Now Is the Time (Continued from Pag# AID) be the best indicator of potential yield. Individual plants may respond to low plant population by producing more stems per square foot. Wisconsin research shows that maximum yields are produced with SS or more stems per square foot. Next spring, after growth starts, return to suspected fields and count the number of stems per square foot. When stems average only 40 per square foot, yields are reduced by 25 percent Identification of suspected fields in the fall will save time next spring when things are rushed.

Some other dairy princesses and I were explaining the route that milk takes to get from the cow to the store where their parents buy it. I was asked to assist on one tour because it was a particularly large group and only one FFA member, Ann from Cedar Crest, was available for the tour. When we came to where the cows were being milked the chil dren were able to see part of what we, as dairy princesses, had explained to them earlier. I would like to especially thank two far mers who took the time to explain the milking process to these chil- fg^S^- THK, % \l3 uipment Automatic Parts Washers! UncMUr Fnwmg.

These fanners even opened the bulk tank and pointed out the “HUGE” milk truck to these stu dents. Unfortunately. I didn’t have a chance to get your names and addresses for a more personal note of thanks, so I hope that this paper makes its way into your hands. I pray that the children’s appe tite for learning touched you, as your willingness, patience and enthusiasm to share your knowl edge with them encouraged me to continue to do my best to promote this wonderful industry. These children will probably not remember everything you told them but at least they were impressed by the cleanliness and the technology used in the produc tion of their food. THANK YOU!!!!!
