Mixed in the rations and fed free choice salt serves to assure ef- ficient production of meat, milk, wool and work. Adequate salt, or its two ele- ments, sodium and chlorine, are vital to the health, growth and re- production of a all classes of = tivestock. In- deed, some an- imals will die it denied sup- plcmental salt © [or lengthy periods. This was dramatic- ally demon- Riiod in ie fae search with : dairy cattle at Dr. Bohstedt Cornell University within the last fe 7 vears. Countless research projects have shown that the various classes of livestock suffer retarded growth, poor reproduction and losses from generally poor health when denied salt in their rations. For instance, a studv at Purdue University showed _ that salt-fed . pigs gained two-and-a-half times as fast as pigs fed identical ra- tions but denied salt. Besides its vital role in animal nutrition salt serves many pur- poses in livestock * management and general farm use, Salt becomes a labor saver on rangelands where, mixed with protein supplement, it controls the daily supplement intake to the desired levels for self-fed cat- tle and sheep. The feed may be put out once a week or even less often, in contrast with daily feed- ing required when salt is not used as a "regulator." "Since livestock will consume a remarkably constant amount of salt each day and then retire from the salt or salt feed--this makes salt-regulated sclf feeding prac- tical--it is also used as a carrier of medicines, minerals and other : | periments with cele . | wheat and oats, as well as man Salt Plays a part in _conserva- tion too. Placement of the salt and mineral boxes is often used as a conservation measure to aid in controlling the grazing pres- sures. "As a condiment, salt is used to increase the consumption of rather unpalatable feeds, often permitting the use of feeds which would otherwise be wasted. In some areas salt is used in soil amendment, principally East of the Mississippi. Experiments at the University of Wisconsin showed that sodium in the soil produces a marked increase in the yield and qualit y of many crops. Common stock salt was used as the sodium source in ex- , 'barley, other crops. The amount of salt (200 to 800 pounds per acre) de- pends on soil conditions and other plant foods to be applied. Recently, salt has been re- ported an aid to fish growth in farm ponds. Some South Caro- lina farmers having trouble de- spite recommended pond fertili- zation practices reported in- creased fish growth with the "add sodium" remedy suggested by Clemson authorities.-The farmers provided added sodium in the form of mineralized livestock salt blocks at the rate of one 50-pound block of salt -per-acre of pond surface, applied every three or four months, 'These are just a few of the many uses of salt on the farm. EY Question: Is there any feed value in thistles? Answer: Yes, there is consider- able isd value in thistles, as there is in a good many other weeds provided they are har- vested or fed at a relatively Jeune stage of growth. Weeds, at times do not differ greatly in theiz com- position from ordinary Yorage crops such as the grasses. About the best way of making use of weeds is to ensile them, and they are regularly ensiled right along animal nceds. with a corn or hay crop.
