START NOW TO HAVE A
GOOD PERMANENT PASTURE
A Really Good Pasture Viii: Pay
Handsome Dividends.

We've said it before and we re-
peat it here, that no man can really
do the best of farming without a
good permanent pasture. Some live
stock are a necessity on every farm,
and no livestock can be kept most
economically unless there is plenty
Of pasturage.
Spring is the season for planting
and making good permanent pas
lures, and the wise farmer will see
te<it that this problem gets his i'm
mediate attention. The correct To-
cation of the pasture is of impor-
tance, and as a rule il should be
adjoining the barnyard, in easy ac-
cess of all the farm animals. It's
area, of course. must be determined
by the number and kind of livestock
kept.
In 80 per cent OF all the Cotton
Belt we believe the basis of the per-
manent pasture should be Bermuda
grass. 1t is adapted to very wide
range OF soil and climatic conditions,
loves hot weather, and is nutritious.
The turf may be planted at nearly
any time. though for best results
we would plant from April to June.
Seed may be used for planting where
the truf is not easily obtainable
AS a summer-growing complement to
Bermuda, lespedeZa should have n
place in every Southern pasture.
Though an annual, it reseeds itself
each fall and thus is permanent.
Then to furnish winter and early
spring grazing bur and white clover
should be sowed on the Bermuda.
White clover is a perennial and bur
clover, though an annual. reseeds
itself when once started. A COM
bination of these four grazing plants
will. we believe, be found suited to
wider range of conditions and have
greater adaptation to our needs
than any other.
In establishing n pasture let us
not ever forge,, either, that the bet
ter treatment we give it the greater
returns 1t will give us. A quilted
hillside is not a pasture, nor is q
woods with a fence around it. The

statistics indicate a general low
ering death rate among Americans,
rural and urban. One wonders
whether the advent of he ubiquitous
porch has had an appreciable influ-
ence in bringing about this result.
The gospel of fresh air owes some
acknowledgement to this part of the
house which lures men, women and
children out of stuffy rooms and fills
their lungs with fresh air. The porch
knows no social caste; it is not q
rich mans privilege alone The
humblest home may posses it and,
in fact usually does. More power
