Poults face the hardest phase from brooding to free range says C J Maupin extension poultryman at North Carolina State College.

Feed starts with hard boiled eggs in shell, then chick starter by day two, with gradual feed changes as poults grow and prepare for range. Water at 86 hours after hatch and milk in to aid starter.

Money in Raising Colts Says Farmers Can Profit
University of Tino's extension specialist J T Robbins argues farmers can profit raising colts on cheap feed amid rising horse prices and shrinking numbers. He notes only about 30 000 colts under one year exist statewide and Shelby county mirrors this trend with few young horses among those in a parasite control project. Robbins says twice as many colts must be raised to halt decades of decline, citing 742 000 horses on farms statewide, about 57 percent of the 86 12 years ago.

Wheat crops secure barley farm note misspelled
Farm Hunts Chile expects its present wheat crop to fill the country's needs until the next harvest. Albany county leads state county farm bureaus with 1 288 members for 1088. Delinquent taxes have caused more than 2 000 000 acres to be transferred to the state from landowners in Michigan. In northern Ohio about 10 percent of the peach crop survived the February freeze wave. An auction at Red Wing Minnesota saw an eight year old horse sell for 160 dollars and an eight year old sedan bring 25 dollars. The area sown to wheat in England and Wales is about 17 percent greater than at the end of 1981 per a ministry of agriculture report on conditions on January 1, 1098.
