Winter fodder crops urged for dairy farms in February sowings
Farmers are advised to sow land for just two winter fodder crops, maize sorghum and swedes and turnips, throughout February if weather allows. Roots serve as digestible fodder, with Aberden Purple Top and Mammoth Purple Top varieties favored for quicker growth and aphid resistance, while January was poor for lucerne hay curing and green feeding continued.

Clock Watchers and the Precision of BBC Continuity
Ordinary men who rarely clock watch become continuity announcers at the BBC. On duty they must time broadcasts to the second to insert warnings and bridge gaps with gramophone records. Precise timing prevents slips and even slight delays can upset daily plans after hours on duty.
