other train sorghums are ahout equal.
An interesting thing in connection
with feeding wheat ia that the
shrunken grains are thought to be
higher in protein than the so-called
better quality of wheat.
Another fact not to be overlooked
in comparing wheat and corn to that
there nro four more pound* to the
bushel of wheat than corn, which
raises the feeding value abou ninety
per cent.
Most frmers claim that they get
hotter results from feeding whoet
when it is mixed with ground barley,
oats, ar other grain* becane: First,
no single feed, other things being
equal. Is as palatable to animals at
a mixture of feeds; second, when
mixed with other feeds, particularly
coarse foods, whoet doe* net hove e
tendency to form a pasty mass in the
animal’s stomach as when fed alone.
For horses and cows wheat l» rec-
ommended to be coarsely ground;
whereas for hog*, Booking may be
substituted for the grinding process.
However, perhaps the beet way to feed
whoet to hogs io to hove it coarsely
ground end then mix it with skim
milk. - The protein in wheat, like
that ef corn, is “unbalanced protein":
whereas, the protein in milk fur-
nishes the necessary requirements to
balance that ef the whoet.
At the present price of hogs, wheat
ia worth around a dollar a bushel
or at least one end one-half cents
per pound. Teat* carried out at the
Agrieuitural college in Nebraska in-
dicates that wheat' le a little better
then corn as a hog feed. .
Professor William J. Loeffel, head
of animal husbandry department, la
the authority for the statement that
many Nebraska farmers are finding
it very profitable to feed their whoet
to hogs. ■ ,
Whoet clone is not palatable to
moot cattle; but when mixed with
other grains, it has a feeding value
equal to the above. In Denmark,
ground wheat ia considered equal to
ground barley or oats for feeding
dairy cewa. Thar Dane mixta it with
ground hay er roots, thereby avoid-

Tho purpose of thio insect raising

to rid this country of one of it* ,

When the European corn borer woe 1
first discovered ia this country in

it existing here. But e few were
known in Europe, end species of these
insects were brought to thia country
for propagation.,

The low price of wheat is causing many farmers 4
to ask the question, “Why, how, when, and to what shall
I feed my wheat?’* The answer to the first question is
that wheat has a feeding value approximately equal to
corn or milo maize. It is higher in starch and crude
protein, but like corn, it is low in minerals and is only
about one-fourth as rich in fats as corn.
Ia total feed value, wheat sad ths

LUBBOCK, Sept 27TFoultn, tur-
key and egg shpments out of the
South Flalas fauatios during a year
amounts to a gross business of $8,-
000,000, Diek White, manager of th*
Lubbock Poultry and Egg company,
estimatea.
Three and a half million dollar*
worth of produce are shipped each
year by the three big firms operating
here in Lubbock, from the South
Plain* country. Mr. White estimated.
Two million dollars more are repre-
sented in the eggs (hipped and the
butterfat amount* to $5,000,000 more.
According to D. F. Eaton, county
agent, every county in the area has
shown remarkable increases in the
number of hens on-farms and the
production of eggs the past few
years.
“When I came here about six and
a half years ago," Mr. Eaton said,
“tho average flock on a farm would
run 86 to 166 hens. There were pot
many farms with over 106 hen*.
There were act as many farms as
there is at present. -
“Haar, I estimate the average farm
will have from 160 to 250 hens. Some
will run 20*. some 306 and some as
high M 060 aad 760 hens ia their
flocka. This county has about 2.500
farms. There were net over >.060
farms when l eame here," he Mid.
Mr. Eaton attributes the increase
la a Iarg* measure to the growth of
the hatchery business here aad over
the Plains county. “When I earn* '
kero Lubbock did not have a singis
hatehery. Now we have several
There are a number of butcheries in
other towns.
Another contributing factor is the
standardisation of the flocks, many .
farmers now paying mere attention ’
to the quality of their chikens. Still
another reason for the increased
number of floeka and the riae is the
modern poultry bouse* that have
been built and the many old ones
that have been improved. “Farmer*
are paying mere attention to the care
and feeding of their focks than they
used to," he added.
There has been a general reduc-
tion in the number of old stock car-
ried over into the fall and winter
srason. Farmers, the agent explain-
ed. have cut down the number of old
hens and are using mere young hen*.
