Advantage of Fall Calves.

From a bulletin issued by the Kansas
Experiment Station we CLEAN these facts
concerning the advantage of having cows
come in the fall. Cows should be bred
as soon as possible in order to have them
come in at the best season for maintain
ing the milk flow. The bulletin says
1.-The greatest yield is obtained from
COWS that calve in the fall, if proper
care, feed and shelter are provided dur
ing the winter The prices of butter
fat and butter are higher during the
winter, and with COWS fresh in the fall
or early winter this higher price comes
during the period of greatest yield
ga COW owned by the college gave the
following yields of butter fat in pounds
by months for ten months-2l.2, 81 9,
3l.2, 80 5, 32.9, 20, 1871, 1913, 1862
and 222 If this product had been
sold to one of the leading Kansas cream
cries at the prices paid last year, and
the COW had calved April LIST, the re-
turns would have been S44 80. while if
she had calved September LIST the same
product would have brought $40 IA
difference of 81 GA for a single COW.
A COW that calves in the early fall
while on grass is in the best condition
to make high yield when fresh. Good
feed and care through the winter will
maintain a good yield, and when the
COW is turned to pasture in the early
spring a fresh flow will be started that
will considerably increase the years
yield.
A COW that calves in the spring has
the best milk-producing feed at time
when she will do well with any good
ration. As the flow begins to slacken
the quality of the feed grows poorer
and flies and heat help TO cut it down
still lower In the fall. when the milk
begins to drop rapidly on account Of the
time from calving, the COW goes from
green pastures to dry feed-a change
that tends to reduce the yield and dry
up the flow entirely Winter dairying
avoids injury to flavor Of butter from
weeds in summer and fall pastures.
Cows, with fair surroundings, can be
made more comfortable in winter thar
in summer, and with fall calving viii
be dry when heat, flies and drought are
lowest.
Winter dairying furnishes profitable
employment for the farmer and his meI
at a saason of the year when without il
farm forces are either idle or work fol
low wages.
Another advantage of fall calving il
that the calves can be raised at season
when there is time to give to them tina
careful attention which is so great I
factor in calf raising by baud, wher
losses from heat, flies, diarrh@ and SOU
milk can be avoided, and when at wean
ing time the calves can go from milk t.
green pasture without check in growth

With the garden, as with the field
crops. a good rotation is best il the best
growth aud yield is to be received For
this reason, as well as for convenience
in working. it is best to plan out the
planting Of the garden before the season
for planting opens.
In order TO economZe space to the
best advantage, and at the same TIM
lessen the labor of cultivation as much
as possible, it is best to plant everything
10 long rows.
Then by little planning in planting
the different varieties and kinds it will
be possible to grow more and to keep
the ground occupied to better advan-
tage.
II there is any one crop that zhould
occupy the ground for two or three years
IN succession it is onions, largely on
account of the work Of cultivation
But when clean cultivation is given to
all of the garden this will not be neces-
sary OF all crops usually grown in
the garden the onion is rather the most
difficult TO keep clean, and II there IS a
spot in the garden that is free of weeds
aud grass generally it is the best place
to grow onions But even with this
crop it is not best to continue to grow
too continuously.
Another item in planting is to have
the crops arranged so as to keep the
ground occupied as fully as possible
through the growing season, By little
care in this respect two crops may in a
majority Of cases be grown while in
some even three may be secured. But
if the most is made out Of the garden
in this way it is essential that one crop
should follow another as closely as pos
slble.
The advantage in planning ahead is
hat when favorable time for planting
comes the work can be pushed along to
n much better advantage than if it must
he begun with no settled plan in view.
Make the garden supply plenty of
fresh vegetables all through the grow
,ng season with a sufficient surplus to
store away for winter.

Sowing Glover and Grass.

The conditions Of sowing clover and
grass seed vary so much that there will
be always q considerable difference of
opinion as to the best time for sowing.
Whether sown alone or in connection
with winter wheat many prefer to SOW
in the fall, others prefer to SOW IN the
spring, while large class claims to Sc
cure the best results by seeding with
oats But nearly all will agree that with
spring seeding, at least earliness is quite
an item, whether sown alone. on win
ter wheat or with oats, every advantage
should be taken to SOW at the very first
opportunity.
While it is an exceptional case when
it can be considered advisable to SOW
either grass or clover when the ground
is very wet or when it is very rough or
cloddy. With both, the seeds are small
and good even stand is only possible
with the soil in fairly good filth at
the time of sowing the seed. At the
same time, in order to get the seeding
done early, it is quite an item to have
everything in readiness so that as soon
as the conditions are favorable the work
may be pushed along as rapidly as pos
sible. By sowing early the plants have
a much better opportunity to get we'll
established before hot, dry weather sets
in. One advantage in sowing on winter
wheat is that in a majority Of cases the
work can be done earlier than is usually
possible when to be sown with oats.
When to be sown with oats, as rule
the oats are sown first and then the
grass and clover, and in many cases it
is best to get everything in readiness so
that the FIRST opportunity for seeding
may be utilized.
