Income Tax Report Time Approaching for Farmers
Meigs County agent notes income tax reports are due January 31 for final reports with payment, or January 15 for preliminaries with final report. Advises farmers to plan, purchase fertilizer and farm supplies before year end and to start better records for 1952. Comments on fertilizer costs and pasture yield improvements from timing and nitrogen use.
Demonstration plots show fertilizer boost in Ohio pastures
In Southeastern Ohio ten demonstration plots show 10-10-10 fertilizer increasing grazing by 30 percent over untreated plots for April to June. Earl Dean, near Sumner, reports satisfaction with results. Economists claim a $15.80 input could yield $23.22, with extra grazing equating to about 540 pounds of milk from 60 days of grazing.

Animal Nutrition Conference insights from Ohio State University
Highlights from the Animal Nutrition Conference at Ohio State University include guides by Dr. N N Allen on feeding high roughage with poor quality hay, the 16 18 percent total protein limit, and using steamed bone meal about 20 pounds per ton. A L Moxon notes roughages supply trace elements, cattle and sheep may need no extra trace elements, iodized fat covers iodine needs, and new trace element studies start at the experiment station. J W Hibbs explains calf rumen development and milk feeding needs during transition to a mature ruminant. after seven weeks, milk is usually unnecessary if rumen is established.
