Excerpt from Steer and Lamb Feeding The experiments in feeding cattle and sheep, the results of which are recorded in the following pages, were conducted during the winters of 1901 - 2 and 1902 - 3. These experiments are the first of their character that have been conducted at this Station. However, considerable feeding has been done in some parts of the Territory, but so far as known, no rec ords have been kept and information as to the results cannot be obtained. There has been some demand in the past for information on feeding in New Mexico, and it is believed that the need for such information will be much greater in the future. Upon the completion of storage reservoirs and the development of irrigation systems, which will result in the reclamation of immense arid areas, the feeding industry will command much attention among farmers. There is little information avail able to the New Mexico farmer and ranchman upon feeding, and therefore, it is thought desirable to publish the data thus far secured upon this subject. The results obtained are suggestive of the possibilities, - the conclusions, however, are only tentative, there not having been a sufficient number of trials from which to draw them.
