New Stall Cuts Calf Chore Time
The University of Wisconsin designs a low cost calf stall that reduces chore time and bedding needs while protecting calves from draft and disease. Pairs fit beside stanchions and drain into the barn gutter, using slatted floors and hardware cloth to keep straw in place. Each five by four foot unit is mobile, elevated, and usable through six weeks to three months, offering sanitation, convenient feeding, and reduced disease risk at about $30 per pair.

Promotion Boosts Ice Cream Sales
Ice cream sales in February 1956 set an all time record for increases at the 17th annual American Dairy Association meeting in Chicago. Robert C. Hibben announced February sales were 19 percent above February 1935, with January 1956 up 13 percent from 1955. He attributed growth to cooperation between ice cream makers and dairy farmers through the ADA, noting a February promotion on ice cream and cherries and advertising on Lone Ranger Disneyland TV and LIFE.
