Food Value of Clover Hay,

Farmers. as rule. do not appreciate
the full value of clover as hay. Tim
othy hay costs more in the market than
does clover, which has led many farm
ers 10 believe that timothy has a nigh
er nutritive value than clover hay
They assume that as the city liveryman
or horse oSer buy timothy in prefer
judges of the feeding value of hay than
they are themselves.
Nearly all the hay sold in the city
market is sold to horse owners whose
animals are used for light driving or
light work In such cases timothy is
to he preferred not that il contains a
higher nutritiye value but for the rea-
son that it carries less dust with it,.
and there is less danger of the animals
eating too much of it. 1t Is also less
risky in the matter Of the heaves.
Glover can be easily grown. and Yet
how few barns are filled with it. Too
many cattle are fattened on corn and
other hay-some add cotton-seed meal,
trates to the ration. all Of which pro-
duces good results. but the rule on the
farm should be that as much nitrog-
enous feed as it is possible TO
grow should he produced. and thus
save the expense of large purchases of
oil meal
Glover hay is an excellent roughage
To be fed fattening cattle in large guam
titles. Some feeders begin the feeding
period with two pounds Of clover hay
to every pound of corn. The amount
OF hay is reduced gradually. and The
corn increased until toward the latter
part of the feeding period. when three
pounds OF corn are fed to every pound
OF clover hay. Feeding clover hay to
that extent, it is hardly necessary TO
| give oil meal. except during the last
four weeks of the feeding period.
Dairy cows also thrive on clover
hay. and corn and clover makes a very
good ration for them. \ good. thrifty
cow will eat % pounds of clover hay
and 6 pounds of corn daily. Such a
ration would have a nutritive ratio Of
IL. which is narrow enough for milk
| production.
But two or three pounds OF bran and
| four or FIVE pounds of corn. together
with all the clover hay COW will eat
| is still better ration. Where corn
fodder or other hay is substituted for
clover hay, more heterogeneous cOncen
trates and less corn must be fed

In no year since the development Of
Western Canada began has spring
brought n brighter outlook than it
brings this year. In no preceding
spring has there been greater assur-
ance of advancing development and
prosperity. The movement of immigra-
ton has already assumed large proper
tons, and is as desirable in character
as it is satisfactory In volume; from
across the Atlantic sturdy, industri-
Gus and thrifty newcomers are arriy-
ing in large numbers, homeseekers
from Ontario and the other older
stream, and from across the interna-
tional boundary a movement is already
in full flow which, it is confidently
predicted, will beat the records of all
previous years; special settlers trains
are crossing the line, loaded with eff,
fects, actual material wealth being
thus brought into the country at the
rate of millions of dollars worth
monthly.
The movement is so unprecedently
large that extra Dominion Immigra-
ton officials have had to be provided
at both North Portal and at Emerson,
and it is estimated that the total num-
Der of new settlers from the United
States this year will be 10000 at least
and may run well up toward 100000
Last years total of new settlers from
the South was 53,723: thus the area
that will be placed in wheat and other
grains this year will greatly exceed
that of last year. Settlers are making
extraordinary efforts to get on their
lands and begin seeding operations
The price of wheat now, away above
the dollar mark, is incentive enough
and when one has in view the splen
did results that the past few years
have shown, it is not to be wondered
at that the present will be the banner
