GRASS AND THE DAIRY.
The Lesson Of This Year Of Abundant
Pasturage.

This season has been great one
for grass, and the dairy. The pastures
have been been good and the returns
from the pastures have been large.
The prices Of farm produce have kept
up in spite Of the large supply of raw
material. and the farmer producing
milk and butter has not experienced
the low prices Of some former years.
This time Of pasturage abundance
was not one that could have been fore
seen and therefore no farmers
have been able TO greatly In
crease the number of their cows to
enable them TO make the most OF the
grass crop in the pastures Just
when they wanted to buy, other farm
ers also wanted to buy, with no one
willing to sell This is an illustration
Of the truth that has been previously
noted in this paper, that dairy COW
can be produced only after a lapse OF
years.
Therefore, declares the Kansas
Farmer, the production of hrst-class
dairy cows should go on, in all years,
when there are good pastures and
when there are poor pastures. The
farmer can anticipate the coming Of
the flush years, but in no other way
can ne be ready for them when they
do come That they DO come along
about so often Is well-demonstrated
fact Fortunate are the men that this
year have all the cows they need to
help them harvest their pasture
grasses.

TREES ON SANDY LAND.
A Suggestion for the Profitable Use
Of Barren Ground.

A great many farmers who have
strips of sandy land that is apparently
worthless will do well to set trees
there. They will bring returns. or at
least improve the value of the land.
In great many cases the presence
of these few sandy acres denotes the
fact that water Is present under the
surface and In most cases one has
but to dig a few feet to strike It in
a measure that alone prevents the
raising Of any crop which requires a
greater percentage OF sand than earth.
Land of this nature is indeed hard to
use when II comes TO making money
out of 1t. II has been suggested that
trees be planted on this land, and,
according to a correspondent, this has
been done with more or less success
on his sandy land.
II trees are to be planted on the
land 1t Is best to set out young cot
tonwood trees, interspersing them
with Russian mulberry and catalpa,
perhaps ash, but this is rather expert
mental In some cases, depending
greatly upon local conditions. 1t is
well to set the cottonwoods four by
four feet and put in willow cuttings
on the north and west sides to prevent
blowing.
Trees thus planted will In time make
good fence post timber or in 20 years
be excellent saw timber. bring
ing returns which will far exceed that
Of any crop that may be raised on
ouch land.
