Says County Farmers Running Out Of Hay
Dr. T B Symons of the University of Maryland Extension Service urged revival of a federal hay program for dairymen in Maryland to keep milk production steady. He noted dairymen in Washington and Caroline counties requested 50 tons of hay, while the Washington county agent’s office said it had no knowledge of such requests and none had been filed locally. He blamed cold weather delaying pasture growth and urged bringing hay into Maryland to preserve milk output.
