Timely Advice for Farm Produce and Livestock
Farm readers are urged to advertise farm produce in local and farm papers. Blue litmus paper tests seeds. A calcium chloride solution prevents engine water jackets from freezing. Fall pigs need warm shelter and self fed feeding reduces tankage costs. Frosty roads call for horses with non slip shoes. Store apples in a cool ventilated area near freezing temperatures.
