Order Garden Seed Early

Lexington. KY. Nov. 29.-The
Kentucky farmer who wants to
raise the best garden in his neigh
borhood will take time to figure how
much seed will be needed for the
different kinds of vegetables in 1921
season and will order these seed
from some good reliable mail-order
seed house. 1t is the hit and miss
gardener that is willing to take a
chance on picking up any old kind
of garden seed and planting it ex-
pecting tor have a large crop of vege-
tables. Various tests and expert
ments have been conducted which
show conclusively that certain varie-
ties Of vegetables will do we'll in
the State ofsKentucky while other
varieties will not. and the College of
Agriculture is ready to give out
this information. as they have made
extensive tests which will enable
the farmers to know good varieties
of vegetables.
The farmers garden should be the
richest spot on the farm, as 1t is
annually called upon to produce
enormous quantities throughout the
growing season. In order to do
this 1t is necessary to have a good
rich soil and to have good garden
seen. The, seed can be enriched by
sowing cover crop in the winter
and blowing 1t under the following
spring. This will help to increase
the humus and enable the garden to
produce as much as It should. BY
@ icing the seed early and select
ing good well-known and tried
varieties, the garden can well be de-
pended upon to produce the maxi
mum crop of vegetables which
should be found ON every farm in
Kentucky in order that the people
may have the desired vegetables
during the growing season with
enough to store away for the win
ter.

Protect Your Fruit Trees From
Rabbits

Lexington, KY, Nov. 29.-Far-
mers of Kentucky are urged not to
forget the young fruit trees and pro-
tect them from rabbits and other
rodents that may gnaw the bark
during the winter season. There
are several means of protecting
trees from this injury. A small
piece of wire netting can be fasten-
ed around the tree so that 1t will
be impossible for a rabbit to peel
them, corn stalks or tobacco stalks
can be tied around the tree, which
will also serve as a means of pro-
lection. There are several forms
OF tree protection on the market
that can be bought, one is thin
veneer board, which can be fastened
to the tree and insures protection.
In case the wire netting is used and
II 1t is cut large enough SO that it
will make a band IL inches in dia-
meter around the tree, 1t should
protect the trees for several years.
If corn or tobacco stalks are tied
with wire, be sure and remove this
wire the next season. as this is very
liable to cut into the bark and cause
an injury which may mean the life
of the tree. The thin veneer board
is very satisfactory but as a rule.
do not last more than one sea son.
There are also repellants on the
market. some are good and some
are bad.
The Horticulture Department OF
the College of Agriculture has found
that it is much more satisfactory to
use some means of protecting the
trunk Of young trees than to depend
upon commercial paints and solu-
tons which are supposed to act as

ed to the one outlined above, so that
for every 1000 pounds of weight 10
pounds Of grain is fed per day.
may summarize by saying:
/. Feed idle horses mainly on
.roughage.
2. Feed the roughage which the
farm produces.
8. Add grain only to keep horse
in fair flesh.
4. Use the cheaper concentrates,
as corn or molasses.
: S. If leguminous hay is available
less grain is needed.
6. Avoid the ready-mixed sweet
feeds as they are too expensive for
their nutritive value.
The Hartford herald. [volume] (Hartford, Ky.) 1875-1926, 1920-12-08

from one season to the next is to use
the available roughage on the farm
Pasture first, even if rye must be
sown for the purpose, than the
cheaper roughages as straw, slower
timothy, clover and alfalfa. Nc
grain is needed with clover and al
falfa, and only a small amount with
slower and timothy.
Some use may be made of cotton
seed meal when it is available at a
cost not to exceed cents a pound.
A 1000 pound horse can use 1
pound daily without danger. A bet
Ter rich protein feed is linseed meal,
but it is too expensive to feed work
stock.
In those sections where niolasses
is available and cheap, a substitu-
ton for corn can be made. The
amount to use is. perhaps, a little
more than 1 pound Of molasses for
each pound of corn, The molasses
may be diluted with water and the
straw or hay dampened with it. or
the molasses may be mixed direct
with meal or bran. In some warm
climates the only liquid which work.
stock are allowed to drink is water
containing small per cent of
molasses. Little or no grain is fed.
as the sweet water furnishes the
carbohydrates needed. There seems
no reason why much greater use of
cheap molasses cannot be made in
feeding horses than has been made
in the past.
II is true the so-called sweet feed
composed of alfalfa meal and grain
screenings is used extensively, but
1t is the most expensive ration posi-
BILE. Horses like it. and when fed
enough of it, do we'll ON it, but at
$75 per ton 1t is not to be consider
ed as a feed on the farm. II good
cane molasses can be bought for less
than 2 cents per pound and used
with farm straws and stovers,
really cheap ration results to the
farmer
1t may be well to observe that
horses do not require either for
work or for a maintenance ration

bran with about 16 per cent protein.
is all the system of the horse de-
mands. This is why larger use
of cottonseed meal cannot be made
in feeding horses.
1t must be noted that what has
been said refers to feeding hois SEES
that are to be idle this winter AS

proaches the horse should be con-
ditioned by gradually receiving more

How To Feed The Horses Thi
Winter

Winter
In April, 1916, the widely cir
sulated slogan, Food will win the
war" focused attention ON the
worlds need of food. The Ameri
can farmer set about with character
istic vigor the task of not only pro-
ducinS the food, but also of saving
ii.
lie found lat he could not cut
ot, OF CSC" cut down, the ration al
bseI his hogs or his cows, 20: IN
so doing he diminished their pro
duction of pork or of milk. He took
lust little from himself and a still
smaller amount from his fanny, but
he could not continue even the
small reduction for long, and he had
TO be contented to save food by sub
Etitution. He could eat what could
not be shipped to our Allies or to
bur army. But he found the horse
and the mule could live on a re-
duced ration. 1t was here he made
the greatest saving.
: The crops of 1916. 1917 and 1918
we're made, venture to say, on the
least possible amount of grain which
the work-stock could live and labor
with. In many sections horses and
mules worked in the fields during
the day and got their entire sub
Sistence from pasture at night. IL
grain was fed in most cases, it was
not an adequate diet.
To still further economic on feed
mares were not bred, and large
cart of the crop of foals were cut
Off. Young work-stock had to con-
tribute their share in the general
economy and were compelled TO
grow on grass and roughage.
The effect of all this is to make
xork-stock scarce and high-priced.
There is more or less OF horse
famine Just ahead. There must be
4 Large number OF horses used on
the farms. Nothing can take the
place of them on the small. uneven
farms, or on the ones with great
rainfall. In the last five years horse
xGd mule production has dropped
al 10 such an extent. the young
york animals are hard to find to re-
place the older ones.
