Choice beef can be produced with less feed, and at a lower cost, than it Is produced by most feeders, thinks P. N. Flint, assistant pnh fessor of animal husbandry at the Kansas Agricultural college. ' Professor Flint believes In a less expensive method of fattening, in which grass is the principal diet. The common feeding practice of many of the farmers of the corn belt Is an expensive process. The cattle are fed during the winter months. Sheds have to be provided for shelter. The cost of hauling and feeding the roughage for the cattle when In a dry lot is not a small item. Bad weather Is another objectionable feature more feed ia required by a steer to make the same gain. The feeding practice for more profit Is this: Common feeders Cattle In thin flesh may be bought at a low prlceZLGel-- steers two orthree years old. Feed them plenty of roughage to keep them inood condition until they are turned out on grass. A few hours a day on pasture Is long enough at first, until "their systems get accustomed to the change.
