Texas Trials on Livestock Projects at Winter Haven Station

The Winter Haven experiment station at Cartizo Springs will add livestock to its projects. Wesley Grote says the change comes with an increased station budget for regional livestock studies. R D Lewis reports at Beaumont over nine years fertilizers and lime enhanced forage, doubling yield and boosting protein and phosphoric acid in pastures. Improved fertilized pastures raise carrying capacity and beef yields. At the Comanche park 4H and FFA show, Leroy Fields sold a champion bred calf for 50 cents a pound. Francis Faltin's Jamb weighed 90 pounds and sold to Swift at 95 cents per pound. Duroc champion pig weighed 280 pounds and sold for 33 cents per pound to Swift. Malcolm Stratman’s capon led a sale where Lyles bought 11 capons and other livestock.
