six calves and always have milk
replacer in them to keep calves
from sucking air.
“The proper placement of
nipples allows calves to simulate
their natural eating position,’’ said
Galbraith. “This helps stimulate
the proper closing of the
esophageal groove. In addition,
suckling produces about three
times as much saliva as does
bucket-feeding, important tot he
initial digestion of fat in the
abomasum.”
Early-Gro Cold Ad Lib Formula
milk replacer now is available
through Young’s field represen
tatives, Galbraith said.
Woodland
II owners to meet
LANCASTER Do you own
woodlands? Can they be made
more attractive to wildlife? What
about harvesting - what kinds of
trees should be harvested and
when? How much is timber worth
and what kinds of things should be
considered before selling your
timber?
At some point in time, most
landowners seek answers to these
kinds of questions. Unfortunately,
the answers are not always easy to
find. In a few short weeks,
however, woodland owners in
southeastern Pennsylvania will be
able to find answers to these and
other questions at the Woodland
Owners Conference scheduled for
Saturday, Sept. 29, at the Holiday
Inn, located in Ephrata. The
conference is being sponsored by
the Berks County Conservation
District, several other area
Conservation Districts, and the
Pennsylvania Forestry
Association.
Subjects which will be discussed
include: forest management
practices for timber production
and unproved wildlife habitat;
how to sell timber; factors that
determine the value of standing
timber; where to find forestry
assistance; gypsy moth problems
and more.
The program will begin at 9:15
a.m., with final registration and
coffee and donuts available from
8:30 a.m. on A buffet lunch will be
served at noon, and since space is
limited, it will be necessary to
register in advance for this event.
Registration cost is $12.00 per
person, $9.00 for each additional
Family member. This fee includes
the buffet lunch, coffee and donuts
and a Woodland Owners In
formation Package.
Registration forms and further
information is available from the
Berks County Conservation
District office, County Extension
office and also by calling or writing
to the Pennsylvania Forestry
Association, 410 East Main Street,
Mechanicsburg, Penna., 17055;
(717) 766-5371.
Space is limited so don’t delay,
register as soon as possible.
Registration will be open until
September 13th, as long as space is
available.
