An expert explains that summer pasture is best for a heifer to freshen but winter calving can work with careful feeding and management. Key steps include avoiding fattening, providing varied feeds, roomy stalls, pre calving salt, warm postnatal care, ensuring the calf gets first milk, warm water regularly, udder hot baths, and thorough cleansing procedures.
The article describes a dairy cleaning sequence in Denmark where milk cans are sprayed with cold water, scrubbed inside and out with hot water, attached to a revolving wheel, immersed in limewater, and finally steamed. Milk bottles are typically washed afterward.
The article advises mixing feeds for horses with equal parts ground oats and corn, adding bran for protein and bone growth, and grinding calf grain for easier chewing. It promotes succulent feeds like mangels and turnips as inexpensive catch crops, notes salt’s role in saliva and intake, and discusses feeding during milking to keep cows calm and productive.
The milking machine is not as popular or universally successful as the cream separator. Success depends on following the manufacturer’s directions precisely, requiring the owner to operate the machine or hire very skilled help. Improvements are expected to reduce such troubles.
A prominent veterinarian warns that TB in cattle endangers milk quality and human health. He urges cleanliness, ventilation, sanitation and disinfection of dairy quarters to speed eradication. The dairy industry yields billions in milk butter and cheese, primarily consumed in the United States, with adulteration posing greater risk than disease.
An old farm note extols simple barrel churns for butter, arguing against fussy gear setups. It promotes end over end motion, removable end, easy washing, and hand or animal powered churns with a 45 to 60 minute fining window at 50 to 70 degrees.
A sharp exchange centers on the party motto Turn the rascals out with one line noting that the rival party has turned out more rascals. The quip reflects partisan jibes and public dissatisfaction in a campaign style dialogue.
