that farmers should plant ample

A very wasteful practice for 3
good many farmers is harvesting
oats with a mower and feeding in
the straw. We believe more value
will be realized from oats it they
are either cut for hay or for grain.
If cut for hay they should be ci j
just about the time they are in fuii
bloom. If cut at this stage the
whole stalk is green and will be
eaten by livestock with relish. If
harvested for grain the oats shoul,
be cut and threshed. When ripe
oats are fed in the straw there is a
great deal of waste caused by the
livestock browsing over the straw
searching for the grain.
We would like to have a large
number of farmers in the county ti
cooperate with us this year in
growing and feeding out one or
more beef steers. One or two steers
can usually be placed on a farm
and fed on what normally goes to
waste and thus turn the waste in
to profit. But do not get a steer
unless you have ample home
grown feed on which to fatten
him. Do not try to fatten one un
less you intend to really make him
fat. Medium fat steers compete
with feeders in price. Fat steers
will make money as a rule.
