Thursday, February 8. 1951 Hgr* Wf. •J* •attyni ' ^v, -•* * • v % W. 11 T»mineM/.M^..;: i ' 4 . - - §«rm Specht, o«r CMunfatiODHlf t# Considered by some perhaps as being a little "tetched" about ttlfe matter of forage and the job of growing it. He says many people , listen but they don't believe him. I say better believe him because he has the "goods" and is giving >^e forage program the "work*". He says many farmers wail 'til too late to cut hay just to get the number of bales they "need. That kind of hay would make pretty good insulation if it were put In the barn walls, but most people feed it to the cows At Wisconsin Farm and Homo Week, a professor irom ^Rutgers University said farmers in the £umid area of the U.S. lose 66 per WvX or 2/8 of the nutritive v»lUe of their hay crop because of misjudgement. Many farmers spend all their money for the down payment 011 a farm and then don't have any money to farm with. They don't have the money to spend for the fertilizer they should buy, for instance. Norm made a study of 'arms in McHenry county ani Iwmd a group of ten that spent ffiir times as much for fertilizer as the average. Based on Farm Bureau Farm Management Service records they made over 900 per cent on the extra money sj>e^t J Their hay yield was 88 per cent above the average. If you don't have the money you can't make an investment that will bring you '900 per cent return on your investment.-,. • *At Farm and Home #)ay it was ought out by Walter Winn that a survey was made in. Wisconsin' asking farmers what their intention was on milk production in 1951. Most of them said they were going to produce as much as in 1960 and some were going to produce more. And this in light of present milk prices. There is only one answer, if you don't like the price of milk, produoc l«*ss of it. Any *h-r plan where you ask the govnment to "do something" costs more than rmyone gets out of it. There never was a better time to get rifl of that boarder cow with beef prices what they are- now. The trouble is too many farmers can't stand to see an empty ff*nil in the barb. An empty one now may 'make you more money than a full one. Use the money to make the 900 per cent return wc just talked £out on some Angus calves on pasture-. You can got the Angus calveB throng!: the breeding association. Of course you have to furnish 4he cows for them to breed. I heard a man talk about dairy feeding the o^Ver night, lie said cows have to he kept a long time to pay well. Bv the time she has milked two years !»he has paid for her rcUehig. The third year of milking thert. is profitable and so on. ^ow many profitable years have your cows haft? jft lias been skid the average dairv cow In McHenry count> lives to be 4^ years oid. That means fhe has H year as*# profit maker. No wonder dairymen don't make so much money.

The other day it seemed so warm. I took a look at the thermometer and it was only 4 below. No wonder 1 {pit that *»y. We blame Che Mep aid hot weather for the decline in lnflk production in July and August. Tain't so. The cows just don't get enough to eat. He said a cow will produce 30 per cent more milk if she is fed grain during her dry period. Yon cant put her on the shelf and «ay. "Well, I'll see you when you com« fresh again." There are 2,400 beer signs to one milk sign betwen New York and Sao Francisco on a coast to coast highway. Who advertises? William M. Hartman of Algonquin said they grossed over $100 per acre on beef last year on some land that four years ago was rocks and gullies. Fertilization, leveling and a good grass mixture did the trick. New directors of the bounty fair include Ray Nevel, Riley township; Mrs. Chester 6aaip. Bunham; Ralph Nichols. Hebron; A. A. Anderson,. Chemung; and Ben Winn, Burton. A meeting will be held soon to elect officers. Thirty-one attended the annual meeting last Thursday. A letter from John Lindsay at Colby, fcgain. He met a Mr. Kline up there from Union, who John says I knew about him through this column. We find it hard to keep secrets. Dim Prospeclg For State Peach Crop This Year The present cold snap has further dimmed the prospects fat a good peach crop io Illinois this year, L. L. Col vis, manager of the Illinois Fruit Growers Exchange has announced. Temperatures in the orchard areas of southern Illinois runged from 2 to 5 dagrefes below zero one nlfcht last week, he said. Such severe cold weather is certain to have done some additional damage to the peach buds and probably killed another 25 per cent of those buds remaining. Colvis indicated. "It looks as If there is an average of not more than 15 per ceht of the buds left on the trees and already some orchards have been hurt so badly they will produce less than a normal crop." The reason the present cold weather is cutting so heavily into the peach crop prospect's is because an average of 70 per cent of the peach buds were killed during a cold spell !r. late November, Colvis declared..
