Reading from a public health note, milk held at 145 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes destroys disease producing bacteria while preserving nutritive value.

Growing Fruit Trees In The Great Plains Region
United States Department of Agriculture Farmers Bulletin 727 advises home orchardists in the Great Plains to keep the main stem of fruit trees at two to two and a half feet above ground and favor an open head shaped by four to five well-placed branches. Prune one-year-old trees heavily at planting, ensure branches are arranged symmetrically and spirally, and avoid dense bushy heads. Thorough early cultivation, weed control, and caution against cover crops are urged to conserve soil moisture, with no interplanting between tree rows in young orchards. Maintain open tree tops to ensure air and sunlight reach all parts of the canopy.
