Scatter Manure for
Benefit of Pastures
On farms where there is sufficient
stable manure to top-dress pastures,
there is some doubt as to best meth
ods of using it to the benefit of pas
tare, without being in the way. The
manure for this purpose should be
very fine. C. W. Gay, animal hus
bandman, Ohio State university, gives
the following sensible advice:
“Top-dress pastures in fall or early
spring. The manure of one kind of
stock should not be put on sod to be
grazed by that same kind of stock.
Germs of tuberculosis and abortion
disease may infect the manure of eat-
tle and spread to stock on pasture. In
the same way sheep and hogs may be
come infested with parasites if grazed
on grass top-dressed with sheep or
hog manure. But the parasites of
sheep do not infest hogs and vice
versa. Cattle manure had best go on
corn grofnd, or other ground to be
plowed, while cattle pastures may be
top-dressed from either the horse, hog
or sheep barns”
An old plan which still holds good,
is to break up and scatter the large
pieces of dry cow manure from the
places where dropped. We knew one
farmer who, in walking about the
stations, have shown that considerable
calves fed six and one.half to seven
months gained almost as fast and were
practically as fat when fed approxi
er calves that ate from a self-feeder.
years out of three.
Lack of Protein Cause
of Rooting by Pigs
Pigs fed a ration deficient in pro
tein rooted more and more as the
length of the feeding period extended
at the Ohio experiment station. Pigs
which had a good ration with plenty
of protein and salt rooted very little,
according to W. L. Robinson, report
ing his year's research work.
Fish meal again proved to be the
most economical protein supplement
for corn fed to growing pigs. Min.
erals added 18 per cent gain when fed
with corn alone and reduced the feed
required 13 per cent. No protein sup-
plement was used,
Ground oats were more productive
than whole oats with tankage and al
falfa. A ration of ground corn, oats,
tankage and minerals proved to be
more p.ofitable than the corn-oat com-
bination. Cost of prodoction was
£602 a hondred. Hulling oats was
not profitable for pigs.

Beef Rations
Shelled corn or ground corn and cob

ley and a limited amount of whent
may be used with corn for fattening
steers but should be ground. Oals

for sowing a mixture of oats, peas and
veteh (O.1.V.) for silage or hay. The
mixture used was two bushels of
oats, one bushel of peas antl one-half
bushel of vetch per acre. The seed
was sown on six different dates each
year, at intervals of seven days. The
average date of the first seeding over
a six-year period was May 23. The
average date of the last seeding,
June 27.
The experiments showed that good
yields may be grown either for silage
or hay: that the earlier seedings pro-
duce the better yields; yet very good
results may bg obtained even from
seeding later in the summer. Hence,
the erop may be grown even on low-
lying land, slow to dry up in the
spring.
