Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sheep Feeding and Farm Management This book is the result of an original investigation carried on by the author, covering a period of about four years. It is based on farm practices as they occur in the United States, - particularly in the Middle West, - and their relation to the feeding of sheep for market. Its purpose Is to furnish to those interested in the feeding of sheep for market, whether students or farmers, the information that will enable them to carry on the necessary operations profitably. The student desiring to inform himself regarding the most modern and profitable methods for buying, feeding, and marketing sheep, instinctively turns to the literature on the subject. Save for a few bulletins on experimental sheep feeding, he finds that the field has been practically untouched. He sees in our agricultural press frequent reports and comments that seem to point to this phase of farming as not only profitable but also sound, and advisable from the standpoint of the economical use of crops, the conservation of soil fertility, and the saving of labor. Naturally he desires a reliable and practical source of information on the subject. Hence to the student the author would commend these pages, trusting that in their study he will find the answers to his questions, and fact and plans that will aid him in his future farm operations.

Download or read book Feeds and Feeding Abridged written by W. A. Henry and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Feeds and Feeding Abridged: The Essentials of the Feeding, Care, and Management of Farm, Animals, Including Poultry, Adapted and Condensed From Feeds and Feeding (Eighteenth Edition) Farm animals are really living factories that are continuously con verting their feed into products useful to man. A most important fact is that a large part of the feed thus made useful is of such char acter that it cannot be directly utilized by humans. Among the products yielded by animals are such articles of human diet as meat, milk, and eggs, materials like wool, mohair, and hides, which meet other needs of man, and, of greater aggregate value than any one of these, the work performed by draft animals. Each year the farm animals in the United States yield over five billion dollars' worth of useful products - a sum almost equal to the value of all the crops harvested. As the population of our country increases, most naturally a smaller portion of the crops raised can be fed to animals and more will be con sumed directly by humans. This change must come with the ih creased demand for human food, since even high-producing animals can convert but a small part of their food into forms edible for man. However, not only is the number of farm animals failing to keep pace with-the increase in population, but the number of cattle and sheep in this country has actually decreased in recent years, and the number of swine has increased but little. This means that animal products can not long hold their present important place in our diet unless American farmers come to appreciate the advantages of stock farm ing and better understand the principles and methods which are essential to its success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jersey Cattle: Feeding and Management It would appear that the Jersey breed Of cattle has been kept pure for over a century. In 1789 the States of Jersey passed a stringent law prohibiting the importation of cattle from France, and although cattle could then be imported from England, and from the other Channel Islands, there are not many instances of this being done. Indeed the only case Of English cattle being imported for the purposes of breeding proved a failure, and it is believed the produce were all killed. The cattle of the Island were noted for the peculiar richness of their butter, and the Jersey farmer, conscious of possessing a breed so excellent for the production of rich milk and cream, was content to possess an ugly, ill-formed animal with flat sides, &c.
