The Experimental Farm at Nap- pan, Nova Scotia, has been conduct- ing feeding trials for the past five years comparing turnips With corn silage and sunflower silage for milk prggluction. TURNIPS VS. CORN VS; SUNFLOWER SILAGE Three expeirments were conduct- ed comparing turnips and cdrn. A total of 23 cows were fed for three weeks on turnips, three weeks on corn silage, then three on turnips! again, the grain and hay ration be- ing constant. The production of the third week in each period was used in computing the results of the trial. The average daily production when on turnips was 17.9 pounds milk and on corn silage 16.1 pounds milk while the cost per 100 pounds of milk was 81.61 and $1.69 for the two feeds respectively. _ F 1V8 trials were conducted com- paring turnips with sunflo“ e11 sil- age, in a similar manner. A total of 31 cows \\ as used. The axnelage daily production \\ hen tu1n1ps v» ere fed was 18.5 pounds and \1 1th sun- flower silage it “as 16.8 pounds milk. The cost p01 100 pounds milk was $1.57 .and $1.63 for the two i feeds respectively. Two trials. comparing corn \\1 ith sunfloxx 91's. \\ are carried 011. The. 13 cows on corn silage produced 15.8 pounds milk daily at a cost of $1.79 'p . . in The Hall and Empire omce between November fist and midnight, Tuesday, November 15th, 1927. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE per 100 pounds, while the same cows on sunflowers produced 16.2 pound 5 milk costing $1.80 per 100 po_unds. It was found that'the cows would not consume as much sunflower silage as they would turnips and that there was a greater tendency to go 011’ feed when on the silage ratio-n. In the years when corn gave a good yield and was well- cobbed as in 1924, this silage gave excellent results, and was a cheaper feed than turnips. It is such an uncertain crop, however, that it cannot be generally recommended. Turnips and sunflowers are almost certain to givegood yields, the av- erage at the Nappan. Experimental Farm for the five year period being 18.93 tons for turnips, 18.10 tons for sunflowers and 13.85 tons for corn. The cost of production was $3.71. $3.58 and $4.21 per ton for each: crop respectively. The ayeragedry matter yield per acre was for tur- nips. 4354 pounds, sunflowers 5430 pounds and corn 3600 pounds. The feeding trials showed that pound for ,pound the digestible nutrients in ’ sunflowers were apparently equal to turnips. This may be due partly, however. to the fact that the cows were following a turnip period with sunflowers and then turnips again and consequently kept up in their Iosi‘rfig' slightly in body weight. The growing of sunflowers neces- sitates a greater overhead expense 'â€"â€"‘v vâ€"â€" than does turnip production, a silo and cutter being essential for the former. Turnips require more field labor in hoeing but may be stored very cheaply in a pit or root cellar. I’ntil moredata is available. our re- commendations are in favor of turnips as a succulent feed for winter milk production. $10000 will be added to the First Prize of $3,000.00 n tne ' ° allf the list winning First Prize are re- £3 1’: 3:: tlfigiilluanglyfimpire 9'23.“ between November 16th -A‘ t 'Efini-gilâ€"ifiéfiicr 50th.
