late summer and early fall rains. The
man who has much live stock on hand
will find 1t necessary to provide tenn
porary fall and winter pasture. For
this purpose there is no better crop
than rye.
Rye may be seeded any time during
September or October, and is not at
tackled by the Hessian fly, so 1t will
not endanger fall wheat. 1t may be
sown just as early us the seeded can
BILE land or after corn has been cut for
silage or fodder.
A bushel and half Is enough for
early sowing, but two bushels should
be used later, or a mixture of 30 or
40 pounds of rye and Is or 20 pounds
of vetch will give good results If
sown late in August or early in Sep
tember.
Small fields of such cover crops fur
nish great deal Of pasture at little
expense and leave the soil in better
condition than If they had not been
grown. The vetch is a legume which
adds nitrogen and the fine roots oe
rye protect the soil against washing,
which is more serious between grow
Ing seasons than most people realize.
Next sprr the rye may be turned un-
der as grain manuring crop before
complaining time.
