Direct Sunlight for Layers Is Essential
A simple cheap method provides direct sun for hens by creating a ten square foot south facing space filled with an eight inch layer of cinders. Enclose to keep soil clean, add a wind break in exposed spots as chickens avoid wind. Dark cinders absorb heat, melting snow and letting birds bask on warm dry ground even when ground remains wet and cold.
Feeding New Corn Mash for Emergency Livestock Ration
When corn is scarce and dry enough to grind is limited, prepare a short term mash using 100 pounds ground oats, 10 pounds tankage or meat scraps, and 1 pound salt. If barley is available, mix 50 pounds barley with 50 pounds oats for a better emergency feed, not a permanent ration.

The relation between beef and milk prices affects the number and age of U S dairy cows. USDA official O E Reed says current beef prices are prompting dairymen to cull low producers and aged cows to make room for new milkers. Beef prices may limit dairying expansion for several years, while demand growth could raise milk production per cow as prices stay above feed costs.
