GRAZING LIVE STOCK
IMPROVES THE Land
livestock Growing and Coll Improve
rlent Go Hand In Hand.

1.-THE soil likes to have livestock |
harvest the crops 1t produces, and the
animals like to do the work." says
D. J. BIrleson, forage crop specialist,
Extension Division, Louisiana State
University. Grazing is good for both
the soil and the stock, and the farmer
who allows his farm animals to har-
vest some OF their feed has two sources
OF prcfit.
THAT cell is made more productive
by allowing hogs to harvest their own
feed is shown by an experiment con.
Quoted ct the Arkansas Experiment
Station. A field was divided into four
! sections. Peanuts, Soy peans, chufas
and corn were planted, one crop In
each section. All the crops, except the
corn, were grazed by hogs. The next
year cotton was planted on all four
sections, and the whole field received
) the same treatment.
1.-THE number of pounds Of seed
cotton produced per acre on each SEQ
ton was as follows:
After peanuts, grazed. LII pounds
After soy beans. erased, 1857
pounds.
after chufas. grazed. 1900 pounds
after corn, not grazed. 1,005 pounds
1.-THE peanuts and soy beans, beini
. legumes, improved the land more thai
the chufas did. The section whicl
grew the corn was left poorer thai
| either of the others, because the GRO
was removed and there were no an
f mails to deposit the fertility back o
the land.
IF we are to improve our soils, q
i even keep them as fertile as they mo-
e are. we must feed our land and ou
livestock at the same time. which 81

ticles Of the Body.

When a valuable hog dies of chole-
70 or valuable horse or mule Of
charbon, the owner is apt to lose all
interest in the carcass. He dumps
1t into the nearest stream, forgetting
or lot realizing that the body is
reething with germs of the disease
that caused the animals death ana
that 1t is a prolific source of infection
for hin neighbors' animals further
down the stream.
"The safest way to dispose Of tho
carcass is to burn it where death oc.
Cured" says Dr. w. H. Dalrymple OF
the Louisiana State University. ITO
bury is dangerous, as particles of the
body containing the disease germs are
apt to lie left uncovered. Also, un-
less the body is buried very deep, it
is apt to be excavated by hungry
dogs.
The carcass should never be
dragged, as particles Of infected flesh
are sure to be left on the ground. II
the dead body must be moved, place
It on sled or the like. Care must
then be taken not to allow any blood
or discharges to remain. The safest
plan is to plug up the natural open.
ings Of the body with cotton satur-
ated with disinfectant
"All carcasses should be viewed
with suspicion and treated as out
lined above, whether disease symp
toms are noticeable or not. Animals
often die of charbon without any out
side swelling"
