STATE OF NEW YORK DEPARTMENT OF FARMS & MARKETS ALBANY, N. Y.


December 22, 1921.


To the Board of Supervisors of Putnam County,


Kent Cliffs, N. Y.


Attention : Edmund D. Foshay, Clerk.


Gentlemen :


In accordance with the duties imposed upon me by Section 12, Article A, of the Agricultural law, I have caused to be inspected the Almshouse farm of your County. This inspection was made on December 15, 1921.


As a result of this inspection and a study of the facts covering the farm land connected with your Almshouse farm, I wish to make the following report and recommendations :


I find a 5-year rotation practised on this farm and would recommend that you use at least one ton ground limestone per acre when seeding down, and 16% acid phosphate on the grain crop.


It would appear that a larger dairy herd would be a desirable change in your farm management, and I would recommend that a silo be built for more efficient management of the dairy end. I would recommend the weighing of each cow's milk daily and keeping records of same; also the home mixing of the dairy rations. Am sending literature and blanks upon these subjects.


I think it would be advisable to keep some brood sows on this farm, raising the pigs rather than buying them, and that the swine be pastured on sowed crops such as rye, peas and oats or clover.


Tools and implements were well cared for and housed, and the farm stock show commendable care.


This report, together with my recommendations, is forwarded to you at this time in order that it may receive your attention and consideration at the present session of your Board of Supervisors.


Yours very truly, BERNE A. PYRKE,


Commissioner of Farms and Markets.
