FORMULA FOR PERMANENT
PASTURE GRASSES
Eicld md Enrm =

Field and Farm
Some Of the ranchers always keep q
certain amount Of their land in per
manrnt pasture, using a combination
Of grasses. something like this: fifteen
pounds Of orchard grass, ten pounds
OF English bluegrass, two pounds Of
whit" clover, ten pounds Of Kentucky
bluegrass. and four pounds Of alsikc
clover, or Ey" pounds Of alfalfa seed
TO tn" acre. Alfalfa is usually pre-
fcrr'd on light upland. but white clo-
yer Is always d"srabi" IN permanent
or long me pastures. The orchard
grass and English bluegrass and al
falfa will furnish most Of tho grazing
for the first three or four years. but
Kentucky bluegrass and white clover
will perhaps eventually replace the
other grasses and. while they will not
b" so productive. they arr more cndur-

TINE TO PLAN FOR
NEXT YEARS GARDEN
Transportation Congestion May Cut
Down Market Supplics-Demand
For Seed May Cause Shortage

Colorado State Agricultural College,
In few weeks the preliminary work
for the early spring garden will be on
hand. Will you be ready for it? II
not, why not prepare for that time in
advance by deciding upon what you
should plant to supply your table with
fresh vegetables this coming season.
Owing to the lack of proper railroad
transportations, it will be practically
impossible for good, fresh vegetables
to be shipped into most Of our local
markets. Hence, the need Of small
backyard garden. Also this need will
add an extra drain on the commercial
seedman's supplies. A grave short
age of good seed now seems certain.
The wise man will order his garden
seed now.

Don't Send Food

Large quantities of the food sent to
the soldiers and sailors in the camps

injurious to the health of the men.
The Council of National Defense.
therefore, has requested the public
to discontinue the sending and has
asked the Colorado Council of Defense
to aid in stopping the practice. Album
dant food is supplied to all the camps,
the state council is advised. The ag-
gregate quantity Of food sent to the
men privately is enormous. Much Of
it is conveyed long distances in heated
express or mail cars and becomes
