FEEDING SUGAR BEET PULP In bulletin No. 90 of the Utah experiment station, there are some interesting statements regarding the feeding value of beet pulp. It is shown that at the Colorado station five milk cows were feed 24 pounds of beet pulp for six weeks in addition to hay and grain. Then for five weeks 12 pounds of sugar beets were substituted for the beet pulp. The average weekly gain on beet pulp was 62 pounds and on sugar beets one-fifth pound. The average weekly milk yield on beet pulp was 131 pounds and on sugar beets 127.4. Over three times as much profit was derived from feeding 24 pounds of beet pulp per day at $1 per ton, than from feeding 12 pounds of sugar beets at $4 per ton. The experiment indicated that with butter at only 20c per pound, the sugar beet pulp fed in such quantities was worth $2.61 per ton. At the Michigan experiment station beet pulp added to a mixed ration of hay and grain increased the milk flow. The California experiment station reports most favorably on pulp as a cow feed. When 20 to 80 pounds of pulp were fed per day there was a saving of 4 to 14 pounds of hay. The pulp had a most beneficial effect on the milk yield. Most of the cows were decreasing in milk flow at the time the pulp feed began, after which there was an increase. A good flow was maintained through INTEREST Account. $17,280.95, consists: short $12,030 95 bonds... 5,250 00 $17,280 95 NUMER'S ACCOUNT sum- $3,761 13 amers.. 560 50 from $3,200 63 STOCK At there are now issued as sugar, 8004 Shares of the Company, as fellow stock...7,984 Shares The Stock, 20 Shares —8004 Shares It charged to Pumping 22,770.51, consists of the placing a 60 horse-power Engine with a 90 horse-same make, and an addi- will be incurred in re- 60 horse-power engine to join the future.

The California experiment station reports most favorably on pulp as a cow feed. When 20 to 80 pounds of pulp were fed per day there was a saving of 4 to 14 pounds of hay. The pulp had a most beneficial effect on the milk yield. Most of the cows were decreasing in milk flow at the time the pulp feed began, after which there was an increase. A good flow was maintained through the whole period of pulp feeding, but there was a considerable decrease after its close. The pulp did not effect the percentage of fat in the milk. At the Utah experiment station the cows there have been fed on sugar beet pulp for some considerable time. The pulp has never yet affected the quality of the milk unfavorably, but has exercised a most healthful effect on the cows and served to increase the milk flow. With these facts in mind it seems that the Utah farmer can do no better than to obtain the sugar beet pulp from the factories, keep a number of dairy cows, and return the fertility already spoken of to the farm. Experiments conducted in the feeding of beet pulp to steers, sheep and hogs, have proved no less satisfactory. At'the Logan sugar factory Mr. Hans Larsen has fed thousands of sheep and steers for shipment to the Pacific coast. He has found pulp a very profitable feed and he values it at $2.50 per ton. His operations have been successful. He feeds Lucern and pulp regularly twice a day in open yards and only such quantities are given as will be eaten up in a few hours. The farmers in a great many localities in this state could do no better than to devote their entire attention to this line of farming. A farmer who owns 20 acres of good beet land with a few acres of pasture, with about 15 or 20 head of cows, is an independent man, with a constant income of $150 to $200 a month every month of the year. The keep-consumed with the chocolate said that over 200 short tons of chocolate creams alone are consumed New York daily. Included is a considerable amount of grades, some of which at retre- nearly a dollar a pound The value of chocolate is thought some to lie to a certain extent nutritive value, as well as pleasant flavor, and of the new value of sugar we have unique knowledge now coming in from every direction.

A farmer who owns 20 acres of good beet land with a few acres of pasture, with about 15 or 20 head of cows, is an independent man, with a constant income of $150 to $200 a month every month of the year. The keeping of the cows on the farm will serve to keep up the fertility of his land and thus he can hand the farm down to his sons in as good condition as far as fertility is concerned as when he took it in its virgin state. Since the sugar beet factories are pretty well established in various localities of the state, we regard the matter of most vital importance, that of returning of sugar beet pulp to the farm and feeding it to dairy cows. We have talked over this matter considerably with farmers during the summer, and find they simply have not taken the time to haul it away. If they can be brought to realize that it is worth several times its cost to them, then we see no reason why its use could not be more general. It is certainly a well established fact that beet pulp is an excellent substitute for part of the hay and grain for milk cows and we look forward to its more extensive use.—The Desert Farmer. SUGAR AND CHOCOLATE Few persons have any idea of the present enormous consumption of chocolate in the United States and of the amount of sugar incidentally ing its impression upon the people as it has. It is that in New York, even among poorer classes, many a meagre eon is supplemented with cents worth of chocolates on kind, experience indicating consumers the judiciousness investment. The cheaper give these chocolate confections the largest per centage of sugar and glucose, and the grades the largest percent chocolate. It is presumed per cent of the chocolate that daily in New York goes other points, and in fact New ships chocolate to all parts world, competing successfully the best work of the Frenchfectioners.

Gates, the convention closed with nearly 600 in attendance, and when the convention makes its bow to Cheyenne, Wyo., a year hence, there will be still more. This congress has created a permanent secretaryship, salaried, inaugurated a system of annual dues and life memberships, and established a bureau of information which will instruct the membership in all discoveries and developments in the science of arid land culture. The congress has been very moderate in its requests for legislation. A law increasing the acreage of homesteads in the arid region from 160 to 320 acres; the establishment of more experimental farms by the States, and the boring of experimental wells at State expense, are the principal boons asked from the lawmakers. APPROVE FORESTRY Alternate cropping and fallowing of dry land was generally endorsed. Deep plowing and frequent cultivation were insisted upon, and one of the Utah delegates convinced the farmers that there is more danger of overseeding than of underseeding in planting what Forty pounds to the acre was the exact amount recommended by the speaker.

An attempt to implicate the congress in the controversy over the policy of the government with regard to the forestry service proved unsuccessful. A resolution from the committee on resolutions, endorsing the efforts to preserve the forests and thus conserve the moisture, called forth from Daniel Harrington of Utah a criticism of restrictions placed upon stock grazing upon public ranges. The motion to recommit the resolution was made, but the congress, taking the view that water is more important than grazing from a farming standpoint, declined to tamper with the committee report and adopted it overwhelmingly. GRATEFUL TO WILSON Other resolutions commendatory of government activity in behalf of agriculture, including one of gratitude to Secretary Wilson for his interest in dry farming were adopted. Prof. E. H. Webster of the Department of Agriculture read an interesting payer on dairying under dry farming conditions, and W. C. Barnes, inspector of grazing, spoke on the relation of dry farming to the livestock industry. Mr. Barnes told of the settlement of Eastern New Mexico and the success of dry farming, a success that has driven thousands of sheep and cattle from their range, a loss to the stockgrowers, but a gain to the nation. The executive committee invited Delegate J. G. McCabe of Arizona to preside over the closing sessions. Cheyenne, after a spirited contest with Douglas, Ariz., was awarded the next session of the congress.
