at their annual mect- at sharon last week the beef itself however didnt reed much chef bill suther land and howard stiver serv ed up three 33 lbs roasts to perfection there was lots of discu mon on marketing breeding prices and feeding gerald graham of ldora was elect ed president of the associa tion with grant burroughs of klcinburg as vice presi dent on feeding beef it is per haps timely to summarize some of the results of re cent research first corn silage is without a doubt the beef feeders best friend one test compared silage with grain corn for market steers the grain- fed cattle gained about half a pound iiioc per day but those on silage put on gain at 13 cents a pound while the grainfed group had a cost for feed of nearly 20 cents another test compared corn silage with pasture 1050 lbs ql beef were ob tained from an acre of sil age compared to 300 lbs from an acre of pasture the profit per steer was higher for the pasturefed group but the profit per acre was about siooq higher for corn silage feed addities are in the beef picture too the really consistent good results only comes from adding stilbes- trol or synavex feed effici ency improvement of from tea to twenty percent is al most a sure thing the experience with vi tamins and antibiotics isnt nearly as clear cut one test using vitamin a with on tario bred steers showed tliat it dint improve either rate of gain or feed effici ency western cattle may respond to extra vitamins but apparently ontario cat tle do not aureomycin had no consistent results in tests at guclph either farmers week at oac

garden soils arc often too low in organic matter and fail to give proper aeration or drainage a mixture sug gested by horticulturists with the ontario depart ment of agriculture com bines seven parts compost or good garden soil two parts organic matter wellrotted leaf mold or peat one part wellrotted manure and two parts building sand its a good idea to add a- bout half a 4inch pot of superphosphate to every bushel that you prepare if the soil is low in fertility add onequarter of a 4inch pot of complete fertilizer and the same amount of su perphosphate per bushel be sure to mix well t9 have the right soil moisture for potting make sure that the soil just holds together when you squeeze it this picture was taken back in 192s the team is a fine pair of clydesdale three year

area wide choice of feeders all feeder systems look good but it is hard to know which is best for your oper ation feed carts chain and slats conveyors and shuttle- stroke feeders are only three choices fenceline feeders filled by a selfloading wag on and lazysusan feed bunks around silos also of fer laborsaving features according to wrubleski extension neering specialist ontario department of agriculture the simplest type is an auger usually 9 inches in diameter rotating down a feed bunk between two 2 x 10 planks above the bottom of martin n erfe- the trough raising and low ering the auger and planks controls the amount of sil age spread and the feed bunk can even be 150 feet long the advantages mr wrubleski relates are its low installation price and ease of expansion however the high power require ment 2 hp per 50 feet and possible feed jamming in the first section of the feeder as the motor starts up are not in this augers favor also only one group of cattle can be fed at this feed bunk another type is the tube- type feeder the auger rotai tes inside a metal tube notes mr wrubleski some feed openings are regularly spaced along the tube oth ers offer simultaneous dis tribution along the augers length by spirally placed holes one type has openings on the top of the tube so that when the tube is full it can be rotated to dis charge silage along the en tire bunk in deciding your feeder set up the overhead-swinging- arc feeder also offers ad vantages in this type a sta tionery conveyor carries the feed to a pivoting auger en closed in a pipe the deliv ery end of this auger then rides back and forth along a track over a semicircular bunk jot this down miss street we have made arrangements with kw betz construction co ltd to commence renovating plans in feb
