In this dull winter season, when you
do not have the regular farm work
to do. 1t might not be bad plan to
accustom the colts that are old enough
to work, to the sights incidental to the
country roads these days: for instance,
the ever-present automobile Is natu-

Take out the young ones and let
them get a sight of these frightful

Judging from the results obtained
from 1t during the past three years.
sudan grass, the latest grain sorghum
to be introduced into the United States.
has great future before it. During
the short time that It has been grown
in this country this new forage crop
has shown itself to be worthy OF per-
manent place on the American farm.
The successful farmer must grow
his own feel for his live stock, as it is
losing proposition to buy it on the
market. This is where sudan grass
comes in. 1t furnishes abundant rough
age OF good quality and high nutritive
value which is readily eaten by almost
all kinds of stock. The yield per acre
is high and crop failure is almost un.
known. These things. together with
the fact that it is an excellent drought
resister, will make sudan grass one OF
the most important forage crops Of the
future.
Sudan grass produces an excellent
quality of hay which has been shown
by analysis to have high feed value.
1t compares favorably with timothy
hay. as far as composition and palata-
bility are concerned There is no
waste in feeding sudan hay. for the
stock will eat all of it, both leaves and
stems. 1t makes according to satisfac-
| tory experiments an ideal feed to use
in connection with alfalfa or clover.
Sudan grass is heavy yielder. The
| 4vprQRn nf n nrn1nnod fn tho
| acre varies. of course with the eli
matte conditions and the kind of soil
on which the crop is grown; it, how
ever. ranges from one to four tons in
one season. When sowed broadcast or
| with drill. sudan grass grows to a
height of three or four feet. When
planted In rows, 1t often gets to be as
| high as seven or eight feet. 1t has a
decided tendency to stool; sometimes
| as many as 200 stems will arise from
one crown. These things account for
ed, and big yields are one of the fac.
tors that will make sudan grass the
forage crop of the future.
As to climatic conditions, sudan
grass will grow and mature as far
north as the southern boundary OF
North Dakota. 1t, however, prefers a
warm climate.
AS drought resister this new for.
age crop has been found to be better
than any of the other grain sorghums
1t can Withstand more dry weather
than even feterita, the most drought
resistant of the sorghums. This makes
1t blessing to the semiarid regions
and those parts of the country visited
by an occasional dry spell, for it in
sures winter supply Of hay or silage
Although drought resister. sudan
grass is not damaged by wet weather
During the season OF 1915, which in
some sections was the wettest in
years. great crops of this so-called
grass were reported. 1t seems from
this that, although 1t can get along
with little rainfall, too much rain will
only serve to make the crop better.
Sudan grass has been with US long

CALIFORNIA FRUIT
GROWERS MAY SUFFER

San Francisco, Aug. 30.-North-
western fruit interests are threatened
with serious losses as the result OF
an embargo placed on perishable
commodities and livestock shipments
by the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe
railroads. The orders, growing out
of the threatened railway strike. are
effective today, and just in the heavy
shipping season. the fruit interests
OF the country find themselves with
out means OF handling the rapidly
ripening crops, which will be ruined
III relief is not forthcoming quickly.
Nor is the shipper the only one in
convenienced by the new peril. A
message has been sent to all ticket
agents by Passenger Traffic Manager
C. S. Fee, OF the Southern Pacific. in
structing them to advise passengers
that they may experience delays un-
less they can reach their destinations
by Sunday night.
The embargo order of the Southern
Pacific follows:
"On account Of the impending
strike, all shipments of non-perish-
able freight for all destinations reach
ed by this company and its connec-
tions will be accepted only subject
to indefinite delay The company
can not accept perishable or livestock
shipments destined to Portland. Og-
den or FL Paso or points west there
OF. which can not be reached by regu-
lar freight train schedules by a. m.
Saturday. September 2, effective i'm
mediately."
With the grape harvest Just start
ing and the cattle raising sections
just rounding up stock for market
shipments. the order comes as a seri-
Gus blow to California farmers. II is
expected to cause trouble in supply
ing this city's needs until water trans
portation is inaugurated sufficiently
to handle some OF the commodities.
As a result of the strike prepara-
tions, neither the Southern Pacific nor
the Santa Fe expects to cease pas
senger train service II the strike is
called Monday. Southern Pacific Of
ficials declare former employees and
those in the service long enough to
warrant pension in a short time

pending crisis.
It is not known what preparations
have been made by the Western Pa
cific to meet the strike.
