VALUE OF RAPE.
sOSVn In July For Late Sheep Feed
1nE-Thrives In the North.

sOSvn In July For Late sheep Feed
1nE-Thrives In the North.
Not all sheep raisers appreciate the
immense value of rape. This plant
thrives especially well in northern lat
itudes and is one of the most valuable
forage crops to be grown In New Eng
land. The soil best adapted is a rich
one, well supplied with humus and veg
etable matter. The plant does especial
ly we'll on muck or old pasture lands.
Lighter soils are inclined to give q
dwarfed plant and rather unsatisfac-
tory crop. Rich clay loans give ex-
cellent results. 1t is important that
the ground be put in good filth before
planting.
For the very early crop rape should
be sown as early in spring as the
ground can be worked, but for fall
pasturing July l is good date to put
In the seed. The crop natures for feed
ing in about two months from time of
planting. The work of the experiment
stations indicates that rather better re-
suits may be expected when the seed
is sown in drills thirty inches apart at
the rate of two pounds to the acre.
Rape is ideal feed for sheep and hogs,
and even dairy cows do fairly well on
1t. Conservative estimates have 1t that
an acre of rape will furnish about two
months pasture for twenty lambs
which are being fed a small grain ra-
ton In addition. Sheep should be OBJ
uarvaH rlNcolu into
rape or bloating may occur. Some OF
the more forehanded of our New Eng
land farmers are thoroughly conversant
with the advantages offered by rape as
a forage crop. The brief remarks or
q Massachusetts farmer given herewith
are of interest:
"I have never fed sheep in summer
except on grass, as have the best OF
natural pastures. However, while In
Ontario last fall l saw hundreds of
sheep feeding on rape, which was high
ly recommended by breeders as a crop
either for soiling or for feeding of.
The seed Is sown after wheat or oats
or even corn at the last hoeing. Care
is required In getting sheep accustom-
ed to 1t, AS they are liable to scours
IL fed too heavily at first. A. W..
Smith, winner Of the lions share of
prizes In the Leicester classes at st.
Louis and Portland exhibitions, told
me that cabbages are the safest and
best green fall feed for show sheep
and that he always provides supply
for his show sheep at no matter what
cost."-New England Homestead.

STACKING WHEAT.
An Ohio Man Tells How to Do a Good
JOb-PreRers the Rick.

An Ohio Man Tells How to Do q Good
JOb-Prefers the Rick.
Here every one stacks wheat with
in a week or ten days after cutting.
It saves the grain in case of wet
weather, allows the owner to thrash
just when he pleases and renders him
independent of some poor, cheap rig
of a thrasher that comes around
knocking out crop here and there,
writes an Ohioan to Farm and Ranch.
l have been stacking wheat more
than thirty years and never had q
stack to take water yet. We prefer
the long rick to the round stack and
make our ricks eighteen to twenty feet
long and nine to twelve feet wide. II
you have no old rails or plank for q
bottom begin by setting up a long
shock, widening and lengthening until
the sheaves lie nearly fat, heads up.
Use a short handled fork to place the
sheaves and stand up. Never get
down on your knees, hut stand straight
up, directing the pitcher to throw the
sheaves toward the center of the stack
and In front Of you, so you can easily
reach them.
Keep the stack fairly level until you
get as high as a mans head; then keep
the middle full and solid, placing the
two outside courses rather loosely. In
fact, 1t is best to keep the middle
solid from the very start, and remem-
ber that you are not to get any farther
out than the heads of the second course
from the outside, as you may slip your
stack. An expert stacker can work
farther out than beginner, but IL
you keep well In you can build just as
good a stack and be In no danger Of
slipping the stack, which Is a rather
serious matter. Draw in your stack
slowly the first few rounds, and then
you will naturally draw In faster from
the fact that your stack gets smaller
and your middle higher
Any man who can put on good load
of grain can build good stack If he
will remember to keep his middle full
and solid and keep off the outside
courses. One of my sons was good
stacker at nineteen years of age and at
twenty put 525 shocks into stack In
twelve hours with only one team haul
ing. Those 525 shocks made 430 bush.
els of wheat, so 1t will be seen that
stacking Is not such a big job after all.
