The schists of the Apache Chief property are of the softer variety, showing wide spread secondary naturalization, with copper and iron. This is direct func- ton of the intrusion of several quartz porphyry or rhyolite dykes distinctly traceable on the surface.

Getting a Better Stand on Old Pas
lures.

The question often arises, whether
a pasture, having an imperfect stand
of the desired plants, should be
plowed up and q new start made;
or whether additional seed should be
sowed with a view to thickening the
stand. We are often. asked this ques-
ton, but to give a definite answer
that will fit all cases is impossible.
Moreover, it is seldom that we are
given sufficient of the facts involved
to permit of an intelligent answer
in the particular case at point.
1t is a we'll known fact that such
plants as Bermuda or Johnson grass,
having Underground stems or root
stocks, are benefited by being plowed

PLANT FRUIT TREES THIS FALL

All perfectly hardy trees should
be transplanted in the fall rather
than the following spring if we can
rely upon the results of tests made at
the Missouri Agricultural Expert
ment station. Jonathan apple trees
planted in the. fall made nearly twice
as good a growth as those planted the
next spring. Of cherry trees trans
planted in the, fall every NJ lived
while only a third of those planted
in the. spring survived the dry sum-
mer of that year. Those which did
live made only a quarter as good a
growth as those planted the fall be-
fore: This comparison is based main
ly on the, terminal growth or length
added. to the branches, which is a
very important means of telling how
an orchard is thriving. Even peach
trees and others less hardy than ap-
pie and cherry trees do better when
fall planted in the southern quarter
of Missouri. Fall planting is better
even farther north if followed by a
mild winter, but a severe winter is
likely to kill the trees.
In ordering fruit trees for fall
planting, insist that they be dug and
shipped just when the leaves begin
to fall and the remaining leaves can
be easily stripped from the nursery
stock. These young, rapidly grow
ing trees hold their leaves from two
weeks to a month longer than those
in the orchard which have been bear
ing for some time. During most sea
sons the best time for transplanting
is during the first half of November,
but planting any time before the
ground freezes has been found to
give better results than spring plant
ing.-Progressive Farmer.

News for the Farmer

fitted by breaking even to a limited
extent.
If the pasture is set largely in Ber-
muda and it is not doing as well as
it should, or if more of plants like
white or bur clover r desired, we
think it better to break and disk the
land where it is practicable to do so.
The Bermuda is benefited and a more
suitable condition is brought about
for getting a stand of the other
plants. We do not advise the vast
ing of bur clover and other seeds,
by sowing on a Bermuda sod, which
we are convinced is the usual result
of such a practice. But where Ber-
muda or Johnson gross is not the
chief plant in the pasture, or where
the usual other perennial plants are
used, like bluegrass, alsike and white
clover, and any of the other common
perennial pasture plants, it is not
usually advisable to disturb the
plants already on the land by break
ing. 1t is generally much better to
try to increase the pasture plants by
sowing the seed of some of those
known to do we'll on such a soil. Les
pedeza, white and bur clovers are
admirably adapted to this purpose.
Lespedeza and bur clover, particu-
larly, being annual plants, reseed
themselves naturally in this way from
year to year. For all except Bermu-
da and johnson grass, time is an i'm
portant element in building up a
good stand of our common pasture
plants and it is usually much better
practice to keep down the weeds, fer
tilize and lime to improve the stand
and growth of those already present,
than to make a new start that will
destroy the growth of those plants
which have shown their adoption to
the conditions by maintaining them
selves on the land for a number of
years.
If, however, the land is to be bro
ken for the purpose of adding such
materials as will better fit it for
growing the plants which are desired,
but which have not been able to
grow, it may be better to pillow, if
by so doing more suitable conditions
for their growth r brought about.
But as a rule this is not the best
plan on which to make a pasture. 1t
is generally much better to use such
as have proved their adapta-
by having done well under
conditions.-The Progressive

SOUTH CAROLINA MAN
LIKES ALFALFA
Says Three Acres to Crop
Saved Him Lots of Corn And
is Blessing.

Clemson College, S. c., Sept
"My three acres of alfalfa saved me
at least $3.50 worth of corn this
year." said a Lancaster County,
South Carolina, farmer recently. 81
think it is the best crop that has
come into this section in a long,
ready that I cannot do without it.
1t grows we'll for me and I had no
trouble in getting a stand. The
soil I have it growing on is of the
loan type with a clay-gravel sub
soil"
The reason this farmer is so en-
thusiastic is because his alfalfa
saves so much corn for him, and a
very good reason it is. Alfalfa has
a higher feeding value than timothy,
Sudan grass, and other grasses. In
fact, the composition of alfalfa is
about the same as that of wheat
long time, and although I have
raised it only two years I feel al
bran, meaning that when alfalfa is
fed less grain will be required than
when hay from the grasses is used.
This is especially important this
year when grain is so high. 1t has
been found that when alfalfa is fed
in place of bran the milk now is
only decreased less than ten per
cent, showing that alfalfa is nearly
as good as bran. In buying hay one
can afford to pay more for good al
falfa hay than for hay from the
common grasses. If it a be bought
! for the same price it will be a bar
gain. Alfalfa usually produces more
to the acre than any other hay crop.
This combined with its higher feeding
value make it one of the best of hay
crops. Then again, when a good
stand of alfalfa is secured it will
last for a number of years, unless
some condition out of the ordinary

BEST FEED FOR STOCK.
Best FaII-Sown Crop That Can
Be, Grown for Feeding of
Livestock.

Clemson College, S. C.,-Many
South Carolina farmers had a disas-
trous experience with oats last win
ter when a large part of the crop
was destroyed by the February
freeze, but it is not very probable
that the same thing will occur this
year. Oats is generally recognized
as being the best grain crop for fall
sowing in South Carolina, as it usu-
ally yields better than other grains,
natures early, and both grain and
straw may be. fed to livestock.
Seed oats will be high priced this
fall, due to the short crop last
spring, thus it is desirable to use
special precautions to get a good
stand with as little seed az possible.
Less is needed when sown early on
well-prepared land. In preparing the
soil it is usually best not to pillow
the land unless it is hard or weedy.
A fine, mellow seeded two or
three inches deep may be made with
a disk, spring-tooth, or spike-tooth
harrow. On land from which a crop
of cowpeas or soybean hay has been
removed, a good seeded may be
made with the disk harrow.
Varieties for South Carolina.
For South Carolina conditions the
best oat to grow is the Red Rust
proof type, including such varieties
as the Appler, Bancroft, Cook, Hun
dred- Bushel and Patterson. The
Fulghun may also be grown to ad-
vantage. This variety ripens about
ten days earlier.
Seeding Oats.
October is the ideal month to SOW
oats in South Carolina. The grain
drill is the best method Of seeding
and if sown early in October on
well-prepared land two bushels is
sufficient to seed an acre. Sowing
broadcast and blowing. or disking is
a very uncertain method and re-
quires from a half to a bushel more
seed. If a grain drill is not avail
able, seeding may be done with an
ordinary cotton or corn planter or
a one-horse drill. From one to two
inches is deep enough to cover the
seed.
