Wintering the Brood Cow
One of the largest problems
among cattle owners in this area
is the problem of wintering the
brood cow.
Don’t think this is the only
area suffering from this
problem. This is a statewide
condition that should be cor
rected if the beef industry is
to really grow in this section.
Research has indicated that
beef herds wintered without
supplemental feed have but a 50
percent calf crop, and the aver
age weaning weight of these cal
ves born is only about 300
pounds. To add even more dis
couraging facts there is a five
percent annual death loss of the
cows. Still another problem re
sulting from this underfed con
dition is that the cows calve
only in alternate years, as they
fail to bree successful while
nursing calves.

Storing Cotton Seed
In storing cotton seed one of
the first considerations you
should undertake to store seed
according to moisture and qua
lity.
These seed should be stored
in bags, if possible.
If the seed are piled make
sure the pile is small and the
depth shallow until the mois
ture is at a safe level.
You should turn the seed
with a seed fork, and move the
seed from one area to another
while turning.
The cooling system should
be designed to pull the air down
through a pile of seed into
wooden ducts or tunnels so that
the moisture laden air may be
freely discharged.
Money can be made in sell
ing good cotton seed, so see to
it that you are storing seed
in the proper manner.
FAMILY FOOD BUYING
Q. I save fat from deep
frying and reuse it later. How
ever, 1 wonder if this practice
is safe.
A. There is nothing wrong
with reusing fats. The practi
cal heating life of fat is be
tween ten and twenty hours.
After that, certain chemical
changes occur but there is still
no safety hazard. It is recom
mended, however, that you keep
up the volume of fat. Add some
fresh fat each time you use the
stored fat. When the fat be
gins to foam or change color
drastically, discard it.
Q. Is sour cream less fat
tening than sweet cream?
A. No. They are identical
in caloric count.
Q. Does toasted bread have
the same number of calories
as untasted bread?
A. Yes. The calories are
in the bread. Toasing-simply
dries and browns the bread.
The water which is removed
contains no calories.
Q. Has the sale of freezer
foods increased in the last five
years?
A. Yes, but 1 do not have the
amount of sales from frozen
foods for the last five years.
However, information shows
that the sale of meat, poultry,
and commercially frozen foods
doubled between 1954 and 1959
—up to a total of $550 million.
In addition, the frozen foods
industry sold $160 million worth
of home freezers and provided
$118 million in customer ser
vice and $17 million in mis
cellaneous products and ser
vices in 1959.
Q. Is peanut butter one of the
commodities used in the Na
tional School Lunch Program?
A. Yes. The amount of pea
nut butter distributed to schools
has increased from six million
pounds a year. Although the
brown bag with the peanut
butter-jelly sandwich has been
replaced by the hot school lunch,

FEED GRAIN, WHEAT DI
VERTED ACRES OPENED TO
LIVESTOCK
Beginning November 1, most
of the acreage diverted under
the 1962 feed grain and wheat
programs will be released from
program restrictions on graz
ing, Mr. H. A. Sealy, Chair
man, Agricultural Stabilization
peanut butter, a childhood fa
vorite, is still available to boys
and girls.
Q. When visiting in Philadel
phia last month I ate a new pea
nut product, a peanut spread in
bar form with a jelly center.
Is this product available in this
section?
A. I don’t think the new
peanut spread is available in
this area at this time. A pro
duct such as you described has
been marketed in Albany, New
York and Philadelphia test mar
kets for some months. Reports
are that this peanut spread
has been accepted by nearly
every supermarket chain in the
test area. It is also predicted
that the manufacturer plans to
move to other marketing areas
at a rapid pace. This product
while you described uses No. 1
peanuts, a blend of Concord
grape jelly and jam (in the
square center of the bar), a
high-quality clover honey and
large added quantities of vita
mins A and D.
and Conservation County Com-
rniuee, has announced. The
authorization does not extend to
(1) diverted acreage which is
devoted to widelife food plots,
and (2) diverted acreage on
which grain or oilseed crops
have matured in 1962,
The Chairman explained that
the grazing restrictions are
being relaxed as part of the
general effort to keep provi
sions of farm programs in line
with practical farming opera
tions. Many farmers normally
salvage dropped corn ears and
other crop residue by turning
livestock onto harvested crop
land in the late fall. Since
the diverted acreage on many
farms is not fenced separately,
the program change will permit
these farmers to salvage this
feed without being put to un
reasonable work time and ex
pense for protective fencing.
According to Mr. Sealy, the
main objective of the ban against
livestock on diverted acres has
been to prevent grazing that
might partially offset the corn,
grain sorghum, and wheat ad
justment under diversion pro
grams. With killing frosts like
ly by November 1 over the main
grain-producing area, the ob
jective of the no-grazing ban
would be satisfactorily met by
that time. In addition, the im
portant period for protection
of the diverted acreages also
will have passed in most areas,
and there is small likelihood
that conservation cover would
be severly damaged by per
mitting livestock on this acre
age on or after November 1.
In the event of a Statewide
killing frost, the Chairman de
clared, approval may be obtain
ed for an earlier date for re
laxation of the no-grazing ban.
The worshipper of energy is
too physically energetic to see
that he cannot explore certain
higher fields until he is still.
