Rape Forage For HOES

By c. A. Wilson, Colombia. Mo.
Rape has been known to the Euro.
peans for many years and has been
used extensively by them, especially
by the people of Holland, but it
has not come into very general use in
this country. 1t belongs to the Bros
slcas and is very closely related to
the turnip, rutabaga, kohl rabi and
cabbage, and indeed, resembles them
very mnch. To the initiated it
might very easily be mistaken for the
rutabaga, but closer examination
would reveal that the root is fbrous
and woody instead of Aeshy and
succulent. Its value as a forage
crop then comes from the abundance
of quick growing, succulent leaves
that are produced by each plant
yielding under favorable conditions
from ten to thirty tons per acre.
Rape has not come into general
use in this country, perhaps because
Of the fact that it, like its family rel.
atives, the turnip, cabbage and kohl
rabi, requires rich soil with plenty
of humus or vegetable mold. For
the best results it should be sown on
rich, moist, loamy soil. 1t will usual
" do we'll on any but light, sandy
soils or stiff clay, such soils being de.
fcieut in vegetable matter. ANY
soils that will produce good crops Of
vegetables will also give good yields
of rape
So long as there is plenty of mois.
ture rape is adapted as forage crop
for all parts of the growing season
For the latter part Of May and fol
June and July forage it should BIZ
sown in the spring as soon as the
danger from frost is over. The SAINT
general rules of culture that will ap
ply to cabbage and turnips will apply
to rape as well. Sow broadcast up
on a well-prepared seed bed, of til,

appar emit value, but that is all.
Mr.. Funk gives some interesting

Mr.. Funk gives some interesting
figures and f'cts in regard to an
experiment made with samples Of
corn procured at the National Corn
Exposition at Chicago in 1907.
These samples filled the requirements
OF the score card but proved very
inferior for seed purposes, while
samples that wouldn't pass muster
according to the score cards were
much more valuable to propagate a
crop from. The test demonstrated
that the samples that did not come
up to the standard Of the score cards
were worth from $lS to 500 per
bushel more for seed purposes than
the high scoring samples. Both
these samples we're tested under the
same conditions.
Fabulous prices are being paid for
hlgh-scoring samples under the pres
ent score card system and which will
not lead to any improvement in corn
production, either in quality
or quantity. The first factor to
keep in mind in growing a good crop
OF corn in-good seed-seed that will
produce a strong vigorous plant from
the start. Secondly, select a variety
that produces the largest ear in pro.
portion to stalk, producing the ear
as low down on the stalk as possible,
say the fourth to the sixth joint from
the ground not counting the brace row
joint. 1t is we'll established fact
that all varieties or strains of corn
that produce the ear high up on the
stalk are late in maturing. Early
maturity is an important factor in all
ATTITUDES north Of central Iowa.
Bear in mind that one bushel of
sound, fully matured corn has more
feeding value than two bushels of
soft immatured corn. Again, all
strains Of corn that produce the ear
high up on the stalk are not only late
in maturing but liable to baroness;
in other words, stalks that produce
no ears. Barren stalks are unproft
able and should not be encouraged.
In selecting seed for an improvement
ir early maturity the writer selects
the ear soft short, stocky stalks and
ears that we're produced on the fourth
or fifth joint from the ground, say
three and half to four feet from the
ground. =
Perhaps it will not be out of order
to state here that the writer is the ori.
ginator and introducer of the earliest
dent corn introduced to the farming
world, notably the following varieties:
Pride Of the North, King of the
Earlies and Silver King. The writer
is not dealer but an actual breeder
of corn, having made breeding a
speciality for many years.

Corn Breeding and Corn Scoring.

Whileit is true that corn improve
ment is being agitated by the expert
mental stations and the agriculture
press and individual corn breeders
and great progress, has been
made towards Improvements, there
is abundant opportunity for better.
ment of the most important crop Of
the American farm today.
Speaking of scoring corn for quail.
ty as now practiced by the score card,
| will say that l am not in sympathy
with the method ascribed by the
present score card. An ear of certain
size and length, with straight rows of
kernels, is what comes up to the
standard Of merit as measured BY the
present score card. The idea that
an earn Of corn with straight rows of
kernels will produce better and more
corn than an ear with crooked rows
of kernels is absurd. on the face of it,
How absurd it is to say that an ear
nine inches long is better than an ear
eight or ten or eleven inches long.
As one Illinois writer puts the matter,
it is just as reasonable to maintain
that a black horse will trot faster
than a bay one because be is black
and that a long tailed SOW will raise
more and better pigs than short.
tailed one.
The apparent value of an ear of
corn, as shown by the physical con-
structions Of the ear, cuts no figure
in the quality of the ear for seed 10
grow crop from. Inherent value is
what does the business.
Again, speaking Of straight rows of
kernels on the cob, / will make the
statement without fear of successful
contradiction that not one ear in a
thousand has straight rows Of kernels.
After forty years of corn breeding
and a personal inspection of thous.
ands of ears and many hundreds of
corn fields, l am prepared to back
this statement with facts. So much
for straight rows Of kernels on the
cob.
Take an ear of corn and carefully
inspect it and you will observe that
that all corn has even rows Of kernels.
No living man ever saw an ear Of
corn with an odd number of rows of
kernels. ALI rows of kernels are in
pairs. This is in accordance with
the ipimitable laws of nature. What
divine right has the average corn
judge acquiring in the way Of science
that he may determine the inherent
value of an ear of corn for propagat-
ing purposes by its physical appear
ances' He may be able to judge the

pounds Of seed, and cover lightly.

II
! A much greater amount Of forag
will be secured per acre if a hal
bushel of oats per acre is first sowl
and then the prescribed amount o
seed lightly covered in. During th'
past season :he Missouri Experiment
Station found that about 33 per cen
more forage could be secured from ;
mixture OF rape and oats than from
rape alone.
For fall pasture one should SOW
about the first of July, or one may
obtain large amount of fall forage
by sowing at the last cultivation Of
the corn.
In from six to eight weeks from
the time of sewing stock may be
turned into the field and allowed to
pasture. Rape, however, should not
be turned into before the plants are
a foot to eighteen inches high. 1t
must have developed good root
system and top before it will with
stand much foraging. After turning
into do not pasture too closely. Do
not pasture until there remains moth
ing but. the bare stalk, but leave some
leaves to, carry on the life processes
OF the plant and thus unablesit to
quickly recover its normal statue.
Much greater results will be obtained
than from too close pasturing, and
too, when pastured in this way it
will provide forage from the latter
part of May to late in the fall.
Rape when fed alone to hogs is
slightly better than a maintenance ra.
ton, but as a supplement. to grain
ration it will save from twenty to
thiity.three per cent Of the usual
amount of grain for dry lot feeding.
The Missouri Experiment Station
found during the summer Of 1908 that
with rape it required 3.1S pounds Of
corn to produce pound Of grain,
with rape and oats 80 pounds Of corn
and with dry lot grain feeding, two
parts corn, one part shorts, 5.l2
pounds of feed to produce pound
of grain, thus effecting saving Of
grain, when rape and oat forage was
used, Of 30 and 43 per cent respec-
lively.
There can then be excellent
profits through the use Of grain with
hogs on forage. A general rule as
to the amount Of grain for hogs on
rape or rape and oat forage would be
to feed from II to 2 pounds of corn
per hundred weight per day.
Some care should be exercised in
turning hogs into rape forage for,
while they will not bloat, they may,
through the sudden change in diet,
