HOW TO CROW UVE STOCK IN THE SOUTH.
VIII.—Why We Should Breed More Dairy Cattle.
By Tait Butler.
/-F ONE OF the duties of the
farmer is to produce food
- stuffs, we should breed more
dairy cattle, because the dairy cow
is the most economical producer of
human food of all the farm animals.
Such a dairy cow as any one might
breed, may produce 6,000 pounds of
milk in a year. If this milk has an
average composition of 12.83 per
cent solids, such a cow will produce
770 pounds of dry matter in one
year. If the milk be of average eora
posltlon, there will be in this 770
pounds of dry matter: about 222
poundB of fat; 213 pounds of casein
and albumen (proteid foods); 293
pounds of sugar (carbohydrates);
and 42 pounds of ash. A good steer
weighing 1,200 pounds, and dressing
64 per cent, would give a carcass
about equal in weight to the dry mat
ter in 6,000 pounds of milk, but ol
this carcass of 770 pounds, not over
40 per cent, or about 300 pounds, h
dry matter, and of this a consider
able quantity (bones, etc.,) Is not
eaten and digested by man.
To produce this 300 pounds of dry
matter the beef steer mast be fed
two or three years and then killed
whereas the dairy cow will go an pro
ducing her 770 pounds of dry mat
ter each year for five or more years
Since the dry matter of milk is ol
the highest food value, it follows that
if we are to be producers of human

food stuffs, we should breed ani
maintain more dairy cattle.
The Cow the Most Economical Food
Producer.
When the milk is consumed on
the farm, or when butter or cream
only are sold, the dairy cow is also
the most satisfactory animal to which
coarse farm products, or feedstuff*,
can be fed. Not only does she pice
good returns for feed consumed, but
the plant food in these feedstuff*
are largely retained on the farm
She la a large consumer of feeds, hut
she gives more In return than the
meat producing animals, and is.
therefore, able to pay more for the
feeds consumed. For instance, our
cheapest feeding stuff, cottonseed
meal, has already reached a price.
$30 to $35 a ton, above which the
fertilizer manufacturer or the feeder
of beef cattle will find difficulty in
going and maintaining his legitimate
profits; but the dairy cow can stitl
produce a profit from cottonseed
moo 1 ovon If It a A *■ n • a tin as
$45 a ton. The aame facta apply to
all other feedstuffa. The dairy cow
affords us the beet means of market
ing the coarse farm products or feed
ing stuffs, simply because she is the
most economical user of feedstuffa.
It, therefore, follows that If we are
to he producers of feeding stuffs,
and every farmer must be to main
tain soil fertility, then we should
breed and keep more dairy cattle.
We should breed more dairy cattle,
because while paying more for the
feeds consumed than any other farm
animal, she leaves from 85 per cent
to 95 per cent of the plant food*
contained In these feeds, on the farm
to enrich the soli and Increase future
crops. In butter production, when
the skimmed milk la consumed on
the farm, the drain on soil fertility
is reduced to the minimum.
Southern farmers have never fully
A .a A a A- AW A
eyiwvmivM tMO UUUUIO TtlU9 pOKSCfilKHj
by every product of the farm, capable
of being consumed by live stock
Even to this day certain so-called
teachers of agriculture are advocat
ing the use of forage crops and feed
ing stuffs as fertilisers, thereby Ig
noring their feeding value \V«
shall never utilise the products of
the farm to the best advantage until
we recognize and observe the fact
that no feed stuff should ever be used
as a direct fertiliser; but should first
be fed to some animal, bee a u so by so
doing, from 76 per cent to 90 per
cent of Its fertiliser value may be
obtained, and In addition, its feeding
value, which Is usually greater than
the fertiliser value. In fact, then
la evidence, notably that from the
South Carolina and Georgia Kspcrl
ment Stations, showing that the fer
tilizer value of the stable manure U
greater In Its power to Increase th«
yield from the soil, than Is the orlgl
nal feed consumed In making the sta
ble m&nnrM
Again, If we are to feed the far*
product* or feeding stuff* to live
stock, and we must to maintain soil
fertility, we must breed and keep
more dairy cow* because they are the
most economical users of feed stuffs.
