Ensilage corn for the silo to beat field corn profits
The article compares ensilage corn and ordinary field corn for silos, noting higher water content in ensilage corn but greater total nutrients per acre from ensilage varieties. Indiana, Ohio, and Connecticut studies show field corn silage yields more milk and fat per acre, making field corn often more profitable overall despite higher total nutrient yield from ensilage corn.

Too Early Grazing Sets Back Average Pastures
A veteran livestock breeder urges delaying spring turnout to let grass grow. He argues grazing ahead of growth hurts yield and winter readiness, while Minnesota university farm stockmen say a one week delay extends pasture season and prevents soil damage. He recommends two acres per horse or cow and six to eight sheep per similar area.

Raising Feed for Cows
A dairy farmer who can grow nearly all his cow feed has a clear edge over those who buy feed. Raising feed lowers costs and offers two profit chances: selling feed at market price from the farm and profiting from dairy products. those who buy feed must rely on strong markets and efficient cows.
Resting Period for Dairy Cows Aids Recovery
The article notes a four to eight week rest common among dairymen to allow recuperation. It emphasizes the dairy cow as a hard working machine producing large milk yields continually and calving annually.
Cheapen Milk Yield Through Leguminous Roughages
The article argues that to cheapen milk production dairymen should feed abundant leguminous roughages like alfalfa clover hay and bean pods with high digestibility. Corn silage and legumes should form the dairy ration base enabling reduction of grain and overall costs.
Milk Addition Boosts Growth in Young Chicks
United States Department of Agriculture research shows adding milk to the grain ration of growing chicks greatly increases growth. Experiments continue at Beltsville Maryland with studies on mineral salts in vegetable protein rations and animal protein efficiency. Last year about 7,500 government-hatched chicks were used for breeding feeding and management studies.

Best Kernels to Select as Seed for Corn Crop
Farmers debate seed kernel type as seed. Research shows smooth kernels signal shallow, early maturity and not deterioration. In dry upland or thin soil, choose shallow smooth ears. on rich bottom land, select deeper rough kernels that mature with longer season.
Alfalfa Cheapest Hay Produced on Farm
Southwestern Minnesota farm records show alfalfa costs $12.51 per acre with an average yield of 2.2 tons per acre, equating to $5.70 per ton after adjustments. Clover and Timothy averaged 1.1 tons and $8.56 per ton, confirming alfalfa as cost effective for feed.

Farm guidance for seed handling and crop plans
The notes advise cleaning seed and fields, treating potato seed with formaldehyde, and screening before feeding stock. Plan 3.5 tons of silage and 1–2 tons of legume hay per cow, use 8-4-4 fertilizer for vegetables, plant legume seed and several acres, include red and yellow cherry tomatoes for children, and combine grass with a legume for long-term cover. Soybean seed control against bean weevil by exposing seed to sub zero temperatures for 36 to 48 hours.
