Prairie Hay Crop.

The prairie hay crop in the western
two-thirds of Kansas promises to be
heavier this year than for many years
past. Prairie hay properly cured and
taken care Of has a feeding value
greater than any other hay produced
in this section except alfalfa or clover.
Usually the grass is not cut as early
as 1t should be. Prairie grass should
be cut early to make the best feed.
The first Of August is none too early
to begin haying. Prairie hay is also.
rs a rule, not as well stacked rs it
should be. and the percentage of less
on account Of stacking is large. More
prairie hay is fed to horses in lie
cities Of the country than any oti,cs
hay. Each year the value Of hri.s,,t
early cut hay is increasing. l,o.r n.si.
RE hay is Of slow sale. This "a c...s
serves to demonstrate that the feeGiassa
value Of late cut and blaclseaed prai...n
hay is not so great. and feeders VIII
not pay as much money for 1t as for
the bright hay. Hundreds e acres
Of Kansas land are set aside for the
production Of native prairie Grass hay.
70 realize the greatest profits. either
for feeding or through sales, It should
b properly cared for.
