State University Extension agronomist Frank Sealer advises moving stock from muddy lots to pasture early, with a plan to prevent overgrazing. He recommends an area of fresh forage with nitrogen fertilization for quick growth, then grazing on this patch as needed.
Extension agronomist and Dulko discuss target forage heights for bluegrass bromegrass reed curacao grass and birdsfoot trefoil alfalfa before grazing. Four to five inches for birdsfoot cretail and eight to ten inches for alfalfa are advised. Farmers may need to graze some pasture early, but most should reach adequate height first.
Iowa records show frequent tornadoes yearly with over 50 reported annually for the past three years, ranking third behind Kansas and Texas. The Lowa Loss Prevention Institute released an 18 edition folder on tornado history and safety tips, available free by writing Des Moines address.
Commissioner Maurice A. Hatfield reports January Medical Assistance (Title XIX) totals of 1,971,015 paid for 44,417 recipients at an average of 29.89 each. Payments cover doctors, hospitals, nursing homes, podiatrists, optometrists and labs, totaling 1,771,101.15 across 40,440 claims, with 60 percent federal funds and 40 percent state funds. Separate notes discuss food stamps expansion, Iowa vocational rehabilitation plans, and continuing state funding and reorganizations through 1978.
The State Board of Public Instruction unanimously opposes any effort to remove administration of the State vocational rehabilitation program from the Department of Public Instruction. Critics want the Division moved to the new Department of Social Services amid 1987 reorganizational considerations.
The Rock Valley Bee notes Veterans Administration health care eligibility for all war veterans including Korean Conflict and Vietnam era veterans.
