Howie's Fizzaway and the value of a Guernsey bull

Feeding Dry Cows Before Calving Heifers and Dairy Cattle
Guidance from University Farm Minnesota dairy expert T L Haecker on dry period feeding. Cows near calving should receive mostly roughage for eight to ten weeks. A daily two pound bran or oats ration with a mix of two parts bran and oats and one part linseed meal or corn oil meal is advised. Include roots and cabbage or squashes. avoid highly carbonaceous roughage like straw and cornstalks at this time. Cold water and drafts and damp or frozen nights raise risk of caked udder or gorget.

Silage boosts profits in Iowa beef feeding trials
Iowa station experiments show silage-fed cattle yield higher profits than clover roughage alone, with even better returns when silage is combined with clover. Alfalfa likely outperforms clover due to higher protein. oats straw can supplement if legumes are scarce. Fully fed silage reduces dry roughage intake.

Selecting the Boar for the Herd From Pure Breeds
H A Stone advises choosing a strong pure breed boar from a prolific family at a fair price. Avoid mongrels and culled animals even with pedigree. Inspect sows for size and conformation, mating to fix flaws, and consider homebred options at fairs or from careful breeders to avoid extreme costs.

Berkshire hog praised for activity and health
The Berkshire hog is valued for its conformation and uniform color. It is claimed to be more active than other breeds and a good forager, with exercise aiding digestion and weight gain. The sow shown represents a good Berkshire type and there is a place for pure bred Berkshires on every farm.
Properly trained boar yields better progeny and long service
A well fed and cared for boar from a breeder who developed him properly will perform best when used with sows. Do not blame the breeder for failures if you change feeding practices. A properly developed boar is ready for light service at nine months and can provide reliable stock for ten years.
Pure Breds In the Dairy
A young farmer in Ohio started with scrub dairy cows but switched to pure bred Holsteins. Now his two and three year olds milk fifty to sixty pounds daily, and fresh cows exceed sixty to seventy pounds with first and second calvings. He laments not starting with pure breds due to pessimistic advice.

George R. Samson of Oregon Agricultural College stresses that a dairy bull must be pure bred and registered, but also come from an advanced registry dam. If unavailable locally, choose a calf from a heavy milker cow with good testing and persistent milking. Prefer sire from merit register if possible.
