Lancaster Farming, Friday, Feb. 22, 1957 Increased Use of Molasses in Feed Led to Changes in Increased use of molasses in livestock feed in recent years has been accompanied by changes in methods of transporting it. ac cording to a report issued by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Tank trucks are used more than before to deliver molasses from railroads, from waterborne earners, and from seaport termi nals directly to users. Rapid development of tank truck deliveries, making molasses available in small quantities to feeders and feed mixers in the Middle West, was accompanied by almost a hundredfold expan sion of molasses shipments by water up the Mississippi River from 1949 to 1954, the report shows Much of this molasses then was delivered to the users by truck, now generally regarded as the principal method lor trans porting molasses for feed. Previously, railway tank-car deliveries had necessitated ship ments so large that farmers and small feed mixers usually could not afford to buy in the large quantities shipped. Costs of transporting molasses are such that tank trucks can readily compete with railroads at distances under 250 miles, the re port says. The services that tank tiucks can provide are particular ly important to livestock feeders with less than 100 head of live stock and to mixed-feed mills producing less than 2,500 tons of feed a year.
