Farm Sheep Facts, M. A. Alexander, W. W. Derrick, W. Tolman
Farm Sheep Facts, M. A. Alexander, W. W. Derrick, W. Tolman
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
This circular discusses the sheep industry, recommendations for care of ewes, rams, and lambs, shearing and wool, and showing sheep.
History Of Farm Land Prices In Eleven Nebraska Counties 1873-1933, Eleanor H. Hinman
History Of Farm Land Prices In Eleven Nebraska Counties 1873-1933, Eleanor H. Hinman
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The subject of farm land price is intimately intertwined with the economic and social welfare of farm people, and even with the financial structure of the nation. A detailed, year-by-year record of farm land sales and prices from several typical Nebraska farming areas over a 61-year period may throw light on the behavior of land values in the counties studied and in similar farming areas, and may help towards supplying a better basis for land price analysis and forecasting than now exists. This bulletin presents such a record for 11 Nebraska counties. It is based on 76,544 true sales of …
Effects Of Inflation And Deflation Upon Nebraska Agriculture, 1914 To 1932, H. Clyde Filley
Effects Of Inflation And Deflation Upon Nebraska Agriculture, 1914 To 1932, H. Clyde Filley
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
This study attempts to give the effects of war-time inflation and the subsequent deflation upon Nebraska agriculture. It presents statistical evidence of what happened. It is too late to prevent the present depression. Information concerning the situation may aid in promoting recovery. It is hoped that a knowledge of the inflation of 1916 to 1920 and the depression following may aid in avoiding the making of similar errors in the future.
Farm Mortgage History Of Eleven Southeastern Nebraska Townships 1870-1932, Eleanor H. Hinman, J. O. Rankin
Farm Mortgage History Of Eleven Southeastern Nebraska Townships 1870-1932, Eleanor H. Hinman, J. O. Rankin
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
It is believed that a study of a complete record of all farm mortgages for a typical although very limited Nebraska farming area from 1870 through 1932 may be of interest (1) as a sample of the farm mortgage history of the western part of the corn belt, (2) as a contribution to analyzing some of the sources of agricultural credit and the use made of them, (3) as an illustration of the relation of farm mortgages to land and commodity prices, farm income, and banking resources, and (4) as an example of the mortgage problems of corn belt farmers …
Economic Aspects Of Contagious Abortion In A Dairy Herd, Department Of Animal Husbandry
Economic Aspects Of Contagious Abortion In A Dairy Herd, Department Of Animal Husbandry
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The object of this study is to present the measurable losses due to abortion in a dairy herd of high-producing ability over a period of approximately one-third of a century. The records available provide a rather complete history of what has taken place.
Turkey Production, F. E. Mussehl
Turkey Production, F. E. Mussehl
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Whatever problems turkey production presents, lack of demand for roast turkey is not at this time one of them. Turkeys rate so high in popular esteem that very rarely indeed do prices fall below that of dressed chickens and usually the best grades are 12 to 15 cents per pound higher during the holiday season. The world of commerce has become quite complex but the consuming public still has one clear way of speaking to producers. In the language of the dollar we are apparently being asked to raise more turkeys.
Better Rations - More Eggs, F. E. Mussehl
Better Rations - More Eggs, F. E. Mussehl
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Well-bred and well-fed hens are conceded to be economical producers of a very wholesome food product, eggs, but our hens are not miracle workers and they insist on the right kind of raw material for building the egg. Nebraska poultry growers fortunately have all the natural feeds - corn, wheat, oats, barley, and dairy and packing house by-products - readily available at lower cash prices than prevail in most other states, and so our special problem is that of combining them so that eggs may be produced at the lowest cost per dozen.
Selection, Breeding, Methods Means More Milk, H. P. Davis
Selection, Breeding, Methods Means More Milk, H. P. Davis
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Milk good cows. It pays if you know how. Good dairy cows will always make money. Scrub, poor, or common cows never bring a good profit and usually cause a loss. Why waste feed and labor on inefficient producers, the kind that never make a satisfactory profit? Join a cow testing association. Let the tester keep books on your cows and let the milk scale and the milk sheet point out the money makers. Improvement comes only from selection and breeding.
Dairy Calf Care And Management, H. P. Davis, R. F. Morgan
Dairy Calf Care And Management, H. P. Davis, R. F. Morgan
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Calf raising begins before the calf is born. A cow that is healthy and in good physical condition will, in all probability, drop a strong, vigorous calf. The feeding and care of the cow before calving is therefore of the greatest importance for the future development of the calf.
Feeding The Dairy Cow, H. P. Davis
Feeding The Dairy Cow, H. P. Davis
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Cows produce milk from feed and water only. Therefore feed in proper quantity and quality is usually the limiting factor governing a cow's production up to the limit of her capacity.
Better Sires -- Better Stock: Build Better By Breeding, H. P. Davis
Better Sires -- Better Stock: Build Better By Breeding, H. P. Davis
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Economy and logic indicate that the most satisfactory method of obtaining higher-yielding dairy cattle is to breed them. Nebraska raises the feeds - corn, oats and alfalfa - that will grow dairy cattle and can raise them as cheaply as any region. The method is simple. Use purebred dairy sires on the present cows. By the use of good purebred dairy sires great improvement can be obtained in a single generation.
Marketing Nebraska Potatoes, J. O. Rankin
Marketing Nebraska Potatoes, J. O. Rankin
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Marketing Nebraska potatoes is no less important than raising them. It is often much more difficult, yet the pay for this service is grudgingly given. Failure to secure a good market causes more men to hesitate to enter or stay in the potato business than field risks. The full usefulness of the potato has not been secured until it is on the consumer's table. Every process necessary to get it there is a useful and productive process and the grower is no less productively engaged when working to find a market or to get these perishable wares into it than …
Purebred Sires Effect Herd Improvement, M. N. Lawritson, J. W. Hendrickson, W. B. Nevens
Purebred Sires Effect Herd Improvement, M. N. Lawritson, J. W. Hendrickson, W. B. Nevens
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
The real worth of a sire for the dairy herd can be established only when production records of the progeny are available for comparison with those of the preceding generation. A study of the following three sires which have been in service in the University of Nebraska dairy herd should be of interest to the Nebraska dairyman wishing to improve his own herd. This experiment indicates that the apparently high cost of a good herd sire is more than outweighed by the increase in the value of the progeny.
Farm Types In Nebraska, As Determined By Climatic, Soil, And Economic Factors, R. R. Spafford
Farm Types In Nebraska, As Determined By Climatic, Soil, And Economic Factors, R. R. Spafford
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
This bulletin treats chiefly of Nebraska agricultural areas as determined by climatic, soil, and economic factors. Most of the subject matter centers about the kind of farm crops grown and their yields. Cultural practices applied to crops are only incidentally considered. Most of the data used are from the Thirteenth Census of the United States and cover the crop year 1909. The small amount of data not derived from this source comes largely from field studies in this State and is used merely to support certain methods of treating census data.
From Car Door To Consumer, H. C. Filley
From Car Door To Consumer, H. C. Filley
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
The Nebraska College of Agriculture and the Bureau of Markets of the United States Department of Agriculture conducted during 1916 an investigation to ascertain the extent to which merchandise is sold from the car and the advantages and disadvantages of this method of marketing. The practice is so extensive that it was soon found necessary to limit the study to apples and potatoes.
