Lancaster Farming, Saturday, October 15. 1960—9 ment of Agriculture based its prediction on the fact that much of the corn acreage this year was planted late and would not have reached proper maturity before being lulled by frost. However, light frosts that have occur red to date have been from one to three weeks later than normal and have been heavy enough to kill com m only a few scattered localities Harvest of corn is increas ing and during the past week northern tier county farmers started moving into the fields with corn pickers. Potato harvest in most areas is past its peak. Conditions are ex cellent in western and cen tral areas, and m eastern counties the ground is dry enough on higher fields to permit potato digging. Most fall-seeded barley is sprouted and growing norm ally. Wheat seeding is gener al and conditions are very good with the exception of the northwest where barley and wheat are emerging only in low damp spots. Old hay stands are going into winter in fair condition and new seedings are good. «■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ ■■■■■■■■■■«■■■!» | Bulk Spreading Service I S FERTILIZER and LIMESTONE f ■ DEALERS FOR ■ ■ • Dovco "Granular" Fertilizer 5 5 • Webb Super-Gro 5 ■ Balanced organic fertilizer ■ ■ • Rock Phosphate g ■ Phosphorus ■ ■ • Green Sand ■ ■ Potash ■ ■ If you need fertilizer call us- S j SMUCKER BROS. | ■ BIRD-IN-HAND.

DUCKS GROW FAST Ducks are about the fast est growing domesticated an imals, reports H H Kauff man, extension poultry spec ialist. They weigh shghtly over one-tenth of a pound when hatched and increase their original weight 60 times during the first eight weeks If the calf from a beef animal would- grow in the same manner, it could weigh about 2’A tons at eight weeks. START SILAGE FEEDING Richard S Adams, exten sion dairy specialist, suggests dairymen planning to feed grass silage should feed it early if they have a fall freshening herd. He belives amounts of both hay and silage fed shou’d be gradual*, ly increased until cows arc on full-barn feeding A gradual change-over keeps stress at a minimum and helps maintain both produc tion and health. ;es r appearance mal Faad RED COMB EGG MASH Equally With Scratch for Top Quality Eggs With Excellent Flavor. your EASY BUDGET PLAN!
