PLANT LOW PLACES TO MEADOW
 GRASSES.

Fayetteville, July 9.-(SpeciaD - Many low spots in cotton and corn fields planted to other cultivated crops in Arkansas, would furnish much greater returns if planted to a meadow is the opinion of A. D. McNear, spec ialist in farm management of the Ex- tension Division, College of Agricul ture, University of Arkansas.
 Hay is the easiest of all crops to produce and yet it is sadly neglected on the average far1n," says MT. Me Nair, "This low land on many farms, if planted to hay grasses, will fur nish enough hay to feed the animals of the average farmer and save paying out money for a product that can so easily be raised at home"
 After making an economic survey of about 80 farms in Lee county, MT McNair found that the hay consumed by the work animals of the farmer was small and in many cases the farm CTS were buying hay when they could have raised it on these low spots which are so unproftable in cultivated crops.
 These low areas can be set to timo- thy or red top easily provided the ground is plowed late in summer and narrowed to kill weeds and grasses advises MT. McNear. Seed should be sown in September, Either crop will produce good yields the next year. Two crops can be secured from the land by sowing lespedeza on the tim othy or red top in March of the next spring. Lespedeza should be sown at the rate of one bushel or less to the acre. By this procedure the timothy or red top can be cut in June and the |lespedeza in September or October. Timothy or red top and les pedeza will yield more than a ton of hay to the acre, making . total of two tons or more when the two crops are sown. At the present retail price of hay, these crops would be worth $75 an acre or more. This Is a good return from land that is often wasted and the outlay of labor is very small.
