Farmers find hand husking often cheaper than machines
A Iowa State College study shows on four farms hand husking saved money per bushel on two sites while machines beat hand on one. Countywide data mirror these results with mechanical pickers saving labor but not enough to offset equipment costs. The largest advantage for hand husking was a half cent per bushel.

Keep Young Bulls Growing For Profitable Breeding
Livestock expert C. W. McDonald urges early development of bull calves to maximize growth and future performance. He notes bulls require 25 to 50 percent more feed than steers of similar age to reach desired size and emphasizes starting grain as soon as calves eat. Supplemental feeding in creep or sheltered areas aids growth during poor pastures.

Carl N Kennedy notes Kentucky and Tennessee's strong crops versus national farm profits.
