Longwood Program The Longwood Program In Ornamental Horticulture at the University of Delaware has granted five two-year fellowships, according to Dr. Richard Lighty, Program Coordinator. The program, financed by a grant from the Longwood Foundation, Inc., utilizes the staffs and facilities of the College of Agricultural Sciences at the University and those of Longwood Gardens.

If we tried to supplement on the basis of one test when we first open the silo, that test wouldn’t be any good when we got to the bottom. We test often, we adjust the ration when we need to and we keep production up where it should be.” There are two rations for the Bollinger herd, one for cows producing over 40 pounds per day and one for cows under 40. And the cows have been getting good feed out of the silos. This year’s first cutting of alfalfa haylage tested at 18.36 percent protein, and the com silage has been running at 7 percent. Another factor in their success, both Bollingers feel, is the mastitis control program they’ve been on since January of this year. The program they’re in is somewhat controversial, and was begun several years ago by Dr. Burleigh Anderson, a Perry County veterinarian. As their production in creased, so did the Bollingers’ mastitis problems. “High produc tion,” Harold said, “is the one biggest stress you can put on a cow. We checked our milkers out, we changed them, and we just couldn’t get the mastitis whipped. But now we’ve got it under control.” Anderson’s method in volves testing every quarter in every cow for mastitis. From these tests, Anderson cultivates a vaccine to treat any staph or coliform organisms present in any particular herd. Theoretically, these vac cines could be used in other herds, but they work best in JOHN Z.

Any staph infections are treated with penicillin, but the Bollinger cows didn’t need that treatment. The years of hard work and planning are beginning to pay off for the Bollingers, who formed their part nership in 1968.

Exclusive high-flotation terra tires positioned up close to the cutterbar react quickly to ground contours. That’s front to-back balance, for cleaner cutting. Side-draft is alt but eliminated. Wheels are closer to the center of gravity, so nearly equal force pulls back on right and left sides. That’s side-to-side balance. There’s balanced power-delivery, too — gears running in oil drive the “crumper” rolls (crimp plus crush action). Stop in and see the 1209. Landis Bros. Inc.
