Farmland Included In Centerville Law - In Centerville CENTERVILLE a farmer with acreage in an agricultural zone would have to declare a subdivision and meet most requirements of a normal subdivision if he deeded as little of his property as one-haacre to a son or daughter. This quirk in a city ordinance which says a piece of property divided into a few as two lots constitutes a subdivision has caused some concern among City Council members. The council last week approved an amendment to its' zoning ordinance which would simplify the process of splitting one lot or piece of property into two lots, but leaves the basic ordinance the same. Councilman Dale Ford, who owns a farm in the city, pointed out that declaring farm property a subdivision when one lot is broken off might mean the property would be taxed differently and could cause a substantial jump in taxes due from the owner. I think a law is too restrictive when a man cant give his children part of his property without subdividing the whole farm," Ford said. KEVIN HILL inspected to be sure it has all been passed.

FOR YOUR NEW FOAL As early spring approaches it becomes a time of great anticipation for many horse owners as they look forward to the arrival of a newborn foal. While mother nature takes care of most of the details there are some important steps owners must attend to to ensure the delivery of a live and healthy foal. Prenatal care is important with horses as well as with humans. The mare should be fed to maintain her normal body weight, increasing caloric intake only slightly during the last few months of gestation. It is important that the mare not be overfed so that a more difficult delivery is avoided. Exercise is an important factor in keeping weight down and muscle tone up. Mares kept in box stalls should be exercised at least once a day while pastured mares usually exercise themselves adequately. There is no harm in taking short rides on your mare until the last two months of pregnancy. Owners should be certain that their mares have been adequately vaccinated for equine encephalitis (brain fever) and tetanus so that these antibodies will be present in the mares first milk or colostrum. Periodic boosters of rhinopneumonitis vaccine should be given to help avoid this viral infection which often causes abortion. 0 Mares should be days before foaling to help provide a environment for the foal. parasite-fre- e The timing of these vaccinations and should be coordinated through your veterinarian.
