The Agricultural Experiment sta tion of Nebraska is doing some good, and in press bulletin No 11, raising calves for profitable beef production, an account by particulars is given that would doubtless be profitable to farm ers in general if they would apply the facta there set forth. We notice that the feed for the young calves was six pounds of alfalfa hay each day with one pound mixed feed composed of one pound of corn and oats ground together, of which L3 oat3 and corn by measure. 1 pound bran and pound oil meaL The net result is stated thus: Each 10)1 pounds of gain was at an expense of 5S. The average daily feed ration for 160 days cost say .G2t cents per day, with compensating average gam cf L45 lb. per head per day, which at 34-50 per cwt. would be worth .0657, practically a profit of 150 per cent oc cost of feed con sumed. With careful attention to de tail there is certainly an adequate profit in rasing calves for beef under present conditions in eastern Nebraska. Mnch credit for results must be given to the good blood of the calves, and the gain in weight at low cost is largely due to the feeding of alfalfa. Thz Jocsaz. be lieves that if Nebraska farmers can ever get a fairly good start with alfalfa, their way to success is clear and the result sure. 'The grass of a country is its first wealth."
