TAXMgUS I rv1 From around the country-- From the Georgia experiment station comes a call for beef cows that show an unusually high twinning frequency. In case that threw you, it means they have twin calves more often than usual. Another effort to increase effeciency in production because the calf crop is the beef man's harvest If you have such an animal write Walter Neville.sjr., associate animal breeder, Georgia Experiment Station, Experiment. Ga. I hope that post office address isn't a typographical error. He wants to buy. Incidentally, dairymen can be so glad they have such fin easy time testing their cows for bangs because they have them• tied up and the bleeding for a blood sample is a simple matter. Beef men find the job nothing short of a full scale rodeo. Also, the disease presents a much more serious problem to them because their calf crop is their harvest and if a cow aborts, the entire income for the year from that cow is lost. The dairyman milks his lege plans to qrove something or ether on this. They have a number of containers of lotus seed they buried in 1880 and they plan to take up some and test it for Viability every ten years. "Broniegrass will strangle quaekgrass", says Gilbert Brooks, auperintendant, of the Hancock experiment station in Wisconsin, because it has a superior root system, leafier, starts earlier and shades best. Arthur Wolcott at Michigan's Chatham station says so too. He recommends 6 pounds of alfalfa, 1 pound each of alsike, red clover and timothy and 3 pounds of brome as a super st rangier; Destroy the chewing louse house by clipping your cattle in December and again in February. Wisconsin experiment station reports a gradual build-up in population as coats get longer and disappear in a ft-w days, with clipping. Kansas State college has it figured out that stored wheat under loan must rise a c«int in p;-iceV every twenty days to pay for deterioration and insect lo&s. Rats in corn in McHenry county haven't heard about the P.M.A. and the commodity loan program so its up to farmers to make it felt in the tummy if a government loan -is to pay. Who could get it loan on 1951 corn with present moisture content in McHenry county anyway? All these interesting stories came from Cappers newsletter for businessmen. Our corn will probably average 27 percent moisture and a large quantity will spoil before spring or already it is spoiled. This was brought out at our meeting on graiu drying at the Woodstock high school last Wednesday night Frank Andrew, agricultural engineer at the college, inspired everyone present toward doing something about it, by showing pictures of what farmers are doing. Earle Johnson of Huntley gave cost figures on what it costs to dry grain at, Clanvard Farm. fegjie said that the cost for fuel and electricity to dry a 110 bushel batch «of shelled corn from 27 percent moisture down to 14 percent was only 2¥j cents per bushel. By allowing a total of 10 cents per bushel taking 27 percent corn at other costs such as interest and depreciation on the $600 material and $1200^ furnace cost, he figures ! he is making about 12 cents per I bushel taking 27 perecnt corn af i $1.50 and selling it. at $1.90. the ' present No. 3 cbm price. Thestf figures look screwy maybe, but don't forget the shrink. . . , If you are a veteran and a termer and are not tied down to a I certain ' proposition, opportunity may be at your door. See Dick May of McHenry about the V. F. W. contest for the 80-acre farm in Washington State in the New Columbia River basin irrigation area. It will be complete, even to a cat and dog and even subscriptions to the usual farm magazines and local newspapers. They are looking for the ideal veteran family.
