FARM CALENDAR
Timely Reminders from
The Pennsylvania State College
School of Agriculture
Substitute for Corn,
Where conditions permit, winter
barley can be grown for livestock
feed as a substitute for corn. On fer-
tile soil, it yields well and will be
ready for feeding several months be-
fore next year’s corn crop, say ex-
tension specialists of the Pennsylva-
nia State College. Tt costs less to
grow than corn.
Build Calf Pens.
Dry, warm, well ventilatea pens
are needed for best growth and de-
velopment of dairy calves, remind the
dairy specialists of the Pennsylvania
State College. Slatted floors often
will change a pen that has been cold
with a damp floor, into one that is
warm and dry. Use individual pens
for young calves.
Make Good Silage.
Experiments show that corn in the
dented stage makes sileage of the
highest feeding value content. This
year when grain is hard to get for
livestock feeding, agronomists and
feed specialists of the Pennsylvania
State College suggest that corn be
cut for silage when it will produce
the most feed.
Provide Convenient Housing.
A satisfactory house for laying
hens will provide comfort for the
birds, supply equipment to promote
feed consumption and egg produc-
tion, and help to save labor, say the
poultry specialists of Pennsylvania
State College.
Wheat Yields Best.
In ten of the eleven wheat variety
demonstrations conducted by the ag-
ricultural extension service of tne
Pennsylvania State College this year,
Thorne was the best yielder, averag-
ing 3.7 bushels an acre above the
next best variety, Nured.
Prevent Forest Fires.
Everyone who goes into the forest
should be careful about starting fires.
Smokers and campers especially need
to be careful, remind Penn State ex-
tension foresters.
Turkeys Go to War.
The Army Quartermaster Corps is
buying 10 million pounds of turkey to
be shipped overseas. Poultry special-
ists of the Pennsylvania State Col-
lege say that the turkeys are to be
used in Thanksgiving and Christmas
dinners to be served American men
at every base or fighting front ab-
road.
Maintain Herd Health.
State and National programs re-
quire the control of certain dairy
cattle diseases. The success of these
programs depends upon careful man-
agement and sanitation of the dairy
farm. In the opinion of dairy special-
ists of the Pennsylvania State Coll-
ege, one of the first essentials is a
maternity pen.
Fumigate Grain Insects.
All grain that is stored should be
fumigated soon after it is threshed,
say eptimologists of the Pennsylvania
State College. A mimeographed cir-
cular which describes the fumigation
and treatment of bins may be ob-
tained from your county agricultural
extension association office.
House Mature Pullets.
Some poultrymen find it easier to
catch pullets on the range at night
when it is time to place them in the
laying house. Penn State poultry spe-
cialists point out that it is more dif-
ficult to select the pullets according
to maturity at night.
Prepare Bait Stations.
Where there is rank growth of cov-
er crops in the orchard, it is expect-
ed that the mouse population may be
large this year. Fruit specialists of
the Pennsylvania State College urge
that bait stations be placed now, and
poisoned bait used later.
UNION PRESS-COURIER.
Pd
ES, YOU can back that boy you know
so well —can help as though your arm
were around his shoulder, your hand load-
ing his gun as he fights his way into
Europe!
Segport the INVASION!
Now, in this month of September, is your
great opportunity to help support the
INVASION —not with your blood, not
even with a gift, but just by making the
safest investment in the world.
Your part is at least one extra $100 War
Bond during the Drive—af least $100.
That's in addition fo your regular War
Bond purchases. Everyone who possibly
can must invest at least $100. Some of you
must invest thousands in order to meet
our national quota. Invest out of income.
Invest out of idle and accumulated funds.
This is how you can follow “Old Glory”
right into the heart of Europe.
