Excerpt: ...of taking nitrogen from the air, fixing it in the soil and furnishing it to the growing plants. Without the existence of nodules on the roots legumes do not grow Well, and, if they did, they would be no more valuable; than nonleguminous plants for feeding purposes, because no nitrogen would be gathered from the air to build protein in the plants. Potash and phosphorus are not taken from the air, but, because of the great depth to which legumes send their numerous roots, these two essentials for plant growth are brought to the surface and made available for other crops with less root system. The final value of the legume as a fertilizer is brought about by the decaying of the many fibrous roots, which process adds humus to the soil. Humus is not a fertilizing element but its value is physical in that it loosens the particles of earth and permits the air to enter, warms the soil and adds to its moisture-retaining efficiency. Great as are these values, much of the advantage gained by raising legumes is lost if they are sold in their raw state, for, although they leave as much nitrogen in the soil as is removed by the stems, each ton sold off the farm carries with it much potash and phosphorus taken from the earth. To be most valuable they must be fed to livestock, and the manure returned to the land. In the feeding of the legume the direct value becomes apparent, for the very nitrogen stored in the plant represents the protein which is the costly nutrient that is so essential in balancing rations, and the necessary nutrient from which bone, muscle, blood, hair, horns, and the proteids of milk are made. The legume is the only plant which can be grown upon the farm to eliminate or even lessen the necessity of purchasing high-priced commercial...

Excerpt: ...finds protein feeds becoming higher in price, making the raising of legumes the more advisable. As an illustration of the feeding value of legumes, it may be said that most of them are nearly equal ton for ton to bran, which today is so well recognized as a standard foodstuff for farm animals that the demand can hardly be supplied, even though the price has continually raised until now it sells for from $22 to $29 per ton. Four tons of leguminous hay is not an exceptional annual yield for an acre, and compared with bran at prevailing prices the money value of a season's crop can easily be estimated. Add to the estimate the richness that has been added to the soil by the legumes having grown there, and every thoughtful dairyman will put forth his best efforts to grow one or more of these nitrogen-gathering plants in the future. No dairyman who does not make use of these plants in his farming and feeding operations is taking full advantage of the opportunities at his disposal. A combination of corn silage, leguminous hay and good cows is one that cannot be equaled otherwise. Nearly every state experiment station has performed experiments that have shown conclusively the value of these crops as compared with non-leguminous grasses. Although each year finds a great increase in the acreage of legumes grown in all parts of the United States, they are not being grown as largely as they should be, and millions of acres where timothy and non-leguminous grasses are now growing should be converted into protein-producing areas to furnish the balancing power for the carbonaceous grains, such as corn, barley, kafir corn and other crops, that are so largely and necessarily raised. The chief reason no doubt, that the nitrogen-gathering plants are not...

Download or read book Keeping a Family Cow written by Joann S. Grohman and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cow is the most productive, efficient creature on earth. She will give you fresh milk, cream, butter, and cheese, build human health and happiness, and even turn a profit for homesteaders and small farmers who seek to offer her bounty to the local market or neighborhood. She will provide rich manure for your garden or land, and will enrich the quality of your life as you benefit from the resources of the natural world. Quite simply, the family that keeps a cow is a healthy family. Originally published in the early 1970s as The Cow Economy and reprinted many times over, Keeping a Family Cow has launched thousands of holistic small-scale dairy farmers and families raising healthy cows in accordance with their true nature. The book offers answers to frequently asked questions like, 'Should I get a cow?' and 'How Much Space do I need?' in addition to extensive information on: • The health benefits of untreated milk; • How to milk a cow effectively and with ease; • Choosing your dairy breed; • Drying off your cow; • Details on calving and breeding; • The importance of hay quality and how to properly feed your cow; • Fencing and pasture management; • Housing, water systems, and other supplies; • Treating milk fever and other diseases and disorders; • Making butter, yogurt, and cheese, and, of course . . . • . . . Everything else the conventional dairy industry doesn’t tell us! Now revised and updated to incorporate new information on the raw milk debate, the conversation about A1 vs. A2 milk, fully grassfed dairies, more practical advice for everyday chores, and updated procedures for cow emergencies. Keeping a Family Cow has not only stood the test of time, it still remains the go-to inspirational manual for raising a family milk cow nearly forty years after its first publication. Joann Grohman has a lifetime of practical experience that has been bound into this one volume and presented in the spirit of fun and learning.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Better Dairy Farming: The Breeding, Feeding, Handling and Care of Dairy Cattle Professor E. H. Farrington of the department of dairy husbandry at the University of Wisconsin asks his class of farm boys at the end of each term this question, "What languages do you speak besides English?" One boy answered, "I can speak a little Norwegian and a little German, and I understand horses and cows." That is the very object in writing this book. We want to make the language of cows a little better understood by the dairymen of this country. To know about cows, the farms and the best farm practices in different parts of our great country will make a man a better farmer on his own farm. With the reading of this book we hope that farmers may have their vision broadened and perhaps a suggestion will be found that will change a practice so that a little more money may be made and saved. At the time of writing this preface farming is said to be in a bad way. The lawmakers and the others are all busy trying to help the farmer. Some good will come of their efforts. We think, however, that the most good will come through the efforts of the farmer himself. He will build for himself on his own farm and will build for himself and for his neighbors when he joins with them in the community and state enterprises which he will help to build, at the foundation first, in his own community. Co-operative effort will make for "better farming, better business and better living." The dairy farmer is the best off of all. Conditions in Wisconsin and New York and the other dairy states show that. This is no time for anything but optimism because the demand for milk and dairy products is growing and the market for these is the foundation of the business. With the market for milk and dairy products becoming increasingly good the market for surplus dairy cattle will become better. The object in writing this book is to help some with all this.
