Dairy Cows Curiosity Cause Woods Visits Dairy cows are quite inquisitive and if they can get into the farm woodlot they will often browse about it merely out of curiosity. Cows could spend time to better advantage pasturing on more nu ll itious feed than leaves and bark, says Frank Wright, extension dairy specialist at Rutgers Univer sity Fencing off the woodlot can protect a potential lumber sup ply and also prevent cows from grazing poisonous plants that might be growing there. Mr. Wright further says that it cows are going to product a large amount of milk they’ve got to spend a good deal of their time eating and chewing their cuds, not wandering aimlessly about a woodlot.

Lancaster Farming, Friday, July 19, 1957 —% Growing Big Healthy Houseflies Important Part of Spray Research The fly season comes to farms with the warm weather months, but the “fly season” in the Ralston.

Researchers some times go so far as to anesthetize flies and study them indmdually to observe the reaction of their living organisms to certain sub stances And the insecticide lab oratory has the seemingly para doxical object of finding better ways to grow flies the year round in order to find better ways to kill them when warm weather comes DAIRY FEEDS SAVE LOW, during on 14% DAIRY FEED & 32% MILKMAKER Guaranteed Analysis Protein Fat .
