Sow Cover Crops Now

Now is the time to sow cover
crops and SOW as much as pos
sible, according to those who
know.
On thin land use rye, and on
better land use vetch, clover, etc,
To those who wish to SOW
yetch or clover the government
will furnish free incubation for
the land. See T. A. Bowen,
Pickens, for this free service.
The following from the Pro
gressive Farmer may be of in
terest to Pickens county farm
ers;
"One reader says he sowed
bur cloyer last November and
got splendid results. Another
says he sowed crimson clover
the middle of November, and
still another sowed red clover in
January, and all three assure us
we are mistaken in our belief
that it is necessary to sow these
crops in September.
When moisture is abundant
and the winter mild, or when
everything is favorable, a good
crop may be grown with such
late seeding, but we cannot af-
ford to base our advice on these
exceptionalseasonso conditions.
Our advice is based on the aver
age conditions and results and
we affirm, as positively as if the
unusual amount of moisture in
some sections and the mild win
ter had not enabled some to sue
ceed with such late seeding, that
these legumes do better sowed
September than in November,
and that in the northern half OF
the Cotton Belt they should be
sowed the first half of Septem-
Der, and in the Southern half
the belt, preferably the latter
half Of September or early IN
October

HOGS BEST
FOR MAKING PORK
Dean Henry of Wisconsin Gath
ers Considerable Data on
This Interesting Question.

Young animals make more pounds
of gain from their food than when
older. Dean Henry Of Wisconsin
gathered a lot of data on this and
found that 3S-pound pigs required 293
pounds of feed to make 100 pounds of
gain, 7S-pound pigs required 400
pounds of feed; 12S-pound pigs, 437
pound. of feed; 174-pound pigs, 1872
pounds; 226-pound pigs, 49s pounds;
271-pound pigs. 511 pounds. and for
the 330-pound hogs it took 535 pounds
of food to make the 100 pounds of
gain, or nearly twice as much as for
the 3s-pound pig. This, emphasizes
the Importance of pushing the hogs
from the start in order to make the
most economical gains. 1t has been
found at the North Dakota expert.
