Order of Benefit TO
StOCkmen Of Arizona

The district forester has an
nounced that the secretary of ag-
riculture has recently extended
the pasturage regulations. This
information will prove of exceed
ing benefit to stockmen residing
on or running stock with in the
national forests of Arizona and
New Mexico.
Heretofore, stockmen on nation
al forests have been able to secure
permits for the fencing of land
for exclusive pasturage purpose
on the basis of 320 acres for the
first 200 head of cattle or their
equivalent, and an additional acre
for each additional head. This
acreage maximum has now been
doubled for Arizona and New
Mexico, whereby 320 acres of
fenced pasturage can be secured
for the first 100 head of cattle or
their equivalent, and two acres
additional for each additional
head. 1t is stated by forest Off
cials that this should meet the
needs of the live stock interests,
which requires enclosures for the
holding of saddle stock, the hold
ing of beef stock before shipment
as weaving pastures, Landing
pastures and for carrying poor
stock through the spring months.
In exceptional cases where an
excessive amount of fenced en-
closure is necessary to properly
handle stock on national forests
under permit, as for instance,
the raising of thoroughbred cattle
as much as 40 acres per head has
been allowed by the forest ser
vice.

The national government to is
sue 3 or 81 per cent bonds.
The proceeds of the sale of these
bonds to be given to the state on
demand, with suitable safeguards
The states to lend this money
only on form mortgages.
Loans on farm lands to be made
through the county commission
ers.
Mortgages allowed on so per

The borrower to pay 81 to per
cent on long time loans.
These are the essential features
in skeleton form, of the agricult-
ural credits loan system advocat-
ed by Guy 7. Helvering, congress
man from the Fifth district,
Kansas.
The main points in favor of this
plan, according to Congressman
Helvering, are:
1t would bring into circulation
the tomato can" money-money
of persons who fear to invest it or
put it in the banks, and who de-
posit it in the postal saving banks
for 2 per cent.
No incrsase would be made in
the circulating medium of the
nation.
The national government would
be protected by each and every
state.
The state would be protected by
mortgages based on so per cent
of the assessed value of the land.
The costof operating the system
would be at a minimum.
One-tenth of l percent, Congress
man Helvering figures, would
more than cover the cost to the
state.
The borrower would not be ask
ed to pay a higher rate Of interest
than 81 or A per cent.

FEW ALFALFA FACTORS
Under irrigation 1t Is Better to
Sow With Nurse Crop.
Wheat and Oats Are Used Quite Ex
tensively Because They Pay Best,
but Barley Has Been Found to
Be Most Excellent.

Climatic conditions and other fac
tors influencing the growth of alfalfa
occasion so much difference between
the humid regions of the east and the
arid districts of the west that the
same rules are not applicable in both
cases. This is noticeable to consid-
erable degree in seeding alfalfa.
Some of the most successful alfalfa
growers have found it best to,sow al
falfa alone, although nurse crop is
frequently used even here. Under ir-
rigation conditions it is usually best
to SOW with a nurse crop.
Both the time and manner of
planting are determined, cf course,
largely by altitude and by soil condi-
tions. If in an altitude over 5000 feet,
it is best to seed just as soon in the
spring as danger from killing frost is
past. This plan prevails largely in
northern Colorado, in the high areas
IF the San Luis valley, and through
out the mountain regions generally,
says the Orange Judd Farmer. The
high valuation placed on irrigated land
makes farmers loath to lose one years
crop, and is one of the influencing
factors for sowing with nurse crop.
The nurse crop usually chosen is
one which proves most remunerative,
or which can be utilized best under
prevailing conditions. Wheat and
oats are used quite largely because
h,,f har
found to make the best nurse crop.
If it we're as profitable to western
farmers as wheat or oats, 1t would
be used entirely for seeding with al
falfa.
The common plan is to drill in the
seed, using from s to 16 pounds
per acre, depending on the quality OF
the seed, character of seed bed and
method of sowing. The full amount
of seed grain for the nurse crop is
not sown, however, only from one
half to two-thirds the normal amount
per acre being used. This gives the
alfalfa more room and better
chance to grow. The nurse crop is
usually removed before the alfalfa has
grown enough to need more room.
Another reason why a nurse crop is
advisable is that many types of west.
9rn soils are inclined to blow. Fine
particles of soil and sand, driven
by the wind are likely to cut down
the young alfalfa plants and injure or
destroy the entire seeding. The roots
of the small grain tend to keep the
soil from blowing and serve as pro-
lection to the tender young alfalfa
plant until it has become thoroughly
rooted.
Many farmers have been successful
in drilling alfalfa in with their winter
wheat as early in the spring as con-
ditions will permit. In the higher por-
tions of the west and southwest, such
as the Arkansas valley and other re-
gions still farther south, summer or
fall seeding can be done successfully
w. H. Olin of Idaho, who has had a
very extensive experience with alfalfa
states that the greatest obstacle to
fall or summer seeding is the tendency
of many types of western soils to
bake after being irrigated. He has
never been successful in getting
good stand of alfalfa where conditions
made it necessary to irrigate a crop
