Buying Canned Meats : Home Canned Meats, Susan Z. Wilder

SDSU Extension Circulars

Canned meat products are not used as extensively as the canned fruits and vegetables, according to grocerymen. The potted meats are used more in the Summer for picnic lunches and emergency meals. There are a number of reasons for this. Rural homemakers can meat so that they have a ready supply. The commercially canned meats are fairly expensive. Generally, they are not labeled according to U. S. meat grades. According to reports, low quality meat is used. The homemaker can obtain very little information on the quality of canned meat from the label. However, the products sold in interstate trade …

Vitamin D In Milk, T.M. Olson, G.C. Wallis

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Milk still retains its enviable rating as our most nearly perfect food. It ranks alone as a superior food for infants, and is by no means of minor significance in the adequate nutrition of older children and adults. However, even with a liberal supply of milk, the problem of proper nutrition is not a simple one. A study of our public health statistics, and a consideration of the various factors stimulating refined nutritional research bear abundant evidence of the fact that our knowledge and practice of the science of nutrition is not as yet all that might be desired. The …

Buy Cereals Wisely : Some Timesavers In Baking, Susan Z. Wilder

SDSU Extension Circulars

The cereals have always been an important food. As different kinds of foods have become available they have taken a less important place though they are a staple article of diet today. In the more liberal diets they do not make up as great a proportion of the food as in the more restricted diets where they may make up 1/5 to 1/3 of the daily calorie requirements. The cereals are carbohydrates. They contain some protein scattered throughout the kernel but the largest per cent is located in or near 'the outer covering of the grain. Oatmeal is the richest …

Production Of Quality Milk And Cream On The Farm, T. M. Olson, C. C. Totman

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

High quality milk is milk of good flavor from healthy cows, milk free from dirt, and containing a small number of bacteria, none of which are harmful. Much of the milk as it comes from the cow is of high quality, but it does not always remain so because of conditions under which it is produced and handled. Hence much attention must be given to these phases of milk production if contamination is to be kept at a minimum. Milk of good flavor will greatly increase the consumption of market milk as well as dairy products made from it. Flavor …

Dinners That Satisfy, Susan Z. Wilder

SDSU Extension Circulars

The successful homemaker feeds her family simple, well balanced meals every day. The food she prepares, the way she serves it and the atmosphere she allows to grow up in her home as the interest centers in the meals, will determine very largely the family's happiness. Sufficient food must be served in well balanced meals to supply the body's hidden needs. The amount of food served is determined very largely by the activity of the family members. If the father and boys work outdoors at hard labor all day they will have to have three heavy meals. If there are …

Selenium In Proteins From Toxic Foodstuffs, Edgar Page Painter

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The importance of the selenium problem has been established. Knight (1) in an address before The Association of Official Agricultural Chemists summarized the progress made on the problem, conservatively emphasized its importance, and stressed the need for extensive research. It is a paramount problem not only in South Dakota, but in many other states as well.

Inexpensive Salads From Home Produced Products, Susan Z. Wilder

SDSU Extension Circulars

Salads of fruits and vegetables are a valuable addition to the dietary because they increase the use of "protective foods." "'The protective foods' are four types-milk, fruit, vegetables and eggs which enrich the dietary with calcium and vitamins A, C, and G. "Milk is a good source of calcium and vitamins A, C, and G and an outstanding source of vitamins A and G. "Prominence of these foods in the individual dietary and in the general food supply protects directly against dangers of nutritional deficiencies and helps also to afford the body a better measure of ability to protect itself …

Comparative Metabolism Of Several Calcareous Materials Used In Poulty Feeding, W.C. Tully, K.W. Franke

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

During the past few years inquiries have been made regarding the use of several native limestones of South Dakota as substitutes for imported oyster shell and other limestone products used in the feeding of poultry. As a result of these requests, a series of experiments were carried out and the results are herewith presented.

