The false spring weather We
have been having for the last few
weeks has caused a lot of con-
fusion on The 40 Acres.
I have noticed the buds on the
naples have swollen almost to the
bursting stage, the japonica near
iy came into full bloom and the
daffodils are about inches high.
Clover, too, is beginning to come
out of the ground, and the pas
lures to take on a brighter green
color.
I noticed a great commotion
outside a hive of bees the other
day. The bees were flying in cir
cles above the hive, drawn out by
the warm sun. But there were no
flowers in bloom yet, and it
seemed like the bee> were bewil-
dered-the sunshine spoke of
flowers and nectar which had not
yet been released from winters
grasp.
The swarm of bees that settled
last summer in an empty hive
beside the front porch and trou-
bled our guests during the warm

see If there was any activity.
There was. Bees swarmed out
by the hundreds and sent me off
in a hurry to hide behind the
barn. There was NO stings, my
speed was too great.

Our calico cat has begun the
education of her kittens. We have
watched this with other litters
and know how successful she is
in turning out good mousers.
The schooling begins with a
dead mouse or two, just to give
the kittens general idea and a
taste of what to cats must be q
delicacy.
Then comes a succession of live
mice, and heaven help the kitten
that lets one get away. If kitten
is careless it gets slapped into a
backward somersault. A hard
school. but one that gets results.

Many gardeners are preparing
orders for early delivery of lime
stone ard fertilizer for garden
and lawn. A 10-5-4 or 1854 mix
ture is best for the grass ard leafy
vegetables although a straight
nitrogen fertilizer is all that some
think necessary for spring lawn
feeding. A 5-10-5 mixture is best
for vegetables and flowers, al
though the high nitrogen ferti-
lizers are suitable for lettuce, cab-
bage, chard, etc.
Most laws benefit by a light
application of pulverized lime
stone-not hydrated Interpreter
ably one that contains some mag
nesium. This limestone is also
the kind that should be used in
the garden. Apply just before
spading so that it will be mixed
with the soil. The rate of appli-
cation is best determined by a soil
test. but some gardeners make a
light application every two or
three years and seemingly keep
their soil in condition. However,
over-liming can be injurious.
Now is a good time to apply Q
4-D lester form, to the garlic
plants in the yard. While young
and tender they are more likely
to be successfully controlled than
at any other season. The 2, 4-D
is more effective when applied on
a warm day (if we have one be-
tween now and mid March.
1t may pay to arrange now for
the seeds of those crops which may
be planted in early March. Pota-
toes are one of the first crops to
go into the ground-Katahdin is
good mid-season variety: Sc
bago and Chippewa, are others,
although the Irish Cobbler is still
the fayorite early variety of many
gardeners. Potatoes to succeed in
this area must be planted in
March and be brought along
rapidly sc, that they will form
their tubers before hot weather
checks the growth.
Spring seeding of the lawn i'm
plies to most people the sowing of
seed in late March or early April.
Few realize that it takes as much
as month for grass seed (Ken-
lucky Bluegrass) to germinate and
that the young plants from seed
sown in March are hardly ready
to begin growth until April. OF
course, this means that the grass
plants cannot be rooted deeply

enough to Withstand summer heat
and drought.
Spring seeding to the grass
specialist means seeding in jan
uary or February-scatter the seed
on top of the ground and let the
frost action carry it into the soil.
If the soil is bare scatter compost,
sand or straw over the seed rather
than try to rake it into the soil.
Fruit tree buds are in a rather
tender condition and need mild
cool weather to regain their
hardness. A sharp freeze, one
that approaches zero, is likely to
kill them unless there is a consid-
cradle period with temperatures
around freezing, to harden" them.
The Potomac Rose Society urges
all rose growers to "hill" their
roses as soon as possible as a pro-
lection against winter injury.
The mild winter has kept the wood
soft and susceptible to freeze dam
age. A dirt mound 8 or 10 inches
high will give protection to the
base of the bush in case of a severe
freeze.
Amaryllis bulbs should be started
by now or they will hardly provide
bloom at the season when most
gardeners desire it-late February
and early March Liquid ferti-
lizer applied to the growing plant
every two or three weeks is usually
needed for these strong growers.
Try lily-of- -the-valley pips for
forcing. They need only support
of pebbles, of spaghnum moss, or
dirt in shallow dish or bowl to
bloom and make a pleasing show
ing. Place three to eight pips in
each container. The prepared
german" pips force mosts easily.
Prepare the cold-frame for duty
beginning the latter part of this
month. If it is properly protected
from strong winds, is mounded
with dirt to keep out the cold, the
hardy vegetable seeds may be sown
with safety. For immediate use,
ut can be converted to a hotbed
with electric heating element and
thermostat. w. H. Y.

