FARM NOTES
Milk Production

Now is the time to plan for milk
production for next fall. Heifers
that are approaching Is to II
months of age should be watched
carefully for heat periods so that
definite plans can be made to breed
them during November. December
and January for next falls milk
production.
"For best breeding results" John
Dietrich, University of Maryland
extension dairyman saws "the
h.aifers should be oaininp in weight
at breeding time. 1t is always pood
practice to supply additional feed
previous to the breeding season,
especially if the heifers have been
on short fall pasture. High quality
hay placed in the feed bunk in the
pasture will do wonders for heifers
approaching breeding age. Two or
J three pounds of grain per head
each day is recommended if the
helferS are IN poor condition.
ain herds where a large number
of heifers are to be bred, it may
be advisable to senarate the heifers
into two groups" Dietrich points
out. " the older heifers to be bred
during November and December
and the Younger group to be bred
during January and early Febru-
airy.
"Most important of all is to
breed all of these heifers to a good
proven bull. Consider your coopera-
tive bull stud when making your
fall breeding plans" Dietrich ad-
vises.

Maryland Nurses
Group to Be
ReOrganized

The reorganization of Mary
lands professional nursing groups
will be completed at their annual
convention in Baltimore on Novem-
Der 5, 6 and 7, according to Miss
NJ. Ruth Moubray, executive secre-
tary of the Maryland State Nurses
Association.
At this time a new organization,
The Maryland League for Nursing
will be established. 1t will replace
both the MARYLAND State League
of Nursing Education and the
Maryland State Organization for
Public Health Nursing and will be
composed of nurses and other citi-
zens. The Maryland League for
Nursing will aim at developing
and improving organized nursing
services and education through the
coordinated efforts of nurses, al
lied professional groups, citizens,
agencies and Schools" Miss Mou-
bray said.
Reorganization plans also call
for revision and expansion of the
present Maryland State Nurses AS
ISOLATION. 1t will continue to be an
organization of professional regis
tered nurses only.
Miss Moubray pointed out that
the Maryland State Nurses Asso-
citation will be concerned with func-
tions which should be the sole re-
sponsibility of the members of the
profession. The New Maryland
League for Nursing will be con-
cerned with functions which the
members of any profession should
share with the consumers of the
product and with allied professional
workers.
The two Maryland. organizations
will be constituent units of the
American Nurses Association and
the National League for Nursing
respectively.

Motor Burn-Outs

If you have been having trouble
with electric motors burning ont,
here's good news for you: costly
burn-outs can be prevented. What
you need is adequate wiring, a
motor big enough for the job and
motor protective devices. such as
fustats. fustrons, or special motor
starting switches.
b A. V. Krewatch, extension agri-
cultural engineer from the Univer-
sity of Maryland suggests this
method for preventing motor burn
out:
"Make sure wiring is adequate.
Starting a motor takes three to
five times as much current as it
does to run it, once started. If a
fuse is large enough to start a
motor, it's too large to protect it.
Your rural service man of your
power supplier or a local electric
contractor can check over your
Wiling anu ICCUlIlIIlcilu HeCeSSdTy
changes.
at takes special equipment to
protect the motor, such as time de-
lay fuses or motor starting switch
es. Time delay fuses, mustats or
fustrons, permit starting current
to flow long enough to get motors
started. But if excess current con-
tinues to flow, the fuse will pop
and disconnect the motor before
it gets overheated. Motor starting
switches have special elements that
handle the starting current, but
not for too long. If the rush of cur
rent continues too long, or if an
overload develops during running,
the switch will open the circuit
and prevent the motor from being
destroyed. 1t is important to be
sure the switch has the correct rat
ing for the motor on which it is
used"

Jersey Production Championship
Brought to States From Canada

A registered Jersey COW in Ore
gon by the name of June Volunteer
Fantasy has brought a production
championship of her breed to the
United States which had been held
by a Canadian COW for 10 years.
: Close to the midnight hour on
October 26 she completed a $685.
day Register of Merit record of
20,097 pounds milk containing l.
3l9 pounds butterfat. 1t beat by 6
pounds the Canadian butterfat rec
ord held by Brampton Basilua pro-
nounced Basil-yua) since 1888.
The nwe production champ is
owned by Lindow Jersey Farm, In
dependence, Ore. She starte her
career at the age of l
year and 8 months at a pace not
too often equaled by the most out
standing mature cows. At 6 years
of age she had broken a breed rec
ord that had stood for 10 years
and brought her total production to
60,760 pounds milk containing g.
$50 pounds butterfat.
June Volunteer Fantasy made
her championship record on a fam
ily-sized dairy farm which is owned
and operated by Mr.. and Mrs. John
E. Lindow and their two children,
June, Is, and Danny, 9. The COW
was fed from IS to 20 pounds of
home grain mix containing about
1879 protein each day she was on
test and all of the top quality hay
she could consume. She grazed with
the rest of the herd during the
summer months. Seven different
official testing supervisors from
Oregon, Washington, and Idaho
checked her daily production on 20
different occasions during the rec
crd.

"Water cooled motors that will

anti-freeze. Be careful about using
alcohol base compounds, since they
boil awav at approximately 1875
degrees F. Since most farm trac-
tors and trucks run hest at 165 to
1876 degrees, alcohol base anti
freezes may boil away at these
temperatures, leaving the motor
unprotected. Glycerine base per-
manent type anti-freezes are best
for such engines. The cheaper salt
solutions or petroleum base anti
freezes may prove to be the most
expensive in the long run, because
they often corrode and ruin

Dairy Farmers Can
Cut Costs and
Increase Returns

According to studies made in
Michigan, herdsmen can cut the
cost of producing 100 lbs. Of milk
by nearly 50R. The amount o.
milk produced on each farm can
be increased by as much as 75aa
without increasing the amount of
land or labor needed or without in
creasing the number of cows. The
increase in production under these
conditions would increase profits
on dairy farms and would bring
dairy farmers more in line with
returns on investment to other
farmers and business. Present re-
turns, on investment and for labor
on dairy farms are much lower
than for other types of farming
and this is one of the reasons for
the 1870 drop since 1914 in COW
numbers in this country.
Farmers can cut costs, increase
milk production and returns by
adopting the following practices.
l. Upbreed the herd from poor
or average stock to good cows. Do
this by improving breeding prac-
tees, culling the low producers and
improving general management
practices. The result = 10000 lb.
mixers rather than 5000 lbs.
2. Improve building arrange
ments and style. If you need new
dairy barn, consider a pole-type
barn. This will save POO of the
cost of housing an animal as COM
pared to the conventional stanchion
barn. Where rebuilding is not need
ed, make sure that the present
structures are being used most eff
ficiently.
3. Improve chore equipment. Re-
pair or replace worn out parts and
keep movable items where most
used and in good condition.
4. Improve feeding methods.
Don't feed all cows the same
amount of grain. Those producing
10000 lbs. of milk require and can
can profitably be fed considerably
more grain than those giving 6 or
7 thousand lbs.
5. Feed good roughage. This APP
plies whether it is pasture, hay or
silage. High quality pastures con-
sisting Of alfalfa, clovers and other
legumes and grasses will save 300
to 800 lbs. of protein supplement
and grain per cow as well as 800
lbs. of hay or silage during the
pasture, season.
Roughage to be of high quality
must be grown on soil which is
well supplied with minerals such
as nitrogen phosphate, potash, cal
CUM, magnesium and many other
minor elements. To assure maxi
mum returns from dairying be sure
to use enough fertilizer and lime
to produce quality roughage.
