Contamination of Milk Easy to Prevent
The article warns milking and handling practices can contaminate milk. Dirty cow udders and flanks transfer dirt to the milk. Clean pails strainers and cans, dry handling, and avoid milking with wet hands. Wipe cattle with a damp cloth and avoid grooming or feeding just before milking to reduce dust in milk.
Shade for Dairy Cows in Hot Weather
Dairy cows suffer in heat without shade. In abundant pastures cattle feed in cooler hours and rest in shade. Plant permanent shade with trees at least five to six feet from trunks. install a fence and four pests. use well drained sandy soil and avoid salt under trees. Beware lightning if trees are near wires.
Grain Supplements For High Milk Yields In Pasture Cows
Guidance on feeding dairy cows on pasture recommends grain supplements due to grass limits. Cows yielding 21 to 26 pounds daily need 150 to 200 pounds of grass daily and still require grain. Cows at 30 to 34 pounds milk need oats corn wheat and barley at 1 pound grain per 4 to 6 pounds milk. Cows over 35 pounds need a high protein concentrate.
Digestibility of P-7d Dairy Rations at Olio Experiment Station
The Olio experiment station tests show most dairy rations are not easily digestible. Diets with low protein tended to depress digestibility more than higher protein rations, though substantial variation exists among rations with similar protein. Low digestibility did not reliably predict reduced overall ration efficiency.

Blackhead Disease in Turkeys Linked to Roundworms
It is learned that infection by a roundworm can transfer the germ causing blackhead in turkeys. A semi confinement plan places turkeys on virgin soil, preferably alfalfa, unused by chickens for at least two years to prevent infection. The term blackhead misleads as many turkey diseases cause the head to darken before death.

Turkey Egg Shell Pattern and Nesting Tricks
The text notes using infertile turkey eggs to study shell patterns without vandalism. It advises blowing out the egg, threading it as a guide, and leaving an infertile egg in the nest to mark the hen’s number.
