Fodder.
Written for the Nebraska Farmer

Written for the Nebraska Farmer.
Mr.. EDIRoR:-The pressure of lar ge
numbers of cattle at the beginning of
winter and the apparent short supply of
fodder suggests the prOpriesy of an arti-
Gle on fodder.
With the rapid increase of cattle and
hogs, the question, what shall we food
during winter, becomes an important one.
Hungarian grass seems to have been
abandoned by common consent, and it
will not do to depend too much upon prai-
RE hay. ri. BIZ a-s4 traa
The upland grass is mostly too short
for profitable moving and in dry weather
it is often difficult to find good moving
on the bottom; and as cattle increase un-
less they are restrained they will thin
out the best spots so as to make moving
a slow business.
The experiment has not yet been sufi-
GENTLY made with the cultivated grasses,
but the probability is that our soils are as
yet mostly toe light 10 succeed well.
The corn crop in some form seems
to promise better than any thing else to
supply the lack. Here we can have a
choice. we can cut up and shock all our
corn early while the fodder is yet good
and thus save the stalks, or we can sow
corn.
To the first there are some serious OBJ
jections. One is if we take off all our
stalks year after year, we shall soon
make eur soil poor.
l know there are many that scout the
idea of exhausting our rich prairie lands
and the majority farm with a reckless
ness which they will rue by and BY
Our richest lands yield the best crops
and we have not much land in its natural
state equal in its productiveness to the
highly cultivated lands of the East.
These facts show the Importance of i'm
proving the condition of our lands from
the beginning.
To enrich our large fields by hauling
manure from the yard seems almost inn
possible. The best way is to pillow in a
fall crop of stalks and haul the manur
upon a few acres hat we sow for fodder
The stalks are somewhat in the way in
blowing and c~ultivating the corn but the
advantage TO the land ard the crop will
more than pay for the trouble.
Another objection TO depending upon
stalks for fodder is this before we can
get the corr cured fit for the crib and
then husked. cattle usually become troub-
lesome and destroy more or less of the
fodder when it is too late to repair the
mischief, while sowed corn may be cut
cured, and stacked before the frost spoils
the pasture.

To this time of sowing there are two OBJ
i~ectiOns ; one is, there is more liability Of
failure by drouth, and the other is, it
