FARM OUTLOOK IS MORE FAVORABLE Nearby Farmers To Exchange Tips At Annual Institutes Soon. Price Rise To Aid Farmers This Year By D. F. TERRELL Independent Suburban Reporter THE EVENING INDEPENDENT MASSILLON OHIO Community Events Are Scheduled Early In FRIDAY. TANUARY 3.

1941 FARMERS NEED A PASTURE PLAN Systematic Program Necessary, Expert Asserts "If Ohio farmers are to high -quality livestock and livestock produce products at a cost making possible a margin of profit, good and sufficient declares pastures must be provided." D. R. Dodd, of the Agricultural Experiment Station's agronomy department, who say's this is possible unless 2. well-planned pasture program is in operation on the farm. Neither rotation nor permanent pastures, as originally handled, produce uniformly throughout the seasop or from year 10 year.

There is great variation in both and quality. On most farms the quantity amount of livestock for which pasture is needed is more or less constant throughout the season and from year to year. The problem of meeting constant demand by pasture areas that tend to produce great irregularly difficulty, can be solved without Dodd, if little according to Dr. a study is put into development of a pasture gram. The pasture season can be vided into three parts: spring and early summer, midsummer, and For spring and early summer, are two main sources of supply: permanent pasture, and meadow or rotation pasture.

The acreage required will depend upon the productivity of the land and the i treatment and management prac-1 tices followed. Usually with proper! two treatment and management one to; acres animal unit will sufficient. Where permanent pas-! ture of is the chief source, top-dress-: ings should be lime, fertilizer, and manure used as needed, and the areas should be so grazed and mowed herbage 35 at to keep the growth of all times down to 6 inches or less, This treatment ensures better yield and quality and. more uniformity in production. Fall protection and applications of nitro-! gen fertilizer during the winter or early spring limited of good About 10 grass day's to will provide two weeks earlier untreated pastures can be grazed.

Where rotation pasture is the source of supply, much can ing accomplished the by adapting the seedpurpose for Which is to be used and by applying sufficient fertilizer at sceding time to provide for good production. Surplus growth mowed from the permanent pasture area is usually left 012 the land because of the difficulty in handling. may, however, be put into the silo and is an excellent silage material. Surplus on the rotation pasture area may be used as bay or silage. Regardless of the source of spring and early summer pasture, additional pasture area will be needed in mid-summer.

Old growth held in reserve is not generally satisfactory. Special crops, such as Sudan grass, are very good, but 011 most farms probably the best source of this extra supply is one or more areas of a large legume-grass mixture, such alfalfa and timothy or alfalfa and orchard grass. If early hay has been taken from such areas. there will be available by the middle of July a second growth of good-quality herbage for pasture. Areas that provide the for spring and early summer pasture will come back again in the fall, but not as productive as in the earlier period.

Supplemental areas that may be used for pasture during are this time are meadows which to be broken the spring, new seedings to following such extent as growth and areas that were used supplement in midsummer, also to the extent that additional growth 011 them justifies. ason Thomason. of Massillon.

Prospects for formers near Mas-! sillon are favorable regarded as considerably! more fo: 1941 than several recent Income Rises Two significant facts were noted by farm experts at the close of 1940.1 The first was that farm income was' $24,000,000 higher than in 1939 and: the second was that prices, which! received serious setbacks as a result of the European conflict, on' appear the way up due to a resurging domestic market.

Recommended to farmers this; year is an increase in efficiency! rather than an increase in While prices are rising, it follows! that costs will eventually rise portionately and farmers stand tol pro-. gain the most income by carefully taking guarding costs of production and by: advantage of every possible; shortcut to greater profits.

Rub VapoRub on throat, chest and back and cover with a warmed cloth. VapoRub acts to bring relief 2 ways at once. It stimulates surface of chest and back like a poultice.

At the same time it releases helpful medicinal vapors that are breathed direct into the irritated air passages. Both Va-tro-nol and VapoRub have been tested through years of use in millions of homes. When you use these two medicines you are not experimenting, you are not taking needless chances. Remember: If the condition of the cold fails to respond quickly to treatment -or if more serious trouble is indicated -call your family physician right away. meantime be prepared! Get a bottle of Vicks Va-tro-nol and a jar Vicks VapoRub today -have them handy, ready to use.

