PLANT ROUGHAGES FOR cows
Every Farmer Is Advised to Grow
Abundance of Alfalfa or Clover
Concentrates High.

Grow an abundance of feed for the
cow this season, advises A. S. Neale,
specialist in dairy husbandry, division
of extension, Kansas State Agricultural
college.
ALREADY the price of concentrates
is out of sight Prices will continue
high unless these concentrates are re-
placed by the cheaper roughages," said
Mr.. Neale. "Every farmer should plan
to grow plenty of alfalfa or clover, and
silage. If alfalfa or clover cannot be
grown in your section substitute an
other leguminous crop, such as cow
peas.
During the next II months the pro-
duction of dairy products will be due
largely to the feeding of roughages in
stead of concentrates, as has formerly
been the case.
DAIRY cows of quality receiving
nothing but roughage can produce 200
to $50 pounds of butterfat annually,
provided the roughage is fed in abund-
ance and is composed of combination
of silage and leguminous hay. OF
course poor cows will not do so well
on this ration"

POULTRY QUICK MEAT SOURCE
CockereIs Can Be Marketed When

East Lansing, Mich.-In these days
when quick meat production is almost

poultry offers quick method of meet

of the Michigan Agricultural college

be brought into laying condition in
four months time. Cockerels can be
marketed when four weeks old-added
TO which there is the fact that there
Is no other animal on the farm capable
of converting waste material into so
delicious meat in such short period.
IF every family living on the out
skirts Of our larger cities, or in the
smaller villages, was to keep a half.
dozen hens, the family food cost would
be appreciably lowered through the
production of eggs. Droppings from
the table, instead of passing through
the garbage can, would be transformed
by hens into an article of food OF
highest merit-accomplishing at one
stroke the double aim of the present
campaign to conserve food, as well as
to increase production.
"A well-bred hen will produce an av.
erage of ten dozen eggs year. and
for the small flock, which derives its
maintenance from the home tables, a
gain of So head would be realized.
"Ten hens will keep an average fam
lily in eggs for year, and perhaps pro-
duce few extra ones for sale. A hen
needs but square rod of space, and a
backyard three rods by four rods will
keep ten hens, and piano box sup
plies all the required shelter. Lawn
clippings will do for green food"

STATE FURNISHES CULTURES
Federal Supply Runs Out, but Bacteri-
illogical Laboratory at East
Lansing Is Saving Day for
Michigan.

East Lansing, Mich.-Under pressure
of the demand being made upon them
for food and more food, Michigan farm
ers are expected this season to devote
more ground than commonly to alfalfa
and leguminous crops generally, but
their success, In the case Of alfalfa, at
least, will be good or otherwise only II
the seed or soil Is inoculated with the
right kind of bacteria.
These bacteria, which are principally
furnished to the farmer in the form of
cultures, are secured usually from the
United States department of agricul-
ture and the meteorological depart
ment of the Michigan Agricultural col
lege, but this spring the Michigan in
stitution will be compelled to meet the
demand alone, for notices sent out from
Washington a few days ago announce
that the federal bacteriologists will not
fill any more orders until July l. The
crop campaign, 1t is said, has practi-
cally cleaned them out of the nodule-
forming bugs"
Still, the M. A. c. laboratory is ex-
pected to prove equal to the occasion,
for while 1000 or more cultures have
already been sent to various parts of
the state, there is reported to be a
supply on hand adequate, ut least, for
Michigan's requirements.
Two Methods Of incubation.
Two methods of incubation are en-
ployed. One of these consists in mix
ing the alfalfa or clover seed, as the
case may be, with the bacterial culture.
The other, known as the soil-inocula-
ton method, consists in distributing
over the field to be planted soil from
some field which has produced good
crops of notwithstanding legumes.
Where soil is used, 800 or 400 pounds
of soil from the old alfalfa or clover
field are put on each acre of the new
field, either by running ii through n

planned, potash is too expensive to
warrant its general use for potatoes.
Nitrogen also is high in price, and
should be used only sparingly and with
judgment, but when a clover or alfalfa
sod is plowed under the percentage OF
nitrogen need not be very great. A
fertilizer containing from 2 to A per
cent of nitrogen and from 8 to II per
cent of phosphoric acid is desirable for
the potato crop under present condi-
lions.
'When a clover or alfalfa sod is
plowed under, from $50 to 500 pounds
Of acid phosphate per acre will do, but
If no manure has been applied to the
sod, 200 or $50 pounds of fertilizer con-
tanning 2 per cent OF nitrogen and from
8 to 10 per cent of phosphoric acid may
be used in addition to the acid phos-
phate. Acid phosphate may be used
with profit in larger quantities on
heavier soils than on light ones.
