Cultivation in Gardens to Keep the Weeds Down
Gardeners learn to balance cultivation and weeding to control weeds. Early rough cultivation helps kill small weeds while ongoing hoeing prevents seed production. Stable manure carries weed seeds. use well-rotted manure or compost to avoid introducing new invaders while preserving soil warmth and nutrients.
Sweet Clover for Hay
Sweet clover sown in spring will yield a good hay crop by mid September if the soil is fertile and well prepared. The yellow variety is favored for hay though debate continues on oats as a companion. If sowing oats with clover the amount should be reduced to about two thirds.
Farm facts and livestock care guidance from old notes
Instructions emphasize keeping sows healthy for strong litters, with ample grit and ventilation for cattle comfort and milk production. Advise daily exercise for livestock, winter feeding, and frozen supplies to sustain milk. Poultry advice focuses on breed stock evaluation and bird care before breeding season.

False economy in rations for cows
A farming writer argues that high grain and low protein feeds waste money. In tests from Jefferson county, cows fed 70 pounds of milk and 24 pounds of butterfat, with costly grain, could be kept with better results by balanced, higher protein rations. The piece compares costs and shows protein-rich feeds can reduce overall spend and boost production.
