Livestock Surgery Safeguards Advised With more and more livestock surgery being done on the farm, the American Foundation of Ani mal Health today cautioned that every possible safeguard needs to be taken il such operations are to be successful. Animals have great recupera tive powers, but they still need much the same care and attention as human beings, during, and fol lowing surgery, the Foundation said. “The longer an animal is sick, the poorer surgical risk it be comes. Prompt'examination by a veterinarian will reveal whether there is a need for su: gery, and if this is done early enough the surgery may be performed while the animal has the greatest a mount of strength and resis tance,” the Foundation report sta ted. Farmers should provide clean and sanitary quarters for the ope ration, and they should be mode rately warm and free of drafts. The quarters should be prepared according to instructions from the veterinarian, who will also list post-operative care recommenda tions The farmer should see to it that the animal is clean and com fortable, both before and after the surgery. Livestock owners should be a lert for signs of complications fol lowing surgery, reporting the pro gress of the patient, or any un favorable signs to the veterinary surgeon immediately. The Foundation added that ad vanced techniques are taking more risks out of farm animal surgery, and new and improved antibotics and drugs also are pro ving very helpful. _ Don’tFail To Register AT WARD’S You May Win This 15 Cu.

Feed-Short Farmer Should Decide Need If you’re a dairyman without enough feed to make it until spring grazing, what are you go ing to buy? Marvin E- Senger, extension dairy specialist at State College, says that the first step is to de cide what you need, carbohyd rates or protein. Then buy the cheapest source of total digesti bly nutrients (TDN) or digestible protein. If you ned carbohydrates, corn is the best buy with milo next, according to the chart on prices received by farmers as of Decem ber 15, 1955. Senger says that good peanut vine hay is a good buy. However, peanut hay varies in quality considerably and the farmer shouldn’t buy it without seeting it first. Cottonseed meal is a good buy for the farmer need ing protein. Senger says the farmer should supplement his home grown feeds with the best buys to round out his ration and make his feed go farther at an economical cost A simple grain mixture of 600 pounds of corn and cob meal, 100 WHEN YOU WANT THE BEST ASK YOUR GROCER FOR...

CAROLINA DAIRY Phone 8031—Shelby Gardeners in Eastern and Pied mont North Carolina should be gin to think about planting their Irish potatoes- The land should be prepared as soon as possible but planting n?ay be delayed until in March without any appreciable loss in earliness. In the Mountain areas planting may be delayed until April. Do not plant potatoes in poorly drained areas or the seed pieces may not rot in the ^pounds of ground oats, and 300 pounds of cottonseed meal costs $2 15 per 100 pounds plus grind ing. Add 10 pounds of salt and 20 pounds of steamed bonemeal and you have a mixture, contain ing 17 per cent total protein, sui table for feeding with corn silage and poor legume hay or low pro tein grass hay. With better hay, less protein is needed. ground. The Irish potato requires heavy fertilization as well as good soil in order to make large yields. At least one gallon of an 8-8-8 ferti lizer mixture should be used per 100 sq. ft. of row, thoroughly mixed in the row soil about a week before planting time- In home gardens and small plant ings, potatoes are usually planted by hand, and if the fertilizer is applied in the furrow at planting time there is danger th&t it will come into contact with the seed piece and damage it Do not apply lime to potato soils. Lime and also fresh stable manure will promote the growth of potato scab disease if present in the soil or on the seed. Irish Cobbler is still one of the most popular white potato varie ties for home gardens. Canso, a Canadian introduction, is resis tant to late blight and is replac ing Irish Cobbler to some extent in the Eastern areas. Sebago and Essex are good but are later than Cobbler. For those who prefer red potatoes the Triumph (Red Bliss) and LaSoda varieties are probably best- In the mountain areas we would recommend Boone, Kennebec and Essex. These are all resistant to late blight disease. It is best to use certified seed if obtainable. Certification is a guarantee that the seed pota toes are practically free from the most serious diseases. Seed pieces should be c;ut so that they ave rage from lbi to 1% ounces In weight and must contain at least one good eye. Smaller seed pieces will give lower yields. Space the rows three feet apart and the seed pieces 10 to 12 inches apart on the row- The usual planting depth Is about four inches. Contrary to a common idea, there is no advan tage in turning all the eyes up fit planting the seed pieces.

And you get that in a 1956 Buick in plenty — from big 322-cubic-inch V8 engines that hit new highs in horse power and compression. But the power under the hood must be carried to the rear driving wheels in the form of twisting force on the drive shaft. That’s torque — the end-product of your transmission. And the higher the torque build-up — the greater the “torque multiplication” in starting and accelerating—the better the getaway and response. So if you want to feel take-off that leaves your breath behind you, come try a '56 Buick with Variable Pitch Dynaflow.* For in this airplane-principled transmission, Buick engi neers raised the ceiling on torque to give you the best getaway yet. They did it with something they call “double regeneration”— a new way to make flowing oil add to its own velocity. And when you use the full torque of a Buick beauty like the one pictured above, you're using the highest torque multiplication to be had in any standard-production American automobile today. Come see for yourself what that means in new thrills and new safety. , You’ll find brilliant new getaway response in the first inch of pedal travel—plus greater gas mileage to boot. You’ll find an electrifying new safety-surge of fuH-power acceleration when you floor the pedal and switch the pitch. And you’ll find this spectacular performance blended into the smoothest-traveling, the sweetest-riding, the highest-powered and the easiest-handling Buicks yet built. Drop in on us this week—today, if you can—and judge things firsthand. *New Advanced Variable Pitch Dynaflow is the only Dyrutflow Buick builds today.
