! Pa0FIrAs4) PASTURE
RAPE REcomsfrbED BY MR..
MufoRO
Professor Of nimaI iiusbandry
Gives Results Of Exper-
sr fasuts

There is no CROP grown on the farm
that produces such large amount OF
valuable pasture in so short time as
Rape. This plant comes to US from En-
gland where its use has been recognized
for many years. When young and
small it resembles somewhat the cab
bage and turnip. 1t differs from these
in having thickened stem and thick
succulent leaves.
The practical experiments in feeding
this most valuable forage plant in this
country indicate that one acre Of rape is
more valuable for feeding sheep or hogs
than one acre Of clover, blue grass, tina
othy or any other common pasture
plant. Some experiments have even
indicated that rape may rival alfalfa it..
self as past ure for hogs.
For feeding wethers and lambs rape
has been used extensively at the Ontar-
10 Agricultural College, Wisconsin,
Michigan and Missouri. At these Sta
tions rape pasture produced from 300
to 500 pounds OF mutton per acre. At s
cents pound for mutscn this would
give rape pasture value Of $500 to
$500 per acre. The results from graz.
ing hogs on rape are even more fayora.
BILE in some respects to this plant than
the above.
At the Alabama Station one acre OF
rape produced 512 lbs pork, which at
cents pound, would be worth $3.50.
At the Wisconsin Station rape compar.
ed with clover pasture showed pei
cent advantage for rape in the amount
Of grain per 100 pounds Of gain.
In every experiment gram has been
fed with the pasture. Rape is not y
successful pasture for hogs when grazed
alone, without grain.
Rape has two advantages which may
or may not prove serious according te
to the methods OF handling. 1t some
times causes blost in sheep and Cattle
but is no more dangerous in this res
psct than . rank growth ofgreen clover
Another objection to pasturing hogs on
rape is that tho hogs, particularly whit
hogs, blister badly in the summer 10 tn,
hot sun. The latter difficulty has onl!
been reported 10 a very few cases anc
can probably be easily prevented b.
turning hogs on rape only after the dew
has dried of Of the plants.
Rape is planted either in rows or SOW
broadcast; the latter method is mos
common. 1t is important that rape b
sown in Missouri at tho earliest date al
which the ground can be prepared. !
