Two hundred steers were in volved in the test. Half of them were fed ground shelled corn and an alfalfa hay-molasses mixture with supplement. The other hundred steers were fed ground ear corn, with supple ment mixed into the daily ration. Sufficient molasses was added to make it approximately equal to the per cent of molasses in the corn-alfalfa ration. Both groups of steers had access to salt and min erals. The hundred steers getting ground shelled corn and alfalfa hay gained an average of 3.30 pounds per day for the 128-day feeding period, compared to a 2.93-pound average daily gain for the hundred steers in the ground ear corn lot. Feed costs, however, in the ground shelled corn group amounted to $BO 92 per head, compared to $65.70 in the other lot. Average 'weights in the two groups were nearly equal at the beginning, about 740 pounds. The ground shelled corn steers weigh ed an average of 1,12 pounds at the end, compared to 1,116 in the other group. The differences in rate of gains were essentially offset by the dif ference in feed costs in the two lots, and net profits per animal were nearly identical in both groups. Steers in the ground shel led corn group averaged $23.03 net profit each, compared to an even $23.00 in the other lot, show ing that with proper grain sup plement, cobs can be an effective roughage in the cattle ration.
