    Two-year-old Hereford steers with an average USDA feeder grade of High Good were used to stock the pastures. They had been purchased as calves from near Melrose, N.M., and had been used in this study as yearlings during ...
  • Different methods of managing bluestem pastures
    Smith, E.F.; Anderson, K.L.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W.; Drake, C.L. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1962)

  • The effect of implanting beef heifers on a fattening ration with hormones or hormone-like substances
    Richardson, D.; Smith, E.F.; Koch, B.A.; Boren, F.W. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1959)
    The increase in rate of gain from feeding stilbestrol to heifers is not so good as that obtained with steers. Implanting heifers with levels of stilbestrol recommended for steers results in undesirable side effects ...
  • The effect of partial wilting on the feeding value of forage sorghum silage
    Smith, E.F.; Ward, G.M.; Boren, F.W.; Richardson, D.; Dunn, L. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1964)
    The object of this experiment was to evaluate forage sorghum (cut at the same physiological stage of maturity) ensiled with varying moisture contents. All forage was cut during two days but ensiled at three different times: ...
  • The effect of shade and hormone implant on fattening yearling heifers.
    Boren, F.W.; Koch, B.A.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1958)
    Five heifers in lots 1, 2 and 3 of the shade vs. no shade study were randomly selected to receive an implant composed of 20 mg. of estradiol benzoate and 100 mg. of testosterone. Since they were fed along with ...
  • The effects of added protein to dry rolled and steam rolled sorghum grain fattening rations
    Boren, F.W.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F.; Follis, D. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1962)
    Sorghum grain is used extensively in fattening rations for beef cattle. Its protein content reportedly varies from 6 to 12%. Wide differences in protein content result from variety, nitrogen supply in the soil, geographic ...
  • The effects of adding protein to dry-rolled sorghum grain fattening rations
    DeGeer, C.V.; Boren, F.W.; Smith, E.F.; Richardson, D.; Cox, R.F. (Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, 1964)
