Feeding Strategies For Cattle In Tight Feed Times
The note outlines cheap roughage and grain blends to balance nutrients during scarce feeds. It recommends combining ground adits, ground barley, wheat bran and wnseed meal, or substitutes like wheat middlings, to create cost effective rations. It also suggests rationing: one pound of concentrate with about three pounds of roughage, plus five pounds daily per head, to support milk cattle and dry cows.

Agricultural Hints From Agriculture Department Scientists
Experts from the United States Department of Agriculture seek to breed bees with stronger wings for longer flights and heavier nectar loads. About thirty varieties of soybeans exist in the U S but at the Artington Virginia experimental farm over 2000 varieties are cultivated. The ideal six week old carcass weighs up to 120 pounds and should be light colored signaling milk-fed flesh. Seed corn should come from the same state region as the growing field. Every game bird from pheasant to quail remains more valuable alive on the farm than for the table.
