P. Snow, secretary-treasurer of the Win ston-Salem Production Credit As 'sociation. At the beginning of the year, the nation had in pros pect a production of 122 billion pounds of milk, Mr. Snow stated. i This was estimated to be 7 bil lion pounds short of the amount I we should have to meet our civil i ian, military and lend lease ne?ds. i There has been some shifting of dairy herds because of the draft l and labor shortage, and unfor i tunately in the process some dairy cows have gon cto slaugh ter. The War Food Adminirtva , tion had been urging farmers, particularly the small operators, tn aid in the situation by i::,vu;- ! ing tlieii milk proJjftion. Tilt | respoi ic has be n j.-,o > ! but the I world still needs more milk I Tiu nation's milk supply issuai i ly roaches its p"uk aS'Ut Die middle of June when cows are on lull pasture. Farmers shemid reo -1 ognize this situation a::l .make i • plans to combat the usual slumo 'which takes place as pastures dry up and as supplies of supplemei'- i • tary feeds decline. Temporary pasture crops, to lengthen the • grazing season, and an abundant j supply of good hay and silagp, will be invaluable to the war ef fort in holding the milk produc- I tion in late summer and winter, 1 according to Mr. Snow. | 5 ! The War Food Administration | ' and the Dairy Industry Commi. tee suggest the following 8-point >' piogram for dairymen to en. b\ " 'them to meet the war needs ni • the nation: ill Provido abundant pasture • Gjtjw temporary crops to len„tli en the grazing season. >2) Provide plenty ol gooi 'hay— at least 400 to 500 pound, l • depending upon the size of th " I cow. I (3) Provide abundant silage— at least 2 1-2 tens per cow l Trench silos may be used wher permanent silos arc not available k (4) Condition cows for freshen ing. Eight weeks rest leads t greater milk production.
