A dairy extension note explains pasture varies in capacity and the value of grain supplementation. It notes a three gallon per day cow may need about three pounds of grain, four gallons about five pounds, and five gallons about eight pounds, depending on milk value and pasture quality.
Article explains feeding cows before calving boosts calf strength and milk yield. It argues liberal prepartum feeding preserves cow tissue, leading to a strong calf and higher future milk production without extra long-term feed.
A method for weaning a calf from its cow involves gradually separating them for short periods. Start after three to four months, isolate the cow at night for a week, milk daily, then reintroduce daytime mixing. Increase the separation windows over ten days, then place the calf with a weaner. This reduces fretting and eases the process for the keeper.

A Popular Science Monthly feature touts a new unbreakable ax with a one piece forged and tempered head and handle. The leather grip stays secure and the head cannot detach.
