HAY AND PASTURE
LIKELY TO BE SHORT

"The last two seasons have been par
ticularly hard on forage crops. The
dry season of 1917 left many fields of
new seeding in bad shape last fall, and
the winter has not been favorable to
good stands of grass. For this reason
hay and pasture both are likely to be
short during the coming season." says
Andrew Boss, vice director of the Min
nesota experiment station
TO meet any emergency of this kind
farmers will do well to SOW early in the
spring from two to two and one-half
bushels of oats, or a mixture of oats
and wheat which can be cut in the
green stage either with a binder or a
mower and cured as hay. Where pas
lures are needed badly, a mixture of
two bushels of oats, two pounds of rape
and two pounds Of medium red clover
or sweet clover can be sown with the
grain at seeding time, preferably with
the early maturing crops, like barley.
This will give very good pasture crop
in the fall
ssGood forage and pastures are large
factors in reducing the cost of livestock
production, and those who are short of
permanent hay and pasture crops will
do well to consider these possible sub
