Mr.. Munger has solved the problem.
A rotation, bringing in crops other

dreaded disease out Of existence.
This experience is only one Of many
that are benefiting progressive farm

Of plant diseases, Professor l.. II.

Of Iowa State college, saws, "The ny
genie treatment or rotation Of crops

Prof. "A. L. Bake; Of the same de-

Up TO DATE Stock FEEDING

BY PAUL JOHNSON. Iowa state College,
Last summer Capt. w. s. A. Smith
Of Leeds, Iowa, topped the Sioux
market with two carloads Of mixed
heifers and steers that sold for 1915.
These cattle were fattened on sum-
ner pasture Of alfalfa and grass. The
other part Of the ration was an aver
age of 20 fbs. of ear corn per head,
shovelled into the hunks each morn
ing.
These cattle were purchased as feed
ers for $5.25 and were not very fine
looking bunch when bought. It was
surprising, however, to see how uni
formly they fattened out. Altogether
the captain fed over SO head on pas
ture and though this was but small
or part Of his feeding operations, it
was not the least profitable. One
hundred and twenty head Of large hogs
followed these cattle and fattened on
the pasture and droppings. These
were sold during the summer In
This experience Of Capt. Smith, there
were two outstanding features: First,
the profit from summer feeding; and,
second, the value Of alfalfa to the
Iowa farmer Both Of these practices

frequently and succeeded inkceping
the vines green, growing and healthy.
"That spraying does the business, =
thought he and proceeded to harvest
his crop. To his surprise, about one
fourth Of the potatoes were already
rotten and that meant immediat e
disposal Of the remainder Of the crop
at any price he could get.
Disguised with the potato bust
ness, Mr.. Munger limited his next
years potato patch to five acres Ii
the garden, and raised excellent crops
of corn, oats and wheat on the old
potato forty.
Potato growing is like steer feed
ing-a habit difficult to break land
now Mr. Munger is back in the pota-
to business. Last years crop on the
old troublesome forty was wonder,

leaves or tubers.

NEED CROP ROTATION
ny R. NJ. FUTILE. low. st.t. College.

ny II. ~. FUTILE, lows state CoAS0os-
Even though the fertility of the soil
eould be permanently fixed so that
g. e~op-producing power would not
diminish, still the necessity for crop
rotation would be as strong as ever,
That is perhaps a broad statement,
but Mr.. Jacob Munger, Of Clay county.
Iowa, clings to that policy like sand
burrs to a mules tail.
MIR. Munger is somewhat Of q po-
tato fancier and believes that pota-
toes are money crop in northern
Iowa. Five years ago he purchase d
a rich eighty acre farm and put half
Of it into potatoes. Several Of the
vines became infested with white and
brown spots which in many casea
killed them.
However, he gathered -, enormous
crop Of large and seemingly sound
potatoes which he stored under
ground for four months. When he
removed his crop from storage, about
half Of the tubers were infested with
rot and were valueless. But encourag.
ed by his enormous "op, Mr.. Munger
again planted potatoes upon the Same
forty acres. This time he sprayed

produced more economical and larger
returns than older methods.
The SO head were fed on a pasture
of 90 acres. This had originally been
an alfalfa meadow and though the
blue grass had come in to q consider
able extent, the alfalfa still FREEDOM
ated. OF course, in time the blue
grass will choke the alfalfa out but
last summer in spite of the fact that
there was over one steer to the acre,
and also quite large bunch OF hogs,
feeding after the herd, the pasture
grew so luxuriantly that it was now
ed twice, producing considerable hay.
In addition to this pasture, there is
maintained on an average Of over
100 acres of alfalfa meadow which
produces from 1-2 to tons Of valu.
able hay. It is interesting that al
though one can find specimens Of
nearly every variety Of noxious weeds
on this farm, they are held in check
by the alfalfa in the rotation prac-
ticed, and never bother to any extent
in the grain fields. As result of the
growing Of alfalfa and the manure
from the extensive feeding operations,
the fertility and crop producing abil-
ity Of the fields on this farm have
been mail tanned. and even increase.
Then two things-stock feeding and
alfalfa growing have built up this
farm and filled the owners pocket
book. Every bit of roughage is saved
to be fed to the stock. Most of the
small grains are cut quite green, be-
cause the owner wants the nutrients
in the straw to be as digestable as
possible. Most of the oats are fed
as sheaf oats.
Silage forms a large part of the
winter ration, with corn, alfalfa hay,
sheaf oats and cotton seed meal.
That it pays to be up-to-date and
get out Of old worn-out ruts may be
shown when one looks over the de-
tailed accounts kept on this farm.
It may be summed UP in the state
ment that during the dry period Of
1911-12, the profit side Of the ledger
for the years operations on the farm
showed nearly $4,000 to the good.
