N FOR FARMERS

The farmers in the state of Oregon
have the privilege of securing money
from the state. These farmers have
to pay 6 per cent interest. They have
the privilege of securing from $3.50 to
$4,000 as their wants permit. The
state Of Oregon has extended this
privilege to the farmers for over so
years and in not a single case has it
resulted in a loss. 1t will only be a
question of time when the farmers
of other states will be able to secure
money at a low rate of interest.

TIME TO CUT

Alfalfa should be cut when about
one-tenth in bloom. If the hay is to
be used for horses the cutting can be
delayed two or three days. Horses
prefer a hay that is more matured,
while cattle and sheep prefer the hay
that is cut a little before maturity.
Some farmers determine the time to
cut alfalfa by the new shoots. The
shoots appear, however, at the same
time as the blossoms. Either method
is good.
