A large steel hood covers the flails for maximum safety and keeps flying ma nure low where the wind cannot carry it. We tested it on our torture track and tested it on farms in sub-zero weather to prove its ability to spread sloppy manure without build-up, as well as spread frozen manure. The New Idea Flail Spreader has a 130 bushel capacity, and a low 53% " profile for easy loading with barn cleaner or hydraulic loader. It has a water-repellent Penta-treated box, full length steel flares, and many other long life features. Heavy-duty conveyor is standard; extra heavy is optional. Only New Idea offers this years-ahead spreader and dares to back it up with a full-year guarantee the same as on all New Idea spreaders.

However, don't feed more than cattle will clean up. This increases your costs. Rec ords of Indiana beef cow own ers show a ration consisting entirely of premium quality legume hay would cost about $31 per head for a wintering period of five months. When only enough hay was fed to meet minimum nutritional re quirements, wintering costs were about $26 or a savings of $5 a head. If cows cannot get sufficient protein when there's a snow cover on the ground, feed some protein. The owner of these cows has spread protein cubes on the ground with the hay being fed. Once the hay is cleaned up it's easy for the cows to pick up the protein cubes. Making complete use of crop residues can be a big help in stretching feed supplies. Be sides, the cattle will pick up what little grain was left in the field. If you're interested in getting satisfactory gains on this type of feed you'll need to also provide some protein, though. Several companies now have protein blocks avail able that work well for cattle graxing stalk fields. Generally you can figure the cattle will consume about one pound of protein daily.
