EXTENSION SERVICE NOTES
Start now to make yard plans for
landscapings Bring them to the
Farm and Home Extension Institute
for discussion and suggestions.
To make a plan of your yard, put
on a piece of paper the location
of buildings, fences, gardens,
flower beds, grass, trees, and
other plants. Label them so that
Doan Gasser can help you as much
as possible in his limited tine.
It would also be well to mark
directions on your drawing.
Some plants love shade and some
prefer the sunny side of the house*
Any farmer who has a cow which
cannot be gotten with calf may
bo able to get results by dissolv -
ing a tablespoon of baking soda
in one quart of boiled warm
water and introducing this solu
tion into the vagina there is an
acid condition which tends to-,
kill the male sperm colls before
they are able to unite with the
egg cell. The soda and water
will reduce the acid condition
and permit normal fertilization
to take rlacet
This practice is not guaranteed
to w:■!’/ nrder* ell circumstances
because there a.re numerous causes
for a cow’s inability to breed.
If any or.e gets resailt3 from the
above treatment, will ho notify
the Extension Agent. Perhaps
another farmer will benefit by
the experience of his neighbor.
The time to dehorn your dairy cows
is when they are calves. Apply
ing caustic potash to a calf's
horns is so simple and pa.inlocs
that every farmer should do this.
A stic]: of caustic potash can be
purchased for abort ton cents and
it will Jast almost that many
years. If a farmer waits until
a cow's horns have to be cut off
the job is unpleasant and painful .
It means the loss of blood, dan
ger ox" infection, da.nger of colds,,
from Matanuska wind blowing into
the hollow stubs; itmorns a reduc
tion of milk flow or danger of
abortion of a calf.
