Calf Starter Mix and Dairy News From Farm Scene
Capper's Farmer notes a five ingredient calf starter from Illinois College of Agriculture using ground yellow corn oats soymeal bone meal and salt. Jersey types excel on the mix while Ayrshires and Brown Swiss grow faster on a complex ration. Sheep shearers in Warren Indiana gathered 265 sheep at the Armstrong farm weighing over a ton of wool. Corn breeding aims to boost protein and fat, with risks of oil-rich corn harming hogs. J C Penney donates the Foremost Guernsey herd to the University of Missouri for perpetual care. Wisconsin fly control recommends methoxychlor in a 2.5 percent solution and warns against mixing with whitewash. The University hosts 2000 Dairy Science Association members for a June 1953 convention chaired by K G Weckel.
