This can be sown as early in the
spring as the ground can be plowed.
The field on which the rape is to
be sown should be put in good con-
dition in order to secure success
with the crop. Some farmers pre-
fer a mixture of rape and oats sown
at the rate of two bushels of oats
and four pounds of rape to the acre.
This mixture can also be sown as
soon as the ground is ready to plow.
These pastures can be followed later
on with other such as clover, alfalfa
and Sudan grass for July and Au-
gust, according to Professor Good.

Profitable Hog Raising
Requires Pasture Feed

In order to practice the most
profitable system Of feeding hogs it
is necessary to have some early
spring pasture on which to turn the
animals while they are being fed
grain, according to Prof. E. S. Good,
head of the animal hushandry de-
partment Of the Kentucky State Col
lege of Agriculture. The best early
spring pasture is rye sown the fall
before, but if farmers do not have
this the first pasture to sow in the
spring is Dwarf Essex Rape at the
rate of eight pounds to the acre.

Doubles shooting is gaining great
popularity among trapshooters OF this

they fall Ia the ground, firing one load
