FEEDING GEORGIA
CATTLE JOG MARKET
Milton P. Jamagin, Prof. Animal Hw.,
Ga. State College Of Agriculture
The most economical method ot
feeding cattle is by the aae of the
silo. In the absence of the silo and
for the benefit of the farmer with only
a few head of cattle to feed, a sched
ule of feeding cattle for the market
has been worked out at the College.
Those feeds have been selected which
can be produced eoonomically, and
which can be marketed to beat, ad
vantage by feeding to beef cattle.
Sorghum affords a cheap source of
fat. Oat straw and corn stover should
be used. Cow pea hay is advantage
ously used during the last two months
of feeding. Cotton seed meal is the
cheapest concentrate.
In feeding cotton seed meal the fol
lowing schedule is recommended: Nov.
1-5, 1 lb.; Nov. 6-10, 2 lba.; Nov. 11-20,
3 lbs.; Nov. 21-30, 4 lbs.; Dec. 1-10, 5
lbs.; Dec. 11-20, 5% lbs.; Dec. 21-30,
6 lbs.; Dec. 81-Jan. 9,6% lbs.; Jan.
10-19, 7 lbs.; Jan. 20-29, 7% lbs.
For sorghum feeding the schedule is
as follows: Nov. 1-Dec. 1, 20 lbs.; Dec.
1-30, 15 lbs.; Dec. 31-Jan. 29, 10 lbs.
Oats, straw or corn stover should be
fed as follows: Nov. 1-30, 10 lbs.; Dec.
1-30, 7% lbs.; Dec. 31-Jan. 29, 5 lbs.
Cotton seed hulls are scheduled to
be fed at the rate of 3 lbs. per day
during the entire period.
Cow-pea hay is introduced in the
feed Dec. 1 and fed at the rate of 3
lbs per day till Dec. 30 and 6 lbs. per
day the remainder of the period.
Corn is scheduled to enter Into the
ration December 1 at the rate of 2 lbs.
per day and increased Dec. 31 to 4 lbs.
per day for the remainder of the pe
riod.
All the feeds mentioned, of course,
constitute the ration and are fed to
gether in keeping with the amounts
and dates mentioned. The amount
of each feed is broken into two ra
tions, one for the morning feed and
one for the evening.
COTTON SEED MEAL
FOR LAYING HENS
Roy F. Irvin., Instructor In Poultry,
Georgia State College Of Agr.
Cotton seed meal costs about $1.50
per 100 pounds as against $3.25 for
good beef scraps, which it can replace,
thus affecting a saving of 50 per cent.
The College has been feeding cotton
seed meal in dry mash, which is be
fore the hens at alt times, about 3 per
cent of the mash being cotton seed
meal, besides this, a wet mash con
sisting of 18 per cent cotton seed meal
mixed with corn meal, bran and shorts,
is fed at noon each day.
Care should be taken not to feed cot
ton seed meal in amounts over 20 per
cent of the amount of the mash.

BEST YIELDING OATS IN
GEORGIA AND METHOD
OF PLANTING
_____ >
Ross H. Childs, Agronomist, CMorgla
Stats College Of AgrfMftuve
The College of Agrfettftose, to co
operation with the office of Oateal
Investigation of the United Slates
reau of Agriculture, Is conducting aj
number of experiments as to ffkno
and manner of seeding, pseparaClbni
of seed bed and comparative tests of
varieties of oats.
Oats seeded at the College to plats
in October yielded from 10 to 20 budh
els more per acre than when planted
November 1, indicating that for Nom>
Georgia oats should be seeded in Oc
tober. In South Georgia, howeVOr,
oats do well when sown as Ihte Art
November 15.
Where oats follow corn that has
been cut and shocked, doubhvrtiecing
the soil with a disc harrow and pit
ting in the seed with a grain drill BaA
given slightly better results than plow
ing the land and then seeding. Tfcp
cost of discing is only about one-biW
that of plowing.
Oats following cotton can be aovto
about October 16 between cotton rovys.
The cotton stalks can be broken d(W&n
with a stalk cutter about February 1.
Seeding with a drill has been fbund
to give much higher yields than when
sown broadcast and slightly bettor
yields when sown by the open
rough method.
The Red Rustproof group of oat,
such as Appier, Texas Rust Proof, Ban
croft and Hundred Bushel, has given
excellent results. The Fulghmn is an
excellent oat maturing from one to
two weeks earlier than the Red Rust
proof group. Its yield has been abrtdt
8 bushels less than Appier during four
years’ test at the College plats. In
south Georgia, however, It doet? |®lte
as well as any variety with the ad
vantage of earliness.
PRUNING GRAPES
T. H. McHatton, Prof. Hwrt., Georgto
State College Of Agriculture
Because of the tendency of grape
vines to bleed severely when pruned
late, it is essential that, the pruning
be done before Christinas. Grapos
bear their fruit on the wood of the
season from last season’s canes. This
should be remembered when pruning
vines. A good, strong, healthy grape
vine several years old, can well afford
to carry 4 to 8 runners of two to three
feet in length, though in some meth
ods of pruning they are cut. back to
the spurs.
Contrary to the general belief, scop
pernongs can be pruned with success.
The College has had success growing
scuppernongs on trellis taking partic
ular care to prune before Clrrlstmes
