: AST MILKING WILL INCREASE PRODUCTION “Fast milking 1 ' will increase milk production, in spite of the 20 per cent eduction in feed supplies facing Inliana dairymen this year, compared vith last year's supplies, says E. A. Jannon, Purdue University extension lairyman. With a goal set for Indiana at 3,500,000,000 pounds of milk to be produced this year, the Hoosier farmer finds himself faced with these facts: production per cow is smaller this year than last; total production is about three to four per cent below last year; the feed supply has decreased about 20 per cent; and there are more cows on Indiana farms than there were a year ago. Fast milking will increase production about 10 per cent, if properly done. For this reason, says Gannon, demonstrations havb been held throughout the state, during March, for the benefit of hand milkers, machine milkers and manufacturers. In addition to increased production fast milking offers the following ad. vantages; 1. It is time saving. In many cases, total milking time is reduced by one-half. Frenquently, the number of milkers also is reduced. 2. It usually results in reducing, and frequently eliminating, the amount of strippings. 3. It results in greater cleanliness and hotter sanitation. , 4. It conforms with the natural process of milk ejection and result^ in healthier udders. 5. It helps to provide effective mastitis control.
jacks may bo put over the Mtter to keep the chicks from eating it. After a few day*,, the hover xuanl may be taken away and the p; per removed from the floor. If deep litter is u^ed in the brooder house, II should be kept well stirred and dry. A wire platform under the drinking fountains will help to keep the floor dry and the chicks from kicking litter into the fountains.

Keep A Light In The Brooder House
"Keep a light in the brooder hntix" tonight," suggests John H. Lunn Purdue University extension poultry man. A dim light helps lost chicks find their way back under the hover, and keeps them from piling up in tiie corners. A bright light sometimes L TTShfl by 'Krbiler raisers for speeding up growth by giving the chicks a longer feeding period. Farm poultry keepers are advised noi to follow this practice. Feeding troubles soon start when chicks are pushed in this way. unless the mash contains extra minerals and vitamins. To get the chicks started in tjie brooder house, have the house clean, the stove in proper working order, four inches of litter on the floor, and feeders and waterers ail set. A ring of cardboard may be used to k“ep the chicks near the heat and to keep floor drafts away the first few days. Wire covered with sacks will do the same job. Keep moving it back as the chicks grow. For the first few days, paper or
Soybeans Become Important Crop Soybeans are Indiana's No. 2 crop second only to corn in acreage planted. Some of the reasons for their popularity, say Purdue University extension agronomists, are: 1. Their ability to grow on both sweet and acid soils, although they do better on limed soils. 2. Their comparative freedom from disease and resistance to insects. 3. Their tolerance of drought ami poor drainage. 4. Their ability to do well in thin soils once they are properly inoculated. 5. They fit well in the crop rotation, use labor efficiently and are a profitbale crop. Soybeans are grown throughout the state as a cash grain crop, for hay. and to some extent for green manure and as a home-grown protein supplement. They furnish the only vegetable protein concentrate grown in Indiana, and their use whenever possible and economical provides an opportunity to feed a home-grown product. Indiana farmers interested in growing soybeans will find valuable information on the subject in a new Purdue Extension Bulletin, 231, “Saybeans in Indiana,” This bulletin covers the following points: soybeans in rotation; soybeans as a green manure crop; small grains following soybeans; wheat after soybeans; clover failures following soybeans; inoculation essetnial for success with soybeans; method oi inoculation; germination and moisture content cf seed, seed should be cleaned an.I graded; seed bed preparation and weed control; time and depth of planting; row compared to solid seeding; solid seeding directions; row seeding directions; yellow soybean varieties for commercial use; fertilizing; cultivation; harvesting soybeans for hay; combining; and storage and spoilage. Copies of the bulletin are available, free of charge, at any Indiana county agricultural extension office.

The following paragraphs worn taken from a leaflet on Economic Information and written by the Division of Agricultural Economics Pui • due University. Tighter Feed Situation In Prospect In 1943 our feed production wax not as great as in 1942. But livestock numbers continued to increase and began to cut down accumulated feed supplies. On January 1, 1944, 1^ S. supplier of corn and oats per grain consuming animal unit were 20 per cent less than on January 1, 1943. Indiana, also had 20 per cent less than a year earlier. It is evident that our carry over into the new crop year will be' very small and after the middle of the year the feed situation will depend upon the size of the 1944 crop. During the past year feed supplies were augmented by heavy feeding of wheat and rye. Supplies of these grains for feed will be much lower in 1944. Supplies of protein feeds will continue to be scarce in relation to what farmers would like to get. They will have difficulty in getting straight protein meal, and will have to depend mainly on mixed protein feeds, the prices which are likely to move upward in line with grain pric-
es.
Though hay supplies are adequate some areas are short. Huy prices, which are relatively free from price controls, will continue well above those of a year earlier. How acute the feed sir-ration will Ire In late 1944 and 1945 will depend I largely upon the size of the 1944 crop. Even with a record crop lik • that of 1942 some liquidation of livestock will be necessary. Liquidatioi | of hogs ami chickens is likely to be the greatest because they depend i heavily upon grains. Producers | should expect shorter supplies and | higher prices. It seems wise for producers to grow as much feed as possible and obtain purchased feed supplies well in advance of needs. Cows and hens should be culled more close ly than usual to obtain tne maximum production from feeds: Demand For Dairy Products Will Exceed Supply The demands for dairy products at ceiling prices during 1943 exceed ed the available supplies and in 1944 the demand is likely to be even stronger and will Increase the upward pressure on ceiling prices. Some upward adjustment in price.! can be expected. I^ks Milk Production Expected On January 1, 1944, there were 2 per cent more cows on U. S. farms than a year earlier, however, mill" production per cow as high as in 1943 is not likely because of the tighter feed situation. Government estimates indicated that within an average crop year, 1944 milk production is expect ed to be around 2 per cent less than in 1943. (Production will drop most uess man nuruioi acoaunai vtuici' tion in milk price* is likely to increase the proportion of 'milk produced during May, June and July Shortage of labor in some plants may handicap them in handling all the milk during the peak of production. Cost Of Milk Production Higher In Tanuary and February the in-
A Bit Of Advice A total of 2.003 men, women, boy. and girls attended the five Farmer Institute meetings held in Aliei County during February, Purdue o" ficials announced today. Cash an merchandise premiums t-it.diiig $37t 45 were awarded. Exhibits wee shown by 127 men, 253 women, and .89 boys and girls. The two high produ:lng cows com pleting 305-day records in Feliruar; in the Cass County Dairy Herd Improvement A uociation, were regia terod Holsteins owned by Bridge and Ivey. Records received at IFurdur show that one produced 489.3 pound, of butterfat anil 1160.) pounds «>; milk.
In this day of scarcities, it Is an advantage to know how to "rejuvennate" the old things one already possesses. Purdue Project Leaflet 16. “New Furnishings Articles from What Is on Hand," contains a num j her of suggestions for housewives on how to get the iv.-ist out of old things.
