Excerpt from Feeds and Feeding Abridged: The Essentials of the Feeding, Care, and Management of Farm, Animals, Including Poultry, Adapted and Condensed From Feeds and Feeding (Eighteenth Edition) Farm animals are really living factories that are continuously con verting their feed into products useful to man. A most important fact is that a large part of the feed thus made useful is of such char acter that it cannot be directly utilized by humans. Among the products yielded by animals are such articles of human diet as meat, milk, and eggs, materials like wool, mohair, and hides, which meet other needs of man, and, of greater aggregate value than any one of these, the work performed by draft animals. Each year the farm animals in the United States yield over five billion dollars' worth of useful products - a sum almost equal to the value of all the crops harvested. As the population of our country increases, most naturally a smaller portion of the crops raised can be fed to animals and more will be con sumed directly by humans. This change must come with the ih creased demand for human food, since even high-producing animals can convert but a small part of their food into forms edible for man. However, not only is the number of farm animals failing to keep pace with-the increase in population, but the number of cattle and sheep in this country has actually decreased in recent years, and the number of swine has increased but little. This means that animal products can not long hold their present important place in our diet unless American farmers come to appreciate the advantages of stock farm ing and better understand the principles and methods which are essential to its success.