COLUMBUS, Jan. the season approaches for planting spring crops, Ohio farmers begin searching for new and better crop varieties, and there always are offers of woncrous varieties which almost invarlably become disappointments at harvest time. Ohio Cari Jones, extension State university, recommends agronomist, that Ohio farmers plant the varieties of field crops which have been tested by the experiment station. These tests cover a period of several years for each variety recommended, and yield records include trials in several parts of the state. The spring barleys recommended.

for Ohio are Velvet Glabron. Both are smooth-awned and yield well but the Glabron has a slightly stiffer straw. No beardless barley has yielded satisfactorily in tests made by the experiment station. The recommended white oats for northern Ohio are Gopher, Wayne, mid-season; and Miami and early; Victory, both late; and Franklin, early red oat. In southern Ohio, Co-! lumbia, a very early gray oat; Franklin and Fulgum, both early oats; and Gopher; an early white oat are considered best.

All seed! oats should be inspected for weed seed and those grown locally ordivarily will outyield seed brought in front a distance. Hybrid seed corn varieties suitabiel for production all Ohio comniunities have been tested. The agro11cmy department has prepared a map showing which varieties should bc planted in different localities and these maps can be obtained in extension agents' offices. Mr. Jones! warns that the practice of planting maturing hybrids will prove.

disastrous eventually when a slowgrowing season is ended by an early frost. Open pollinated corn for silage in the northeastern dairy section may be chosen from the varieties Laycaster Sure Crop, Big Golden, Golden Queen, and Scioto White for a late variety. Varieties later than yields Scioio of White will not produce larger dry matter although the green weight may be higher. farmers now are using adapted Many brids for silage as well as for ERIE ENGINEER DIES CLEVELAND, Jan, 3.

Light is only apparent when reflected, such as by planets. things influence the anOhio farm families but two basic. appear to be the size of the farm head of livestock or poultry. The department of rural economjcs, Ohio State university, summarizes each year the farm records of more than 1,000 farms, and these records provide some pertinent information on reasons for profits or losses in farming. These summaries are sent to each of the farm bookkeepers so he can compare his own income and expenditures with those on similar farms.

Out of a group of general livestock farms in north centra! Ohio, the average family labor Income on 35 farms averaging 206 acres in size for 1938 and for 1939 was $1,866. -In the same group, 35 farms averaging 160 acres in size produced a labor income of $24 each of the two The larger farms had 38 acres more per farm planted to crops the amount of livestock kept was' decidedly larger, Each man on the larger farm devoted 257 days to 'care' of crops and livestock while the. smaller farms provided only 203 days of work for each man. Yields Higher Crop yields on the 35 farms which' averaged 206 acres in size exceeded those on the 160-acre farms 1.9 tons of silage per acre, 8 bushels corn, 1.5 bushels of wheat, ton of hay. The larger farms had' 50 tons of hay each -year as compar-' ed with.

39 tons for the smaller group, and a greater proportion- of the hay was clover, alfalfa or legume mixture on the larger farms. in Considerable differences appeared, the production secured from livestock and poultry on the more profitable farms. Dairy products per cow on the 206-acre group averaged $62.34 for each of the two years but were $47.43 on the 35 160- acre farms. Egg sales per hen were: $2.31 the for the first group and $1.34 for second. Lambs per ewe and pigs per sow were higher on the larger farms.

Return Grealer The larger farms used $1,852 worth of feed each year of which $328 worth was purchased. The amount of feed used on the 160-acre group averaged $1,311 each year with $161 worth of it purchased. The return' for each $1 worth of feed used was: $1.69 on the 206-acre farms and was $1.11 on the 160-acre 3 Members of the rural economics: department say that outstanding, managerial ability can overcome handicaps imposed by size of farm: but the same ability would rield. greater dividends on a larger enter-: prise. It also is true in times of low: prices for farm products when pro fits are impossible that the smaller, farm will lose less money than the! larger one, a.

Mrs. Myra Allison At a treacherous time like this, with an epidemic of contagious colds all around you, what you do today may save you and your family a lot of sickness, worry and trouble later. Follow these simple rules of health: Live normally. Avoid excesses. Eat simple food.

Drink plenty of water. Keep elimination regular. Take some exercise daily- -preferably outdoors. Get plenty of rest and sleep. Then use these two time-tested treatments when needed.

AT THE FIRST SNIFFLE, SNEEZE OR NASAL put a few drops of Vicks Va-tro-nol up each nostril. This helps to prevent many colds from de cloping, because Va-tro-nol is ture's expressly own designed to help Nadefenses against colds. (If a head cold causes stuffiness, you'll find that a few drops of Va-tro-nol helps clear the clogging mucus and makes breathing freer and easier.) SATURDAY VALUES P. J. BORDNER CO.
