Wise dairymen and hog and beef cattle feeders can boost profits by using cottonseed meal to balance protein in rations.

Iron boosted weight gain in tested feeder pigs

Last winter teams of fall pigs averaging 66 pounds were fed shelled corn and a mineral mix. One group received iron oxide venetian red added to bone black, ground line stone, salt and other minerals, while the other did not. Pigs with iron reached 225 pounds ten days sooner and produced gains at 27 cents per hundredweight lower cost. The iron mix was valued at over $20 per hundred based on tests, yet cost about $2.15 per hundred, adding roughly 15 cents per hundred.

Alfalfa Patch Delivers Big Hay Yields and Dairy Profit

H Boyce of Rolfe Iowa reports three-fourths acre of alfalfa produced five large loads of hay in three cuttings enough to feed six cows twelve calves and extra for pigs and chickens. His dairy income from six cows fed alfalfa totaled 450 in the winter months. Iowa State College dairy extension workers advise that freshened cows fed in corn stalks lose milk production if kept there and note drying up can follow. Readers can request full results from the Whoo-ope Day experiments on 500 pigs across 60 rations and managements by writing to the Animal Husbandry Section Ames Iowa.