Farm and Garden
Select New and Old PerennioIs
For Sumn1er-Long Show of Bloom
BY w. H. Younqmon
Garden Editor

The choice of perennials for the
home garden is not as easy as it
may seem. especially if you would
have good perennials. Just be-
cause they are new is not a guar
antee that they will fill the bill.
If you would have choice plants,
in the sense that they are adapted
to your garden, are vigorous and
free-f1owering, it will pay to con-
slider some of the old-timers as
well as the newer varieties.
For early spring bloom the prim-
roses are still good. The large
flowered forms are snowy. Instead
of buying primula veris, try Mum
stead hybrids, primula veris colos-
suS, etc. They will need shade
and a moderately moist situation
for best results.
Occasionally we find a gardener
growing the globefower, or troll
lius, which follow the primroses
in season of bloom. They also
demand shady situation, possibly
on the north side of the house.
They need abundant moisture.
One gardener had unusual sue
cess with the trollius under the
shade of an apple tree where the
impervious clay soil effectively re-
tanned the moisture. Golden
queen and orange queen are good
early varieties and Ledebouri for
late Towering.
New Tritoma Varieties.
Most gardeners fear to plant
the Tritoma, or torchlily, remem-
bering the Red-Hot Poker, whose
dominating color just didn't be-
long in the border. There are

Skim Milk Calf Raising
BeltsviIIe Experiments Show Dairy Calves
Do Well Without Whole Milk Diet

Henry T. Converse of the Bu-
reau of Dairy Industry at the
Agriculture Research Center at
Beltsville. Md, has come to the
conclusion that dairy calves often
are fed more whole milk than is
necessary for their proper growth
and development.
Mr.. Converse reached these con-
clusions after almost 20 years
spent in the experimental feeding
of calves. During this period he
also has found that farmers may
be feeding calves more grain than
is needed for their development.
For years dairy farmers have
been advised to feed calves colo
strum milk for the first two or
three days, followed with whole
milk for two to four weeks and
then skim milk until the calf is
from 6 to months old.
This means the average calf
would get about $50 pounds Of
whole milk and about 1900 pounds
of skim milk. At present prices,
this would cost the farmer almost
$500 for each calf.
Whole Milk Eliminated.
Mr.. Converse. however, discov-
cred that calves made satisfactory
gains when given no whole milk.
His calves were fed colostrum milk
for three days and then were
switched directly to skim milk.
They received from 280 to 460
pounds of skim milk, at a cost of
from a little better than $25 to
a little more than $40.
In the skim milk method, the
milk was supplemented with vita
min A in the form of either caro-
tene oil, ounces of grated gar
den carrots, or two to four tea
eroons of cod liver nil dai1y

Livestock
Notes

The Beef Cattle Research Sta
ton at Front Royal now is stocked
to capacity, considering the help
and feed available. There are 142
head of Shorthorns, "a Aberdeen
Angus and los Herefords. B. M.
Priode is superintendent.
The only man to show three
international grand champions
at the Chicago International,
B. A. Rucker, jr., has recently
purchased a farm of 100 acres at
East Ham. a few miles out of
Charlottesville, Va. He intends to
move some of his own Angus from
the Hillcrest home farm at
Upperville.
DR.. j. w. Still of Sterling, Va,
and George Washington Univer-
sity's Medical School staff, has
recently acquired a nice grade
herd of Herefords.
William G. Merrells, Burling-
ton, w. Va, is reorganizing his
Angus bull battery. Their En-
vious Emulous sire, whose daugh-
ter, Elsa of r. L. S., was the
1947 international female grand
champion is the cause for this
action. He is also making new
arrangements for the farm man
agement.
In the Monticello Hotel at Char
lottesville, Va, the annual meet
ing of the Angus Association of
Virginia was held last month.
A report was made by Fieldman-
Secretary Treasurer Dave Can
ming. Two years ago L. w. Tur-
ner of Old Elkton Farm, Forest.
Va, was elected president. He
began at once to re-vitalize the
organization. Today there are 391
members and a net worth of $20,-
1856, of which $4,000 is in cash,
the kind of a statement the bank
ers like to see. During 1949, there
were nine association-sponsored
sales. Receipts were $218,895 at
an expense of $23,875.65. There
were 558 head sold and the aver
age net per head was S349.10.
At this meeting. r. E. Blanton
of Richmond, Va, was elected
president.
When L. B. Norman of Middle
burg gave his daughter, Mildred,
a birthday present of six Here
fordS, he set a good example for
other parents. Miss Norman sold
the six last November after they
had put on 500 pounds in one year
and more than doubled their cost.
She then bought nine heifers of
the same breed at Front Royal.
They are on her fathers farm of
284 acres. Miss Norman said, IT
know I am lucky to be able to
carry on this sideline. I'm only
81 years of age anG have much to
learn about running a farm, but

The Holstein calves were
weaned from the skim milk at
80 to so days of age, and the
Jersey calves were weaned at As
to go days. Good hay, either Sec
ond cutting alfalfa or early cut
clover timothy, and a palatable
high-protein grain mixture, were
offered by the time the calves
were 10 days old. Plenty of clean
water was kept before the ami
mails at all times.
Commenting that the common
practice is to feed calves more
than a ton of grain between birth
and freshening age, Mr.. Converse
said feeding experiments at Belts
vile indicate dairymen may be
spending more money than is
necessary for grain supplies.
Grain Feeding Reduced.
He said calves at the center
have matured satisfactorily when
no more than $50 to 500 pounds
of grain have been fed. The ami
mals have made good gains and
have gone into the milking barns
in good condition. he said, when
given nothing but good hay after
eight months of age.
Pointing to a group of bred
Jersey heifers in one of the barns,
Mr.. Converse said only two in
the lot were receiving grain.
These appeared to have a slightly
finer coat than the others, but
may not have been as deep in
body as the roughage-fed ami
mails.
Mr.. Converse said he was in
clined to believe that good rough
age. when fed alone, produced
deeper bodies on dairy heifers.
