  • Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Boren, F.W.; Koch, B.A. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1961)
    In previous tests where grain intake was held at the same level, finely ground pelleted sorghum grain has produced larger and more efficient grain than rolled sorghum grain. This test was conducted to study the value of ...
  • Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W.; Tsien, W.S. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1960)
    Twenty Hereford steer calves were divided as equally as possible on the basis of weight and conformation into two lots of 10 animals each. The average daily rations are shown in Table 22 for the wintering and fattening ...
  • Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W.; Tsien, W.S. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1960)
    This is a progress report of another test to further evaluate methods of sorghum grain preparation. Twenty of the heaviest steer calves purchased for experimental work were divided into two lots of 10 animals each. The ...
  • Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W.; Cox, R.F. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1959)
    Forty Hereford heifer calves from the same herd were divided as equally as possible on the basis of weight and conformation into four lots of 10 animals each. Animals in all lots received all the sorghum silage they would ...
  • Boren, F.W.; Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F.; Hay, W.H. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1958)
    One of the major problems confronting cattlemen is control of occurrence of respiratory diseases such as the shipping fever complex, colds, nasal congestion, and pneumonia. These respiratory conditions .are especially ...
  • Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W.; Carmack, B.D. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1960)
    The Hereford steer calves used in this experiment were assigned to experimental lots randomly according to weight. They originated near Paducah, Texas, and graded USDA Good as feeders. All received the same basic ration ...
  • Boren, F.W.; Anthony, H.D.; Kelley, D.C.; Nelson, D.L.; Smith, E.F.; Wearden, S. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1961)
    This is the second year in which an attempt was made to determine some basic facts related to shipping fever and shipping shrink in weaned stocker calves. As in the previous years, the calves used in this study were from ...
  • Smith, K.F.; Boren, F.W.; Richardson, D.; Loeppke, D.W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1965)
    The trace minerals, cobalt, iodine, copper, and zinc, were added to a prairie hay-limited sorghum grain ration in an effort to improve utilization of prairie hay. Since increased quantities of urea are being successfully ...
  • Boren, F.W.; Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F.; Smith, J. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1959)
    One of the major problems confronting cattlemen is control of the occurrence of respiratory diseases such as shipping fever, colds, nasal congestion. and pneumonia. These respiratory conditions are especially troublesome ...
  • Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Richardson, D.; Boren, F.W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1962)
    Twenty good to choice Hereford steer calves from near Ft. Davis, Texas, were randomly divided into two lots. One group served as the control: the other was treated in a similar way except that each animal received 70 mgs. ...
  • Smith, E.F.; Boren, F.W.; Richardson, D.; Kramer, J.E. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1963)
    The 60 steer and heifer calves, six steers and four heifers per lot, used in this experiment, were good to choice grade Herefords from near Fort Davis, Texas, and were assigned on a random-weight basis to their treatments. ...
  • Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Richardson, D.; Boren, F.W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1960)
    Forty-four good-to-choice Hereford steer calves from near Fort Davis, Texas, were randomly allotted according to weight to three treatments. All lots were fed the same high roughage rations. They received per head daily: ...
  • Richardson, D.; Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Boren, F.W.; Ward, J.K. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1961)
    Three lots of 10 heifer calves each were fed the same ration except for the added enzyme preparations. Ingredients and average daily consumption are show in Table 19. Lot 1 served as the control. The enzyme preparations ...
  • Richardson, D.; Boren, F.W.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1962)
    This was our second test to determine the value of various enzyme preparations added to beef cattle rations. The first involved amylase and a combination of amylase and protease. Amylase apparently depressed the appetite ...
  • Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W.; Tsien, W.S. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1960)
    Three lots of 10 animals were fed the same ration except for the added enzymes. The average daily ration is shown in Table 25, as are results of the test for the first 112 days. There are no significant differences in gains ...
  • Boren, F.W.; Lipper, R.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1965)
    In the two tests reported here the concentrate mixture or roughage-concentrate mixture was before the animals at all times. In addition a small amount of prairie hay was fed. In Lots 6 and 3 yearling Hereford feeder heifers ...
  • Smith, E.F.; Robertson, K.E.; Lipper, R.; Richardson, D.; Boren, F.W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1964)
    The favorable results of previous tests of the value of beef feedlot lighting justified further studies. Faster and more efficient gains were obtained under lighted conditions in two years of farm testing.
  • Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Boren, F.W.; Koch, B.A.; Tsien, W.S. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1960)
    Combine-type sorghum grain is widely grown in Kansas, and normally only the grain is harvested. In many instances, moisture conditions at harvest time are such that the grain cannot be stored without artificial drying. ...
