Just cause someone asks the question in adulthood versus during their raisin', doesn't make the question any different. It still needs an answer. If someone gave you a hard time for asking it in adulthood, it just shows their insecurities by needing to make themselves feel bigger in their own mind.

Not sure about every county but I believe (for this state of WA anyways) that their are extension's accross the whole state out of my school to help educate producers on the latest and greates techniques being studied by the school, not sure if its only from the land grant schools or not.
 
I think there is one in every county in Illinois.. Well, maybe not Cook ;-)

Here is Monroe Counties office.. Don't know if they do Ag there or not but they can point you in the right direction

And maybe the guy that knows just wants to varify, and the guy that does't want to answer is just to good to bother with such triva.

A county extension office is usually connected with the State University, and can provide guidance on weed control, best grasses and/or crops for that specific area, is usually also able to provide information about 4-H, probably weed control (although I'm not 100% certain on that), weather conditions and yearly rainfall if you're new to the area, plus a host of other things as well. Most counties have one, and you can find it by looking in your telephone book. If memory serves (I don't have a phone book handy to check), its listed in the white pages under government, and the county name.

Flushing typically means the removal of eggs from a female. Those eggs can be fertilized or non-fertilized, depending on their intended usage. Usually some type of fertility hormone is involved to cause the female to release multiple eggs prior to flushing, but not always.

As far as the best types of hay, that is going to depend on your goals, area, what is available, and what else you're feeding. As far as pure protein is concerned, I think you would have a hard time beating alfalfa - but, I could be wrong on that.
 
Don't know about where you live but in Texas most rural county's have extension offices. They are not necessarily associated with universities although Texas A&M is probably the premier source for all things agricultural. They have an extensive ag research program and the information derived from those programs is free on the web.
 
Earl, I believe all county extension offices are thru A&M. And, I think all Texas counties have extension offices, at least that is what I am remembering from working at a county extension office. I know the Extension agents were paid thru A&M, but the admin. staff was paid by the county.

All Texas Extention Offices have a website, that is ran thru Texas A&M.

If someone needs to call an Extention office, most likely all you'd hafta do is look in your local phone book under their County office list for Extention Agent.
