Tennessee Test Shows Hogs Gain On Feather Meal

Experiments at the University of Tennessee find steamed and lime hydrolyzed feather meal can substitute one third to two thirds of soybean meal in hog rations. Feather meal plus blood yielded 80 percent protein in steam hydrolyzed form and 73 percent in lime hydrolyzed form. Daily gains averaged 1.6 pounds for all pigs on substitute diets, with potential profit despite higher feather meal cost due to higher protein content.

It's the Law Q and A on Pennsylvania family law

Lancaster Farming presents a general interest Q and A column from the Pennsylvania Bar Association. A reader asks about fornication penalties for unwed mothers and when a baby can be taken, inheritance issues on joint ownership, wills without children, and deeds and debts in a marriage. Answers explain the law: fornication is a misdemeanor up to a fine, jail and ward of the state are unlikely without proof of unfitness, a surviving spouse holds joint real estate, a will is valid with two witnesses, and joint debts remain shared decisions depend on mortgage terms.

Transition Period Good Time to Buy Storable Vegetables at Low Price

Philadelphia readers are urged to buy now as seasonal shifts move production from nearby areas to distant southern points. Prices drop for remaining nearby root crops while distant produce arrives with higher handling costs but strong value, making this a good buy period for artichokes beets broccoli cabbage cauliflower celery lettuce potatoes onions peppers radishes sweet potatoes turnips leafy greens and many fruits including apples avocados limes cranberries oranges grapefruit and pears. Thanksgiving prep advice notes cranberry deals and early fruit discounts amid changing supply.
