirty-three pounds of

wagon and feed of delivery horses
and incidentals such as ice, buckets
and bottles, totaled' $447.84. The total
expense and outlay figures $3,281.84
leaving net earnings $1817.60, or a
profit of $60.58 per cow. This does
not include the value of the manure
produced.
This herd has been largely built
up by use of native cattle mated with
pure bred sires.
This herd and dairy belong to the
College of Agriculture. The principal
lessons taught are that a profitable
herd can be built up by crossing na
tive cows with a pure bred sire, that
the most economical dairy feed is sil
age for roughness and cotton seed
meal for concentrates and that the
herd has been a very material fac
tor in building up a worn-out farm
by the contribution of manure.
corn silage , two pounds corn stover
and three pounds of wheat bran. Sub
stituting three pounds of wheat bran
for one pound of cotton seed meal
does not bring the same amount of
milk yield.
In 1910, 300 boys of the corn clubs
averaged 45 bushels of corn to the
acre. In In 1911, 1,000 corn clubs boys
averaged 54 bushels of corn to the
acre. In 1912, 2,500 boys averaged 60
bushels to the acre in spite of the un
favorable weather. Among the 2,500
of last year, there were 72 boys who
produced an average of 125 bushels
to the acre at a cost of 30 cents per
bushel. Valued at $1 per bushel it
is estimated that the 10,000 boys who
joined the corn clubs last year added
more than $400,000 to the wealth of
the state. Much of their corn sold for
more than $1 per bushel for seed pur
poses.
The average profit for one tenth
of an acre for the girls’ canning clubs
of Georgia during 1912 was $24,88 or
at the rate of $248.80 per acre. In
communities where the girls have
been taught canning by the college
experts individuals have purchased
canning outfits and gone into the busi
ness with great profit.
