Sheep, it has been estimated BY those

swine. But the pasture is indispen-

can be kept in the pen. But swine
are seldom profitable when kept in

acre of alfalfa on new ground. This
spring I had this acre measured by
DIR. E. II. Jenkins, director of the Con-
necticut experiment station at New
Haven. and he reported ii 0.94 of an
acre. | have lately cut the first crop
of alfalfa, and representative of the
experiment station weighed the hay as
il went out of the field. on hay scales
especially set in a handy place for
that purpose. The total weight was
5210 pounds. This gives the yield of
the first cutting of alfalfa for this
field at 2.76 tons per acre. There will
be at least two more cuttings this
season, and both of them will be
weighed and reported
| have also heard il said that it
would be impossible TO cure alfalfa

climate. June 10 l cut four acres
alfalfa that stood about 3S inches
high. with thick. dense foliage. 1t
