worm plowing match near salisburv rhodesia a a wall agricultural representa tive for york county newmarket it has been a wonderful fall for getting field work done on farms a lot of plowing is finished and even a good part of the grain corn crop is off with the pressure eased its a good time to do some double checking on live stock in dairy cattle i think feeding comes first the selection of the grain ra tion with the right amount of protein and a high en ergy level can make a big difference the amount fed to each individual cow might be even more important de cisions on both these items cant be guessed at it takes some figuring with pencil and paper quanti ties and types of roughage home grown grains and production figures for cows can all be worked to gether to work out a feed ing programme that will be good for the winter its easier to get herd tests now dhia groups will take on purebred herds as well as grades and owner sampling is available too at lower cost don yorke at sutton ray castator at nobleton and cecil morris at maple all dhia supervisors have the details on these pro grammes some time and study on mineral feeding might pay off well too with simpler rations and cows being pushed harder mineral deficiencies are common mineral mixes with high phosphate levels are very necessary for herds getting good alfalfa hay if a person is on a cam paign to improve milk pro duction the mastitis situa tion just cant be ignored even in herds where there are hardly any obvious signs its a good bet that mastitis is knocking 500 to 1000 lbs of milk off about half the cows a real good check on pumps lines regulators milking machines cleaning methods milking tech niques and medication would make any rainy day next week a very profit able one with severe penalties

how to avoid being towed this winter accoitling to the weather experts wind chill has drastic effect on temperature for instance if you are standing stationary in a 20 niilesperhour wind on a typical winter day when the temperature is about 34 degrees then the tem perature at the tips of your ears and nose will be something else temperatures at these extremities will average colder than 34 degrees below zero which rives you some idea of the dreadful cold absorbed by your car while it sits out on zero nights it is truly a tribute to the engineers that cars start at all under these conditions there are very many items to be cheeked in a thorough winterizing of your car though of course tile major ones of plugs and points battery and oil and automatic choke are most vital if you are like most of us humans which is to say lazy and procrastinating you will put this work off until the very last minute or better still until your car has to be towed to the garage some frosty morn ing to have the work done the result is that nearly 80 percent of all winter izing work is handled by dealers service shops in a few days eacli year it is inevitable that the job be more hurried and less
