some people:
First.-Cet you some wire and fence
the ground that has grass on 1t and put

out. then break the ground well; then

turn cattle back in the fall after corn
is pulled: then do the Same next year,

HAY AND PASTURE,
AA,kanses Experience with Cowpeae.
Sorghum and Various Grasscs.

ANkannes Experience with Covpeae,
Sorghum and Various Grasscs.
A bulletin Of tho Arkansas station
gives sonoS information about hay and
pasture plants for that state:
The most desirable and satisfactory
hay plant for summer growing, consid-
ercd from the standpoint Of food pro-
duccd and fertilizer added to the soil,
is the cowpea, the Whippcorwill and
Wonderful varieties being preferred.
AS a crop for winter growing for
hay, soil protection and soil improve
mcnt hairy vctch (Vici0 villosn has
proved most satisfactory. followed In
order by crimson clover and red clo-
yer. Corn and sorghum are consid-
cred the best forage crops for tho
state.
Sorghum is preferred for summer
feeding for hogs and dairy cows. Cut
ting may be begun as soon as the
stalks begin to head out.
Hogs like sorghum best when tho
stalk Is sweet and the grain In the
milk stage. In order to preserve the
sorghum In this state It Is recommend
ed to pile the stalks In large piles and
cover with straw. Early Amber Is the
variety usually grown.
The results Of seven years tests Mt
the station indicate that the grasses
best adapted to the soils and climate
of the state are orchard grass, Bermu-
da grass and hairy vetch for permanent
meadows and bermuda grass and hairy
vetch for permanent pastures.
The prejudice against Bermuda grass
held by many farmers because of Its
weedlile tendencies Is considered un-
founded since by proper methods Of
rotation and cultivation the grass Ia
easily controlled.
Alfalfa Is considered n valuable plant
for permanent meadows and pastures
| where both surface and subsoil are
we'll drained. Considerable care Is re-
quired In getting 1t started. but after
being once started 1t is permanent.
