Dairymen Can Raise Income With Grassland Upgrades
U S Bureau of Agricultural Economics says dairymen in central and northeastern states could lift net income by up to $1,000 annually by adopting newer grassland practices and equipment. Enhanced forage, selective fertilizing, legume adoption, and strategic rotations could boost forage output about 25 percent while labor needs stay steady through custom harvesting and planting services. Farmers should consult agronomists and nutritionists to tailor plans to soil, equipment, and barn routines.

Large Pack Of Green Peas In Maryland Sets Records
Maryland canners packed 1 280 000 cases of green peas this year, up about 6 percent from 1950. The total includes 598 000 Alaskas and over 1 3 000 Sweets, with Sweets up nearly 50 percent from last year. The pack is the largest in four years and reflects a 50-year rise in Maryland and national canned pea demand, driven by better canning and distribution methods. Agricultural labor foresees a shortfall of about two billion man-hours in 1951, with wage rises and worker migration to industry risking 1952 production. Springfield State Hospital owns Springsyke Champion Pet, a Holstein cow with a lifetime milk record over 100 000 pounds and 3 075 pounds of butterfat, peak output 17 032 pounds of milk and 546 pounds of butter fat in 7 years 9 months.
