Feeders Day Is April 18 at Lincoln LINCOLN A review of ac complishments in beef cattle feeding research since the turn of the century will share top billing with a look into the fu ture at the University of Nebras ka's Golden Anniversary Feeder's Day set for April 18 at the ag ricultural campus here. Feeders Day is the outgrowth of an idea conceived by H. R. Smith, former professor of animal husbandry at the Univer sity, who in 1911 thought that farmers and feeders might be interested in .seeing the results of feeding trials of experimental cattle before they were market ed. After a half century, this re mains as the basic objective of the event, and today practically every experiment station doing beef cattle work holds one. Smith, later moved to the Uni versity of Minnesota as chair man of the animal husbandry department, and then became livestock specialist for the Great Northern Railroad and the First National Bank of St. Paul, which is concerned with trimming live stock losses incurred in handling and shipping. He retired in 1951 and now lives in Somerset, Mich. This year's program will be held in the Agricultural College Activities Building, home of the event except in the very early years, when feeders sat in wag ons and watched the experiment al cattle parade by. Feeder's Day has been held at the College every year since its inception except for one year during World War II when gas oline was rationed. However, a full program on Feeder's Day re search results was carried to livestock producers by radio, making it possiblbe to maintain the continuity of releasing re sults of feeding trials on an an nual basis. Some of the earliest beef cattle feeding trials carried out by the Nebraska Agricultural Experi ment Station involved "the feed ing of alfalfa hay and com stover with various combinations of grain and roots." While details of this year's program are not yet firm, attention will bs focus ed on differences exhibited in cattle on feed containing varying amounts of minerals, vitamins and various additives. A women's program, which has been a feature of the event since 1926, will be held again this year, in cooperation with the Department of Home Ec onomics and the Agricultural Extension Service. The central theme of the women's program In the 1920 s the use of meat and meat food products is still of major emphasis in plan ning this year's program. itwiiimitifinnr-fit-" -f - i i I "....It's a date!" i V l 1 1 Cass Drug DIAL South Bend Mrs. ess Fidicr Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Bent-; ley and family spent the week-j end in Omaha with Mrs. Bent leys sister, Mrs. Elmer Bonnie.'
