SOW OATS FARLY Demonstrations shape Iowa spring planting
Two key findings from 1939 and 1940 Kanawha and Conesville tests by Iowa State College plant pathologist C. S. Reddy show that delaying sowing oats past the best date reduces yield by about one bushel per acre daily, and seed treatment boosts yields for varieties including Marion Hancock Vanguard Tama Kowa 105 while Boone and Control gain little.

Iowa State outlines cattle feeding plan for large corn supplies
Rex Beresford of Iowa State College proposes a summer finishing program for farmers with ample roughage and corn. Buy yearlings at 500 to 700 pounds, feed through stalk fields with silage hay or fodder plus protein, then top up with light corn. Extend full grain feeding 2 to 4 months beyond standard to finish better grades, targeting mid summer to early fall marketing as prices improve. Overall plan emphasizes longer feeding and staged grain intro.

Planting Apple Trees in Iowa for Rapid Growth
ISU extension horticulturist S W Edgecombe explains spring planting guidelines for young apple trees. Prune only damaged roots, spread roots evenly, dig 18 to 24 inches diameter holes 1 to 16 inches deep, orient trees southwest to counter winds, avoid trampling surface soil, and prune all newly planted trees for best growth.

Molasses as Lamb Fattening Feed at Iowa State College
Iowa State College tests show molasses worth about 85 percent of corn by weight for lamb fattening. Optimal daily intake around 4 percent of body weight. heavier amounts reduce gains as lambs tire. Beet molasses slightly outperforms cane, with lower feed needs. Economical purchase at 10 to 15 percent below No 2 corn on a ton basis. Molasses fed with ground hay or silage or poured over grain.
