Good Points to Observe in Raising Baby Chicks
Kansas state agricultural veterinarian J. W. Lamb warns that bacillary white diarrhea can pass from infected hens to offspring via eggs, reducing hatchability and chick survivability. Key points: buy eggs from disease-free flocks, avoid mixing eggs from tested and untested flocks, disinfect incubators and houses, reuse ground only if uncontaminated, and follow a strict brooding and feeding system to maintain chick immunity.

Rotation Advisable in Producing Tomatoes
Tomato cropping benefits from a rotation of at least four years. Avoid following tomatoes with tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, or eggplant due to disease risk. Include one cultivated crop and one or more soil-building crops to reduce insect and disease losses.
Practical farm tips for spring care and efficiency
Begin with a thorough anti louse program for hens before warm weather. Plant potatoes to hasten the new crop. Some farmers will raise costs to profit from future horse demand. Improve poultry house ventilation to reduce damp litter. Properly feed a dairy calf to grow into a productive milk producing cow. Keep pig quarters clean for healthier growth. Breeching will be used less this spring while tugs and collars benefit from oiled, softer harness.
