The following article la written by
Frit Knorr. of the Scottabluff exper
iment farm, 1'nltcd Stales depart
ment of Agriculture, for The Herald,
and Is an account of a trip taken by
him with a delegation of farmers:
Trip to the Feed Yards
On November 9 a delegation of
farmers visited a number of the lend
ing feed yards In the vicinity of
ScottsblufT, Nebr., In order to study
the various method of handling and
feeding sheep, cattle anil hogs, tin
this trip a little better than 55 miles
were covered, and then we were un
able to visit all of the yards as was
planned.
Thanks Is due to the business men
of Scottsbluff thut furnished the nec
essary autos for the trip, and the
men who gave so generously of their
time In taking the delegation over
the route. Also to the feeders, that
were kept from their work while en
tertaining th delegation and explain
ed their lines of feeding eeven to
the smallest detail.
The yards visited were: Sheep
feeders Messrs. Tom Tiller, W. II.
(lable, T. llalley and Haymond Bros.
Cattle feeders W. Barbour, T.
Shields. C. B. Sadns. and the sugar
Tartory. Hog feeder- U. S. Hunt.
In the report here given we shall
not make any direct quotations of
the feeders. In nearly nil cases they
have asked not to be thus quoted,
and we shall respect their wishes.
Kach feeder s operation is separ
ate, giving the readers an opportun
ity to study the vurious methods In
practice.
Feeding Sheep
We are feeding 1840 lambs. These
lambs were purchased In separate
lots but will average 60 to 62 lbs.
Twelve hundred came from Wy
omlng and cost $5.35, the remainder
of the llock being secured at Denver,
at $6.90, freight paid to the river.
We are now feeding all the buy
that they will eat and about 4 5
pounds of beets (half sugars). The
beets are thrown on the ground as Is
also the corn that we are feeding in
the ear. We figure that the lambs
are getting about three-fourths
pound of corn per day.
The yield of the half sugars is
very satisfactory. They cost about
I the same to grow as sugar neeis dui
they yield more. This year 18 acres
made an average of about 25 tons
per acre. 1 believe that the half su
gars are better feed than mangels,
and they keep better during the win
ter. !
Before we harvest the beets, the
tops are pastured oil. using a mova
ble wire feme to change the beet top'
immure. Y.s. we prefer the wire
fence to board hurdles, more easily
handled s.nd not so heavy. After,
the to;s iire eaten off we pull the
beets and haul them to the silo. H e
save the cos' of topping, which in
$10 per acre.
The la in Us would eat more beet rt
than we are feeding at this time, but
we llud that too many beets are hard
on their kidneys. They cannot stand
it.
Have had the lambs on alfalfa
pasture ami lost three from bloat
after that we took them off.
Last year we fed beet tops and
hay. and very little corn. Our lambs
made only a 15 pound gain and as a
result we broke even.
Some of the suggestions given by
the sheep feeders that are worth
reuienibreing :
Mr. Gable: "Kvery farmer should
feed at least one carload of sheep in
i order to get the fertilizer and dls
; pose of his hay. I have gained as
high as Ave tons of beets by apply-
ing the sheep manure. Sheep are
nice quiet animals to feed. They
can feed larger amounts after they
: learn t he business."
Mr. llalley: 'There is nothing dif
ficult or mysterious about feeding.
tJood Judgment and attention to the
work with quiet and careful handl
ing. Sculling anim.iln about that
are in the feed yard means failure."
Mr. Tiller: "Iive the lam dm wnat
this chopped the hay up in uood
shape. It cost considerably less
than $1 per ton for this operation.
As the hay was blown Into the barn,
syrup was applied by means of a
small force pump at the rate of 4 00
pounds to every to nof hay. As
cheap as hay Is. It does not pay to
chop It up like this as a hay saving
proposition but It does pay because
they eat more of it, and of course
waste less. When the hay Is as dry
as It Is now there Is little or no waste
from the feed racks, but once the
hay becomes wet and tough, then we
have much waste with wohle hay.
We are feeding beet tailings In
stead of the beet pulp. We can get
this cheaper and we believe that It
is a better feed. The 100 head that
we have on feed here consume four
tons per day and would eat more If
we had them.
We also haul some of the beet
tops from the Held, we find that by
hauling the beet tops they will feed
Just twice as far as where we pas
ture them.
Shortly, we expect to put the cat
tle on full feed, they will then eat
about 15 to 20 pounds of the hay and
the syrup. This hay Is cleaned up
as clean as the corn that they get.
We are feeding the cattle all of
the beet pulp that they will consume,
that Is about 113 pounds per day.
and then they have free access to all
the hay they care to eat.
We have Btarted to feed them sy
rup, we start them out on one-half
pound per day. This is gradually in
creased until they receive 5 pounds
which we consider a full feed. We
feed no gralu except when the cold
weather begins we feed cotton seed
cake, beginning at one pound per
day and Increasing It gradually un
til they get two pounds per day. On
full feed last year we fed 92 pounds
or beet pulp. 15 pounds hay. 1.97
pounds cotton seed cake and 5.87
(Hiunds of syrup.
It is not necessary to give the
pulp fed cattle any water, the pulp
containing enough to satisfy their
want.
The shrink In buying Is a matter
that should always be considered.
We think that a 12 hour shrink In a
dry lot Is fair to both buyer and sell
er. a trail of 20 miles without water
is also good acceptable shrink.
One mistake many of the small
feeders make Is to get a large a
mount of till on the cattle previous
to Khinment. Too much loose and
heavy bulky feed previous to .ship
ment is often the cause of much
j shrink. An animal when too full
will often get sea sick in travel and
this Is a heavy loss.
I Mr. Shields: "Beets are essential
to good feeding, and handy yards
I eliminate neglectful feeding."
I Mr. Barbour: "The best care thai
we can give an animal will give us
; the best returns."
I Chas. Andrews: Ueulrri: In
j feeding, all wants of the animal sat
isfied and knowing what you feed Is
'the success of feeding.'
Mr. Sands: "Get good stuff and
keep It agoing, you have to feed to
make beef, you cannot starve your
.stock and make a profit."

We are feeding about 500 head of
cattle. We experiment quite a till
in order to determine the best meth
ods of feeding. In these two lols
we have about 100 head of cattle
each. One lot gets beets (hair su

other pen gets tlie same amount oi

beets are doing the best, the reason
tor that is: In order to feed the Deets
whole we have to throw them on
the ground, to do this we throw
them on the pasture. The cattle
walk back and forth from the pas
