Peas are expensive, but seem to be
essential to the best results, espe-

Teanuts, cowpeas and dried garden
peas give quite good results and some

RED CLOVER CAN
Be S0WN EARLY
Many Farmers Plant as Early as
February, Even While Snow
Is On Ground.
SEED SELECTION IMPORTANT
Plant Is Hardy and Not Injured by
Ordinary Cold, and Sowing May Be
Done While Other Farm Work
Is Comparatively Slack.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Red clover has been styled the cor
ner stone of agriculture in the North
Central and Eastern states.
Many farmers will begin laying the
corner stone as early as February,
when 1t Is customary in many sections
to SOW red clover on the surface of the
snow, so that it will sink into the soil
with the first thaw in the spring. Red
clover is hardy, and is not injured by
ordinary cold; and the fact that it can
be sown at season when work on the
farm is comparatively light adds to
the economy Of its cultivation.
The first important point to be OBJ
served is the selection of good Seed
say specialists of the United States
Department Of Agriculture. Consider
able care should be used in this re-
spect well in advance of the time Of
seeding. This is particularly true at
present when large proportion Of
the red clover seed used in the United
States comes from abroad. If poor
seed is used the expected crop may be
partial or total failure.
Good Seed Is Plump.
Good red clover seed is plump or
well filled, bright with a slight luster,
the color Of individual seeds ranging
from violet to light yellow. The indi-
vidual seeds should be at least me-
I dunn sized and fairly uniform, free Of
adulterants of any kind and from
seeds Of noxious weeds.
Home-g grown seed is desirable, espe-
cially in the North, because it is al
most certain to be adapted to local
conditions. If it is not available. sam

may be bought to advantage, their
value depending entirely upon their
quality and condition, but as a. rule
only sound grains in good condition
should be fed to poultry, and moldy
grains should never be used The
locally grown grains, which poultry
will eat freely, may generally be used
to the best advantage, say poultry spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. A scratch mix
ture, consisting of whole or cracked
grains, made of a combination of any
two or more of those mentioned, can
be fed TO advantage. 1t is not advis-
able to feed continuously any single
grain, especially corn. f..,
A mash made of ground grains, mill
products, and meat scrap should be
fed usually in addition to the scratch
mixture. Cornmeal, wheat bran, wheat
middlings, and meat scrap form the
basis of good mash, while corn, chop,
corn-and@cob meal ground oats, and
low-grade flour may be added or sub
stituted TO advantage. Just as good
results can be obtained from simple
mash, containing three or. four ground
grains and meat scrap, as from a high
ly complicated mash, containing ten
or twelve products.
A large number of commercial mix.
lures, both of scratch grains and Of
ground grains, are prepared for poul-
try feeds, but the value of mixed COM
nercial feed depends upon the COM
position and the quality of the grains
used in its preparation. If a poultry
raiser does not produce any grain and
keeps comparatively small number
Of fowls, it is often better for him to
buy commercial mixed feeds. The
a 7erage farmer, however, should feed
omegrown grains, supplemented with
mill feeds and meat scrap, and the
large poultryman usually can mix his
Cwn feeds to best advantage. When
two or three kinds of grain are raised,
and ground or mill feeds are not read
ny available, good results can be OBJ
ttined by feeding only the grains,
provided they are supplemented with
sleat scrap or milk. .'