Wheat And Wheat By-Products For Laying Hens, W.C. Tully, J.B. Taylor

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Wheat is the second largest grain crop in South Dakota and is grown extensively in many parts of the state. It has long been recognized as being second only to yellow corn as an individual grain for poultry. Wheat bran and middlings have for many years been a recognized part of starting, growing, and laying mashes for chick and poultry feeding but definite experimental work on their actual individual values seems to be lacking. As wheat is grown on so many farms, particularly in certain sections in the state, and as poultry is kept on approximately 85 per cent of …

Better Rations, More Eggs, Greater Profits, W. C. Tully

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

Summary
Feeding Hens for Egg Production
The chief interest of poultry raisers is to receive a reasonable return from their investment over the costs of stock, housing, feeding, and labor. Proper feeding alone will not do this, as successful poultry production depends on four major essentials, together with many minor ones. These major essentials are:
(1) birds bred for egg production, or good breeding
(2)good housing
(3)proper feeding
(4)sanitation and management
Reasons for Feeding
(1) Maintenance, repair of body tissues, storing of fat.
(2) To supply heat and energy.
(3) For reproduction, or egg production.

Your School Lunch, Susan Z. Wilder

SDSU Extension Circulars

Boys and girls of fine physique are always admired. They are well, alert and eager to do their work and play. You want to be like them. Eating the right kind of food every day will do more than anything else to help attain that desire. You can make a start by studying these foods at school at lunch time. Not all boys and girls make a fine appearance. Reports from 1600 homes in South Dakota indicate that 20 per cent of the boys and girls in these homes have had repair work done on their teeth, that 21 per …

Oat Feed As A Substitute For Roughage, T.M. Olson

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Because of drought and large number of grass hoppers in 1931 farmers in many sections of South Dakota were without adequate roughage feed for their livestock. The cost of shipping and handling roughages such as hays makes them rather expensive to ship any great distance. The problem, therefore, of providing roughage which would carry the livestock through the feeding season of 1931 and 1932 at a reasonable cost was a vital one. One solution to the problem was the use of oat feed which could be purchased in most sections of South Dakota at about the price of wild hay. …

More information is given in regard to choosing and preparing these foods—for example which vegetables give high health values for their cost and how they may be prepared for every day meals.

The Influence Of Feed And Sunshine On The Vitamin D Content Of Cow’S Milk, Ben L. Robinson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

For the past several years there has been a growing tendency among dairymen, particularity those located near the large cities, to keep their cows in the barn much of the time. Under such a system of management the cows receive but little direct sunshine. In some localities it is also possible to find many cows which are fed the year around on dry feed receiving very little, if any, green food, either as soiling crops or as pasture. From many standpoints such practices are, of course, necessary and desirable, but from the standpoint of the nutritional value of the milk …

The Effect Of Milk Foam On Dairy Calves, T.M. Olson

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Many dairymen who would prefer to feed calves skim milk direct from the cream separator are reluctant to do so, because of the effects the foam, which normally accumulates on separated milk, may have on the calves. Despite this more or less prevalent opinion among calf raisers regarding the harmful effects of foam, the literature seems to contain no experimental work either refuting or corroborating this opinion. The foam on skim milk may affect calves in several ways:
1. In the physical appearance of the calves.
2. In the height of the calves at the withers.
3. In the gain …

Rye As A Fattening Feed For Cattle And Swine In South Dakota, J.W. Wilson, T. Wright

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

The growing of rye as a grain crop is practiced quite generally throughout South Dakota. Statistics issued by the State Department of Agriculture at Pierre show that there were over one-eighth as many acres of rye as wheat grown in 1930. About one-fifth of the total acreage is credited to the counties in the North Central and the Northeastern districts in the East River section, while the largest county acreage is credited to Tripp county in the South Central-district in the West River country. All counties with the exception of two are credited with rye acreage. Corn and barley are …

Preliminary Report: Feeding Flax Straw To Cattle, J. W. Wilson, T. Wright, F. Fern

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

Introduction: This circular gives the results of feeding flax straw to cattle. Reports show that flax was introduced into New England and Virginia, in the early colonial days, and grown chiefly for its fiber. Later its cultivation as a seed crop spread westward with the settlement of new lands. South Dakota ranks third among the states in the production of flax. In the statistical report, issued by the South Dakota Department of Agriculture, for 1930, we find that every county in the state is credited with growing flax. The largest acreage is reported from Perkins County in the West River …

Pork On The Farm : Dressing - Curing - Canning, F. U. Fenn, I. B. Johnson, Mary A. Dolve

SDSU Extension Circulars

The most popular meat in our South Dakota farm homes is pork. Hogs are produced in all sections of the state and for many of our farm families the hog provides the bulk of the year's meat supply. Every farm family could well afford to get its supply of meat from the livestock produced on the farm. Whenever the farmers of South Dakota market their fat hogs and then buy what pork is needed in the home, they are overlooking an opportunity of saving several dollars and of providing their table with good meat products that can readily be had …
