WHEAT YIELDS, AND BEEF PRODUCTION.

“Those 50 to 55 bushels to wheat yields don’t ‘Just grow’ any more than does a load of prime finished baby beeves. The cattle are never allowed to lose their calf fat, and are fed liberally of a balanced ration from the day they are born until they go into th& car for market,” says Clyde A. Waugh, in Farm and Fireside. “Record wheat crops must have plenty of a balanced plantfood ration to give them a quick start in the fall, to enable them to resist disease and insect attacks, to make enough growth in the fall to cover the ground before winter sets in, to start out early in the spring and to make a straight standing, early maturing, bumper crop of first quality.” _j
