A. F. Caine of Iowa State College prescribes a summer ration for work horses consisting of 50 percent oats, 30 percent corn, and 16 percent bran with mixed clover and smothy hay for roughage. If bran is costly or undesirable, adjust by increasing oats. The aim is to maximize power per unit of feed and keep horses in efficient service.
A simple threading trick uses a loop of rotten thread inserted through the needle eye. The yarn is placed in the loop so it can be drawn back through the eye, easing embroidery work. The method, though crude, offers a quick aid for threading when material is available.
Rex Beresford of the Extension Service at Iowa State College says forty sow demonstrations are scheduled in as many counties during October and November to educate farmers on better livestock handling and breeding practices.
Four livestock specialists will be kept busy by the work. A few more counties are expected to request the demonstration. Livestock farming pays better than grain farming, according to a recent Ohio survey. Sugar cane syrup can now be made that will not crystallize or sugar even when cooked and kept in barrels.
