In our last article we gave you a full report of the first few days of our trip to Wisconsin to study the Dairy and Livestock farming and marketing operations in that area. Just a few of the things we saw the last part of the trip we thought might be of interest to you. Feeder Pig Co-operative The Wisconsin Feeder Pig Mar keting Cooperative at Francis Creek, Wisconsin was one of the most impressive operations we visited on our entire trip. This going concern boasts some 8,000 members who keep an average of 8 sows each. Pigs produced on these farms are marketed by the cooperative on a grade and weight basis throughout the entire mid west as well as some other areas of the country. The manager, Nor- val Douvak told us they expect to market over half-million feeder pigs this year. A wonderful op portunity, we thought for a simi lar though smaller operation in Newberry county. Many small far mers in our area could well keep a few sows and by following good breeding and management prac tices could produce good quality feeder pigs for market. This could well be a new profit opportunity for our area. Dairy Farm Operations Now let us tell you a bit about two of the interesting dairy farm operations we saw. At Green Bay, Wisconsin, we saw the Wisconsin State Reformatory herds, per haps the top Holstein herd in the entire state. Bob McDonald, the herdsman, told us that their 1962 herd average on 102 cows was 14,- 383 pounds of milk and 537 pounds of fat. Now listen what makes this herd produce so well. Corn silage and crimped hay is fed year round. Grain is fed sparingly at the rate of about 1 pound to 4 pounds of milk. Hintz Brothers Dairy Farm This dairy farm is operated by four brothers who have found they can obtain greater efficiency by pooling their machinery, labor and herds and operate as one unit. This in reality is four farms op erated as one with 900 total acres and 600 crop acres. There are 250 acres of alfalfa, 125 acres of corn, about 65 acres of oats and a small amount of pasture. The - herd numbers 250 milking cows milked in a 16-stall heringbone milking parlor. Loose housing is used with a 265 foot loose housing unit. Ten silos with a storage capacity of 2,750 tons provides year ’round silage feeding. The herd is 90 per cent artificially bred. One could quickly tell this was not a show place, but a good, sound, effic iently managed operation. Yes, Wisconsin is indeed 11; e Dairyland of America. But this does not mean we want to be ex actly like them in all aspects of dairy farming. As we said last week, their one big trouble is a low milk price. Wisconsin milk prices are dominated by the Chi cago market. Perhaps if we are wise, we will keep South Carolina milk in superior quality and con tinue to have those merketing practices that will result in a fair price to both the consumer and producer. It’s good to go and look, but always good to be back home again in Newberry county, South Carolina! Make Profit—Fight Cotton Insects. Cotton farmers, don’t give up the fight! As you know our cotton crop is about 2 weeks late this year. In addition fast growth due to 2 weeks of rain during June caused not much of a bottom crop to set. Therefore, we’ve got to protect the middle and top crop if we expect to make good yields of cotton this year. But it can be done! Continue insecticide application on at least a 5 day schedule. Some evidence of migration has already been noted in the county. When numerous wee\ils can be found in the blooms each morning, change to a 3-day schedule. All cotton we have checked can still be gone over with tractor equipment. Un less cotton has been blown over by wind, continue to hit those weevils on a regular schedule. A few more dollars spent for boll weevil control now will pay rich dividends. Don’t stop—pour it on! Silage Making. Practically every dairy farmer is busy these days filling silos. This we like to see since good sil age has proven a milk booster on most of our dairy farms. The only trouble is, most folks only have about half enough silo space. So if you’ve got some extra corn or sorghum coming on, you want to consider a trench silo. Most who have them like them. They can be a good low-cost way of storing additional winter feed. Those who are using trench silos are reminded to use a plastic cover to make the silo air tight so as to keep the silage at the} highest possible quality. County Issues Building Permits Under a recent lew passed by the South Carolina General As sembly, persons building or repair ing in the county will have to ob tain a permit from the county.
