CRICKS NEED ROOM
~~ When winter chicks are brooded
they need more room. In a 10 by 12-
~ foot house 200 chicks should be kept
_ instead of 300, as they will occupy
in the normal season,
FEED COWS ROUGHAGE
s To get the greatest returns from the
~ feed dollar this winter through dairy
grain carefully weighed out to each
cow according to her actual needs
should be the rule.
VENTILATION ESSENTIAL
Good ventilation in the storage place
aids rapid cooling of the fruit placed
: there. Doors, windows, and ventilat-
‘ing shafts should be arranged so that
air will move through the entire
length of the room, thus bringing a
fresh supply of cool air to each apple,
say Penn State fruit specialists.

CULL POOR EWES
All unproductive ewes should be
culled out of the flock now. The
group picked to go will include ewes
with broken mouths, bad udders, and
light shearing prospects.
STORE VEGETABLES RIGHT
Many vegetables keep well in stor-
‘age only when cool, moist conditions
are maintained. Root crops and leafy
_ vegetables are in this group. Ask
your county agent for complete infor-
mation on the subject.
KEEP COWS WARM
