Timely ' Farrn Tips. Wheat Needs Nitrogen in Spring Unless . you have plowed under .clover sod or planned to use man- ure on the field, your wheat will be needing nitrogen where'• growth starts next spring, points• out 0. A. C. soils researcher B. C. Mat- thews. If it's unusually hard to get on. the field before early April in the spring, then apply that ex- tra nitrogen now anytime before the snow gets too deep. If there is danger of runoff, apply before the ground freezes. • "Cattle -Down" Corn Your loss in thefield from corn pieking can runas high...,a 12 per cent, say Ontario Department. of Agriculture corn' scientists.

Keep Your Calf' Crop Healthy • It's true that calves born. in 'the barn "get more attention than those horn on pasture. But the natural habits are changed when : calves are put on twice -a -day routine pail feeding. The "result: 'stomach up= set, says the Ontario Veterinary college's extensign, veterinarian Dr, .Howard Neely, Calves normally , drink ~slowly When nursing a •cow...But pail -fed calves often gulp milk hungrily after, the. long, wait; between feed- ings. Sometimes they even inhale milk into their ltwgs. "Nipple pails are a big help in solving this problem," stays Neely. "Regular feeding is important: And It's best feed the same amount' pf milk both night and morning. Keep the milk temperature•- the. same too." Neely points out that one ,of the common� causes of calf scoots is over -feeding. What about colostrum?. The first milk notonly contains a lot of the essential vitamins -and minerals, but also antibodies which. help tight early ealfhood diseases, "The calf • is born with very few antibodies and, if colostrum is not fed, the calf is likely to pick up common infections," states • Neely. Losses are highest in calves that don't get `colostrum. -.
