SECURING STAND OF ALFALFA


A seven-acre field of alfalfa on the
Ohio State university farm, at Column.
bus, presents a good argument In
favor of spring seeding, with oats as
nurse crop. This field was seeded
April IL, at rate of fifteen pounds
of alfalfa and bushel of oats per
acre, both sown in the grain drill at'
the same operation. On July Is the
oats were cut for hay, making q yield
of little over q ton and half per
acre.
4 BY September 10 the alfalfa was
ready for the first cutting. and the.
yield of field-cured hay ON the seven
acres was 1880 pounds, or little
over nine tons. It is rather unusual
to secure crop Of hay the first season
after seeding, but good seed prepares
tion and favorable weather conditions
last summer are partly accountable
for this excellent stand.
The field, which is level and well
drained. was in potatoes in 1910. That
fall it was sown to rye, which was
plowed under the following spring
and the land planted to corn. In the
fall this corn ground was plowed with
a deep tilling machine and left for the
winter. In April it was thoroughly
disked and narrowed before the alfalfa
and oats were soWn.

RAISING THE EARLY CABBAGE
High Fertility 10 important for Hasten
Ing Maturity and Increasing
Yield Of Crop.

Early cabbage requires high fertil-
ity. This is important for two rea-
sons, namely, it hastens maturity and
increases the yield. Both of these fac
tors are essential to realize the largest
profits. Stable manures should be used
literally and should be supplemented
by dressing of about ton Of a
high-grade fertilizer. The most sue
cessful cabbage growers use fertil-
izer containing four to six per cent. of
nitrogen and from eight to ten per
cent. Of each of the mineral elements.
If the soil is drought resultant, the
plants may be set closer together. In
tensive growers having very rich.
moist soils often plant IA to rs inches
apart. The better plan, however, is to
allow more space between rows, say
rs or 30 inches or even SO in some in
stances, thus making it possible to
cultivate later in the season. Mois-
ture conservation should be given the
closest attention for the cabbage re-
quires an immense quantity of water
to produce large heads.

FAULTY FEET Or The HORSE
Ehupostant That Draft Animal Should
BE Able TO Walk Fast Without
Tlrin0--Few Essentials.


A draft horse does most OF his hard
work at the walking gait. It is. there
fore, important that he should be able
to walk fast without firing. He should
be able to walk four miles an hour
with load. II his feet are deformed
In any way. whether It be by disease
or hereditary, he cannot do his best
work.
The soles Of the feet should turn
up and show the shoes plainly as the
horse moves away from the observer.
The feet should be lifted quickly and
evenly and be set down squarely and
firmly.
The hoofs should be ample ii size,
sound, smooth and symmetrical in
shape. The hoof is continuation Of
the skin OF the parts above. The color
of the skin decides the color of the
hoof. Color counts for little, how-
ever, IL the hoofs are of poor shape
and texture. The horn should be-
smooth, waxy-looking and free from
cracks or ridges. and the coronets
should be open, prominent and wide
at the heels. The sole should be slight
ly cupped, not fiat or bullying; the
frog large, elastic, healthy and with
out deep cleft: the bars prominent.
Poor fore feet are one OF the conn
monest and most serious faults in
draft horses.

PRIME BITTER ROT cANkERs
Disease Is Constant Menace to the
Apple Growers and Varies Greatly
IN 10 Niralanee

.
In sections where bitter rot is
known to occur, the disease is q
constant menace to the apple grow
er. It varies greatly in virulence in
different years, sometimes being SO
destructive as to destroy the crop
over large areas. It seldom bothers
the fruit of early apples, as it does
not appear ON the fruit until mid
summer.
It attacks the limbs. however. and
forms cankers from which the spores
are given of early In the season. The
CANCERS are sunken areas Of the
bark, which are dark In color, adj
here closely to the underlying wood
and are more or less cracked. These
areas produce the spores from
which the disease Is spread. Remove
cankered limbs in pruning. Where
the caRker is small and on a large,
vigorous limb, pare on the dead
bark with the pruning knife and
paint the wound. Spray the trees at
least four times the next season with
Bordeaux mixture.

sIlacs for Horses.

The Pennsylvania station expert
mented with feeding horses siiage,
and here is what Prof. Cochel says Of
feeding 1t to draft horses:
Silage, which is made from mature
corn. is free from mold, has not been
exposed to air too long before feed
ing, and is properly supplemented
with other feeds which will make up
the deficiency in protein. can be fed
to horses with safety when care IL
used to have them become gradually
accustomed to 1t.
Horses fed silage as portion Of
their ration consumed less grain.
made their gains at lesser cost per
pound. were sleeker and better fin
ished than when fed on rations not
containing silage.
