Apples Lead as Global Eaters, U.S. Tops Consumption
The Department of Agriculture reports Americans eat about three apples weekly per person, leading the world. New York, Michigan, and Virginia account for half the U.S. barreled crop, with Baldwin and Rhode Island Greening favored in the North and Winesap and York Imperial in the South. Cold storage dominates, and exports value at over 23 million dollars for the year ending June 30, 1924, with Britain buying most surplus fruit. Complete study details are in Bulletin 1416-D.

Farm Voice On Feeding And Management Practices
The text discusses maximizing farm efficiency through adapted crop varieties and balanced feeding. It mentions using waste oil for engines, aligning production with costs, and placing holsters with milking herds to ease freshening. It also covers combining silage and alfalfa hay for a complete dairy cow ration.
Winter Field Peas Growable With Profit Says USDA
The United States Department of Agriculture reports winter field peas can be profitable in parts of the country.

Economical Use of High Priced Farm Machinery
The article argues that costly farm gear should be used many days yearly to lower per acre costs, including interest and depreciation. It notes profit in renting machinery for few days and warns against buying expensive equipment unless the farm size and workload justify it.
Good Care of Cream in Dairy Handling Rules
Instructions emphasize clean cream handling and rapid cooling. Place freshly skimmed cream in the cooling tank, ensure the tank is filled with fresh cold water, do not mix cooled cream with warm cream, and stir several times daily to prevent sticking. Stirring while cooling improves quality.
Spray for flies helps milk yield
Purdue university dairymen report flies cut milk flow in hot weather and poor pasture. Sanitation and fly spray reduce losses. darkened barns, screens, and manure removal lessen fly presence. Cows indoors in heat benefit from daily spraying. no permanent repellent exists yet, but market sprays lessen attacks.

Cream for Butter Most Careful Attention
Cream is highly perishable and prone to fermentation and contamination. Emphasizes cleanliness in handling and proper cooling of cream to 50 degrees Fahrenheit or lower after skimming, with jars and utensils thoroughly cleaned, scalded, dried, and kept in dry, sunlit conditions until sent to the creamery.
Keep Heifer Growing for Profitable Dairy Profit
Quick growth of dairy heifers boosts future efficiency. Short pastures and limited feed threaten growth, potentially stunting development for life. Prioritize rapid, economical growth now to maximize feed use for growth rather than maintenance and sustain higher milk profit later.
Dairy notes and calf-raising tips from dairy science
The column advises that dairy cows should receive feeds rather than be fed constantly. Bedding in the dairy stable pays, while Melba XV of Darhalara in Australia 기록 earned 82,022 pounds of milk and 1,614 pounds of butterfat yearly. Calf-rearing methods recommend starting with whole or skim milk for about seventy days, then switching to grain and hay, and limiting grass until two and a half to three months to avoid unbalanced growth.
