Garden tips from county extension director on mulch and spraying
County Extension Director Gene Vincent and horticulturist A E Cott urge timely garden care. Mulch tomatoes to reduce cracking and blossom end rot and maintain steady moisture. Regular insect and disease control with sprays every two weeks, dusts every week after rain, cover undersides of leaves. Avoid wasteful dusting like salt-on-tail method. a $2.98 duster pays for itself. Side-dress tomatoes with 10-20-10 fertilizer around plants and water in. crabgrass in lawns should be treated with methyl arsenate products before seeding.

Feed Water Shade Is Formula to Increase Summer Milk Check
The county extension director says summer milk slump stems from insufficient feed with water and shade as key next factors. Dairy experts from Iowa State note protein and digestibility drop as pasture forage matures, reducing grazing and milk yield unless supplemented. Suggested approaches include feeding hay or silage, more grain, or chopping forage daily, with combos usually best. Water is crucial, a cow may need 3 to 5 times her milk output in daily water.
