. Bulletin : report of Agricultural Experiment Station, Agricultural and Mechanical College, Auburn, Ala. Agriculture -- Alabama. 35 CottonseeJ meal $ per ton Cottonseed 14. 00 per ton ''Caddo" cake per ton Cottonseed cake per ton ; Cottonseed hulls per ton ' Damaged hay 5. 00 per ton Cowpea hay 10. 00 per ton Pasture 50 per month per steer The above represents the prices of the purchased feeds laid down on the farm; the farm was fourteen miles from the railroad station. The cottonseed cake, which had been broken into nut size and sacked, was purchased from the Epes Cotton Oil Co. of Epes, Alabama. This caKe can be purchased in the large cake size, just as it comes from the. Lot 3.—End of winter 1908. Feed, peavine hay and range. Total winter gain of each steer, —9 pounds. Total cost of wintering each steer, $ press, for about two dollars a ton cheaper than in the nut size. Some feeders find that it pays to break the cake on their own farms. The cake is the same thing as the cotton- seed meal, except that it is not ground into a meal. There are several advantages in feeding cake in place of cotton- seed meal—especially in summer feeding. A rain does not render the cake unpalatable; bi:t it will often put the meal in such'a condition that the cattle will not eat it. Again, no loss is incurred with the cake during windy days; cottonseed" meal, when fed in the open pasture, is wasted on account of the winds. Furthermore the cake requires chewing before.
