Rape often fills an important place
on the hog farm. On the best regu-
lated farm there are times In the late
summer and fall when pasture for
hogs is short. This is especially true

loft pastures very short and clover a
comparative failure. Rape has been
found TO be very useful In providing
green pasture on occasions like these.
Rape furnishes pasture as good as
clover and often makes even better
Gains on the hogs. Prof. Carlyle
saws: Rape is a better green FORAGE
for growing pigs than good clover
pasture: the pigs fed upon rape nav
