Extended Beef Feeding
“Extended feeding of beef
cattle increased carcass fat
'trim and resulted in less re
tail''yield," in a University of
Missouri study, reports R. L.
Warner of the animal hus
bandry department:
In the study, beef bulls, beef
steers, beef heifers, dairy-beef
crossbred steers and heifers
were fed a wintering ration of
corn silage and protein, supple
ment for 140 days before being
fed -out.
The feeding period for half
the cattle was 80 to 87 days.
The other half were fed an
additional 70 days.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, June 11, 1966
Warner says the longer fed
group had slightly lower gains
and lower feed conversion.
He points out that “carcasses
from cattle on feed the 70 addi
tional days had 5.5 percent
more carcass fat trim and 3.4
percent leu retail yield than
carcasses from animals fed the
shorter period.”
" Carcass grade, conformation,
and tenderness were not great
ly influenced by the additional
70 days in the feedlot.
“In this study,” says Warn
er, “cattle fed beyond 80 to 87
days gained at a slightly slow
er pace and not quite as elß
ciently. Also, a higher percent
age of the gain was fat, result
ing in carcasses with a less
proportionate retail yield.
Quality and grade of meat was
not effected, either up or
down.

Pasteurization
Is Magic Word
In Dairyland
Pasteurization is a process
named for its developer, scien
tist Louis Pasteur.
' r V- «
In pasteurization, the raw
milk is heated quickly and
piomptly cooled to destioy
haimful bacteria that may be
piesent and to impiove the
keeping quality ot milk
Eveiy particle of milk is
heated to not lower than 145
degrees F for not less than 30
minutes and promptly cooled
to 50 degiees F or lower to
destroy any harmful bacteria
that may be present without
aff’eting flavor or food value.
y
A -X?
Another method raises the
temperature of milk quickly to
at least 160 degrees F for not
less than 15 seconds, followed
by rapid cooling.
Pasteurization does not
change the flavor or the essen
tial and nutritive value and
goodness of milk.

DID YOU KNOW?
. . . That the dairy cow has
been working an eight hour
day for years’ She grazes for
four houis, averaging 40-70
nibbles every minute The next
four hours are spent chewing
her cud with her jaws and four
stomachs working every min
ute. After milking, she sleeps
all night, resting her jaws for
tomorrow’s eight hour work
day.
More than 100 food elements
are found m milk A quart of
milk provides, 82% of the day’s
needs of calcium,, 63% *of the
phosphorus, 40&~ ■of ' protein,
83% of riboflavin, 30% of vita
min A, 21% of calories, 22%
of thiamine.
In spite of being used and
abused by the human race, the
cow continues to provide man
with life itself.
• No wonder cows are in de
mand for zoos in city parks.
Parks are pieces of America
and the cow is America itself-
