SILAGE FOR.
- BEEF CATTLE.
'Tbs somewhat prevalent Idea among
fanners that' beef -cattle -fed on silage
do sot go to the block Is as good con
dition as .those fed -dry. . rations of
roughage has been: disproved -by a
series of important brejeBtlgatlons and
feeding tests of the . department of
agriculture. The great value of sllaga
as a meat producer as well as for dairy
purposes Is conclusively shown. In
the tests reported by Professor Boole
to .the bureau of snlmal Industry as
conducted a,t the Tennessee1' govern
ment experiment station with nine
groups of feeders, covering periods of
120 days' feeding for market, cattle
fed on stover, as.. the rough portion of
the ration made a good,, gain of. 1.27
pounds per day, but, those .receiving a
succulent ration did much better, mak
ing an average gain of 1.75 pounds per
day. The farmer .vbo feeds for the
market cannot afford. It Is stated, to
be without a alio. Silage makes a
most excellent feed for beef produc
tion and one that In the long run will
make an exceedingly cheap, pound of
gain by reason of the small amount of
concentrated feed stuffs, grain, cotton
seed meal, etc, required to be fed with
It v ..I , . . ..
- Tbe prejudice against silage for beef
cattle has undoubtedly come largely
from the demands of the butchers, who
have maintained that beef cattle so fed
were Inferior meat producers.. The Ira:
portant result, therefore, of the slaugh
ter test of these cattle Is found In the
fact that the silage fed cattle showed
the highest per cent of good meat, thus
overthrowing the Impression that such
cattle. win not "kill well.", The slaugh
ter test of fifteen dry fed cattle showed
a total of 8,106 pounds of good meat,
while that of fifteen succulent fed cat
tle was 8,083 pounds, a gain In favor of
the Bllage fed cattle of C77 pounds of
salable meat When the cattle In one
of the experiments were offered for
HI1JES OP nEEF.
Showing- Influence of dry and succulent
rations on the character of oarcaaa. ,
sale the butcher proposed to dlscrlml
Bate against those fed silage, maintain
ing that they would not dress ns well
as the others. lie was assured that If
the silage fed cnttle did not dress out
as well as the others he would not be
expected to pay i as high a price for
them. "The slaughter tests spoke for
themselves." said Professor 8oule, "and
sounded the deatnknell of a prejudiced
nd absurd belief." . -
Nor does the Item of feeding cost
show up to the disadvantage of silage,
bat the contrary. A pound of grain In
the stover fed cattle cost an average of
6.8 tents, while In silage fed cattle a
pound of gain under the same condi
tions cost an average of B OO, or a dif
ference of $1.70 per hundredweight
Silage, It may be generally remarked,
writes G. E. Mitchell In American Cul
tivator, has a very wholesome effect on
the handling qualities -of cattle, making
the bide soft elastic and flexible and
the hair glossy and oily to the touch as
compared with a coat that Is Inclined
to be rough, dry and shaggy with the
stover ted cattle.
