PROPER CARE FOR PASTURES
Mistake to Think That Close Cropped
Blades viii Produce the Most
Feed During Summer.

A man needs and wants all the In
come he can get safely from land. 1t
must be that some of us really be-
lieve that more can be gotten from
field by close pasturing than by let
ting the grass have chance to get
and keep ahead of the stock. II it
were not believed certainly there
would not be so much close pastur-
ing. The man who is hardest up and
needs the most income, too often is
the one that overstocks his grass. It
is a big mistake to think that an acre
Of grass plants will produce the most
feed during the summer by keeping
the blades cropped close to the
ground. II simply cannot, but will
produce less than it should and would
II there were good leaf surface to en-
able the plants to do their work OF
growing. Plenty of leaf surface Is
necessary to rapid growth. The way
to get the most possible pasturage
from a field during the season is to
let the grass get fair start in the
sIring and then let it keep ahead OF
the stock. And then there is another
year coming, as we believe, and the
field too closely pastured this year
cannot produce a full crop of grass
next year. These things being true
they should be believed.

FEW NON-PRoDUCTlVE HENS
Several Found Among Competitors at
Rational Egg conteGt That Never
Laid ar egg.

One Of the surprises Of the national
egg contest at Mountain Grove. Mo,
was that several hens among tho
competitors were found that mover
laid an egg. They seemed healthy and
ate as heartily as other hens
in the ren. but never laid a sisgle
egg.
How to account for this is mat
ter that puzzles the experts. We
don't know that they could find out,
SAYS the Kansas Farmer, even by
killing the hens and examining them
They can only say they were non-pro-
ductiyc. The finding of these non.
producing hens could only be found
ont by the use of trap nests, where a
daily record was kept of all the hens
that laid or didn't lay any eggs.
II is undoubtedly true that there are
a great many non-productiye n"ns in
the ilocts of this country, and It would
be n fine thing if they could be found
out. so as to be eliminated from the
flocks. The use o. the trap nests for
this purpose, on the ordinary farm, is
out of the question, for the farmer
would not have the time to attend to
them even if he did have the nests.
StDl. he can do great deal towards
the elimination of the non-producers
by observation. He can get rid of all
the hens that are over three years
old, for after that age they do not
lay many eggs. The supertiuous roost.
ers that are generally on every farm
are, of course, in the non-productive
class, and should be disposed of at
once.

IL Is well known that the progeny
from mature parents are superior to
those descended from young progcri-
tors not fully developed. Bears and
sows for breeding should be kept in a
good thrifty condition but not fat.

pigs.

WANT GAME LAWS CHANGED
Anne ndm emit for Further Protection OF
Deer Will Be Subject of Fight
Before Legislature.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. very decided
changes in the game laws are to be
proposed at the coming session of the
legislature. The question which will
attract the most attention will be that
of greater protection for deer, and not
only will the bill which has been Of
fered several times previously, to pro-
hibit altogether the shooting of does,
be presented, but another measure
will be introduced which will limit
the deer season to ten days and thus
reduce the open season for deer
hunting to exactly one half the period
at present allowed.
No attempt will be made at the
coming session to repeal the law pro-
hibiting the shooting of ducks in the
spring. Supporters of spring shooting
have become convinced, it is said, that
there is no chance for the passage of
law restoring spring shooting and
have therefore decided to abandon the
long fight which has been made for a
restoration Of spring shooting.
There are some changes to be pro-
posed in the fishing as we'll as the
hunting laws, but they will not be as
important as the amendments which.
are desired to the hunting laws.
