HAY IN ROTATION.
BY William p. Brooks, Mass. Agricul.
tural Exp. Station.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
Commonly grass follows wheat or
rye in rotation, but may be success.
fully sown after spring rye or wheat
but the most encouraging results will
follow from methods such as have
been proven by experiments. The
custom has been to SOW grass with
wheat in the autumn and to SOW
clover when that is used on the wheat
land early in the spring. This may
be a good plan but cannot be relied
upon.
After the wheat is harvested, long
hot summers give the young grass
or clover plants hard struggle.
To make the growing Of grass most
profitable, separate preparation OF
land and separate sowing of the grass
seed in the late summer or early fall
after the removal of the wheat crop
is by far the most promising method
AS soon as possible after the cutting
of the wheat, the stubble should be
disc narrowed and the surface put in
fine, mellow condition for one or two
inches deep and should be occasion
ally re-harrowed through the summer
when the moisture content is right,
and then heavily seeded with mixed
grass in the late summer.

FERTILIZERS TO BE USED.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
The selection of fertilizers for ap
plication to land which is to be seeded
to hay should, in all cases, be varied
in accordance with the kind Of hay de-
sired. If hay containing a large pro
portion of clover is wanted, materials
which supply relatively large amounts
of potash and phosphoric acid should
me employed If hay, largely timothy
and relatively free from clovers is
wanted, then the proportion of materi.
ais furnishing potash and phosphorio
acid should be smaller while the ma
terials supplying nitrogen should be
applied in relatively large proportion.
There is considerable evidence to show
that if timothy is desired, potash in the
form of muriate is preferable to sui.
fate, while for clovers on many soils,
and especially in wet season, the sui
fate is preferable.

AlSikE CLOVER.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
Alsike clover is one Of the most
valuable legumes for forage and pas.
ture crops. 1t seems adapted to the
stronger and moister soils, where II
does better than the common red
1t makes a large yield in thin land
Being finer, 1t cures more easily
than either the common red OF
the mammoth clover, producing hay
OF very superior quality. 1t is, how
ever, of great value as honey crop
for the honey bee can reach the nee.
tar in its flowers, which 1t can seldom
do in the case Of the red and nam
moth clovers. In few respects alsike
clover appears to be somewhat infer
ior to the red and mammoth varieties.
In many cases it does not persist sc
long, nor does 1t appear to yield SC
heavy a second growth. The variety,
however, Is of such value that II
should always be included in mixtures
OF seeds for the stronger and moister
soils, where hay including clover Is de
sired.

INSTRUCTIONS TO HAY lNSPEC
TORS.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
1t is the opinion Of large majority
of shippers that inspectors are too
technical and stringent in the grad
ing of No. l Timothy. Good
color" should not be construed to
mean the same as bright, natural
color" as used in describing Choice
Timothy The words good color"
should not exclude hay with brown
blades if in all other respects it is
good enough for No. l Timothy.
Neither should these words exclude
hay with slightly brown heads if in
other respects good enough for No. 1
Timothy.
Inspectors should always bear in
mind that they should be arbitrators
between buyer and seller, and that
they should not unfairly favor either,
even though one Is present and the
other is not.

THERE'S MONEY IN HAY.
Hay 10 Second only 10 Corn 80 .
Money Crop-A Plea for Moro
and Better Grass.

National Crop Improvement seryice.)
although We see a good deal about
clover and other legumes as means
to gather nitrogen into the soil" said
Mr.. p +. Goodrich, president OF the
National Hay Association Everybody
seems to have overlooked the fact
that there is more money in hay than
there is in any other one crop except
corn. In other words, clover and
alfalfa are not only means to an end.
but no mean end themselves.
Taking the United States as a
whole, it does not produce per acre
over half as much as 1t should, and 1t
only has about half as many acres as
the demand requires.
"Grass crops are less trouble than
any other crop, and our association is
very much interested in bringing up
the hay production, not only in guam
tity, but eventually in quality.
"The price of hay is all out Of rea.
son, and inasmuch as the prosperity OF
other kinds of crops depends so much
upon hay crops, this association is
active in preaching a sensible rota-
tion"

COMMON WEEDS IN HAY.
Raymond olney, Of M. RumeIy Com.
pany.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
A considerable proportion of the
mowings OF hay are infested with
weeds of different kinds. Among the
most common and troublesome are the
common white and yellow daisy, wild
carrot, sorrel, dock, buttercups, the
common plantain, dandelions, milk
weed, ragged robin and horsetail The
methods to keep them in subsection
must be quite different in details for
the different weeds; but in general ii
may be said that, II the soil is kept
sweet by sufficient use OF lime, and
well enriched, the conditions will be
made so favorable for the growth Of
the better grasses and the clovers that
the weeds will have relatively little
chance.
The grasses and the clovers, in the
struggle for existence which is always
going on in the meadows, will prove
victorious. If weeds have a strong
growth the only method is to reseed.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
Meetings are being arranged
throughout the entire hay belt to hold
a conference of all the farmers in each
community to discuss the hay problem
and to agree upon line of procedure
which will improve the quality and
quantity OF the crop.
Applications are being made to the
Agricultural Colleges to furnish speak
ers and demonstrators to attend these
meetings. When the line of procedure
Is decided for each community every
farmer is requested to sign the agree
ment to carry out these scientific
methods upon his own farm.
A hay meeting covers the following
subjects:
1. Methods Of preparing ground.
2. What rotation and what should
hay follow.
8. Building up soil.
4. Preparation of seed bed.
8. How to select best types.

GREATEST GRASS CROP.
BY J. Carver Strong, National Hay and
Grain Reporter.

Concerning alfalfa Ex-Governor
Hoard of Wisconsin says: The alfalfa
movement is the most important agri.
cultural event OF the century" The
latest Kansas reports show one million
acres of alfalfa in cultivation, more
than all other tame grasses combined.
A prominent gentleman of that state
says: Were l called upon to say what
single product of the soil would prob
ably assume the greatest Importance
in our state in the near future, would
say alfalfa" AS Beecher said about
strawberries, doubtless God could
make a better forage plant than al.
falfa but in my opinion, he never has
AS a forage plant for general use so
far as know it has no equal.

NETWORKS ON ALFALFA.

When the webworms start taking
the leaves off Of your alfalfa, cut the
alfalfa at once, re matter how big or
little it may be. Remove the hay. IL
there is any. Then with an alfalfa
renovator or a smoothing harrow
weighted sufficiently TO do business,
wool those worms around in the dirt
and smash them. Doing this work
promptly often means another cutting
OF alfalfa which would have been lost
II the worms had been allowed to
harvest the crop.

ALFALFA STEM BLIGHT.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
AS a means Of control for stem
blight of alfalfa it is recommended
that the frosted alfalfa be clipped,
with the mower set low, as soon as
it is reasonably certain that the dan
ger from late frosts is past. This will
rid the plants of the diseased por-
tions, and afford an opportunity for
the early growth of a new cutting.
If this is done in time. the regular
number of cuttings should be secured
with little or no loss In tonnage
