Profits From Swine After Beef Cattle Fattening
Profits from hogs following steer fattening can add significantly to cattle profitability. Experiments cited by Prof. E. F. Serrin show hogs fed with whole shelled or ear corn often yield $3 to $4 worth of pork per steer during a typical fattening period. Use active, thrifty pigs weighing 100 to 150 pounds with steers and market at 200 to 250 pounds. One pig per steer for two-year-olds, or one pig per two steers for yearlings and calves, is recommended, with pig gains around one pound per day for efficiency.

Proper Feeding Rule to Follow in Cold Weather
The text explains a feeding rule for cows in winter and pasture seasons. It states one pound of grain per day per four pounds of milk with 3 to 3 percent fat, or one pound per day per three pounds of milk if fat is 5 percent or higher. It notes grass conditions affect grain needs, with one third as much grain in good pasture and gradual increases as grass dries. Judgment is essential to maintain production and cow condition, and cows in late milking stages producing 10 to 15 pounds daily may not need concentrates during pasture.
