Remains of Drivers Named in Grim Cemetery Lines
Fragmentary epitaphs recall drivers and passengers killed in crashes. Percival Sapp lies with a girl in his lap, William Blake and William Raines are named among the dead, each with rough notes about brakes, chains, or inebriation. William Jay died defending the right of way, John Smith lost his shoes, and Mary Jane is listed among the living dead.

Alfalfa Hay Makes Milk Cows Happy
The Blue Valley Creamery Institute notes alfalfa as the easiest roughage to turn into milk and a critical protein source. Dry fragrant alfalfa hay delights cows and supports high digestibility, reducing the need for expensive protein concentrates.
