I'pon Thursday. May 29th, a meet
inn of the cattle Teeders of the
state as summoned by Professor
R. K. Bliss of the Department of
Animal Husbandry, Pnlverslty of
Nebraska To- this Invitation eonje
three hundred responded, represent
ing pnntleally all parts of the state.
.Most of the visitors arrived early
in the morning; and UtM the fore
noon visiting the buildings and look
ing over the stock and vorious ex
perimental plots on the State Farm.
In the afternoon a meeting was
held in the Stock Judging Pavilion.
Dean K. A. Burnett of the College
of Agriculture presiding In a
brief address h sighted the fact
that results so far obtained at tho
Kxpertment Stations in this sts: e
have shown that at the average
pric for feed and the price whi !
ahes were worth at weaning time,
tOgfltaiC w'th the market price of
three year olds as feeders. It bare
ly pays to grow the cattle in east
ern Nebraska. It was also found at
the North Platte Experiment Station
that larger profits have been made
by feeding calves and selling them
the following June when weighing
700 or 760 pounds than where large
cattle were fed out.
Professor Lee went back over the
results of the work done at the Ex
pert ment Station during the past ten
years by Professor H. R, Smith. The
conclusion from Professor Iee's fig
ures would show that alfalfa and
corn was the cheapest ration the
feeders had at their disposal. Pro
fessor Bliss then gave the results
of this year's experiments in which
forty-eight head of steers divided
into six lots of eight each had been
fed fof a period of one hundred and
fifty day Some of the lots receiv
ed silage along with the hay and
grain. These cattle- were bought in
i November at the South Omaha mar
ket weighing a trifle over 900 pounds
and cost. ti.2t laid down at Lincoln.
, They were divided evenly as to
'quality and size. The lot which
was fed on corn ami alfalfa hay
made the largest gain and the larg
est net profit per steer of any of
the lots. While this is but one test.
t till it conforms to the tests made
, in years gone by and verifies the
belief of most practical men that
: we in Nebraska can grow two of
i the best articles for cattle feeding
that exist.
