Melt butter in milk on
stove. Dissolve yeast in
%cup of warm water and let
set. Combine sugar and
soften in a large dishpan.
Add hot milk and butter. Stir
until dissolved and add cold
water. Gradually stir in flour
until it is too stiff to stir
anymore. Continue to knead
flour until it is the right
consistancy. The more you
knead it the better it will get.
Grease lightly on top with
lard or oil. Cover with a
cloth. Let rise and then work
down. Let rise again. Bake in
oven at 350*F. for 30
minutes. Makes eight
loaves. While bread is still
hot, rub with butter on top.
Place in bags while warm to
keep moist. Optional: one
cup of oatmeal may be
added to make a softer
bread. The flour can be 4
cups of whole wheat flour
and the rest white, also.

Animal lovers will agree
that pets, like people,
sometimes develop strange
personality quirks.
And, when a farmer works
with a herd of dairy cows, he
soon zeroes in on which old
girls are apt to give him a
headache.
There’s always at least
one „ four-legged lady that
flatly refuses to use the
comfortable stalls we
provide. Instead, she’ll
inevitably plop herself into
the morning’s accumulation
of manure, just as someone

starts up the tractor to
scrape out the bam floor.
Fence jumpers are, of
course, legendary. They
develop a finely tuned ex
trasensory perception which
enables them to identify a
loose post or snapped wire
from clear across a quarter
mile meadow.

VttTRU from Surge.
if you’re a dairyman, check out the rugged, new TRU
manure handling system from Surge
The TRU converts raw dairy manure into two valuable,
easy-to-handle by-products A high nutrient liquid fertilizer,
and a low-moisture, near-odorless solid that can be used as
a source of quality bedding or sold as garden mulch
Incoming manure is agitated in a process pit beneath
the TRU The agitated slurry is then pumped through 4 sets
of pressurized rubber rollers and perforated steel drums
to separate solids from the liquids The solid has the
consistency of commercial peat moss The liquid contains
approximately 85% of the fertilizer value, and because of its
water-like consistency can be easily transferred to a lagoon
or field with no further agitation
With a 100 cow herd, the TRU could easily convert
a messy, smelly problem into $5OOO-sBooo*
worth of high nutrient fertilizer,
plus 36,000-54,000 cu ft
of quality bedding or saleable
soil conditioner per year

Causing us problems at the
moment are a select group of
about six cows suffering the
pangs of “calf-snatching
snydrome.” Sarah is the
worst culprit.
Most calves manage to
stand on their wobbly legs
within the first half-hour of
birth. Instinct next drives
them to nuzzle the underside
of their mother, who stays
protectively near, until they
locate her udder and nurse
those first gulps of rich
colostrum, filled with
natural protective an
tibodies.
Sarah has learned to sneak
up to a newborn and huddle
close to the still-wet infant
under the pretense of
welcoming the addition to
the herd. By the time the
baby has struggled to its
feet, Mom Sarah has
maneuvered herself into a
position whereby the hungry

calf finds her first. She
generally accomplishes tl
feat by planting her three
quarter ton body directly
over the calf as it stands.
Not only does the baby
then miss out on the
mother’s special-produced
first drink, but Sarah refuses
to let down her milk at
milking time. Instead she
holds it back, hoping
somehow to sneak back to
the borrowed calf, and
stands bawling with th
warted love. Meanwhile, the
calf gets penned with its real
mother.
However, there may be a
cure for her hangup. What
Sara needs is to be quartered
day and night with a half
dozen ever hungry growing
calves. I suspect that she’d
soon be so weary from
constant attention that she’d
never want to look at another
calf again.

manure nutrient values will vary based
