USING TEMPORARY PASTURES
One Advantage for Sheep Raising Is
Improvement Of Soil, Especially
With Legumes.

One advantage in using temporary
pastures for sheep raising Is the i'm
prOvement of the soil, say specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. The greatest demand
upon the soil is avoided by not requir-
ing the crops to mature seed All the
manure is distributed upon the
ground, together with all uneaten
parts Of the crop. With legume for
ages the gain to the soil is especially
valuable and allows production of still
larger crops which are again returned
to the land diminished only by the
materials contained in the increased
size of lambs or ewes while on that
particular crop.

Cholera is always dreaded at any

knows. The only safe way is to be
careful to keep everything clean
around the pens and allow no chance
for the infection.
The serum treatment is pre-

starts it is too late to save the herd.

Rate of Sowing.

The best method for the production
of seed is to SOW in rows about three
feet apart, with the seeds from two to
three inches apart in the row. AL
though a corn planter may be used for
sowing in this way, the most practical
method is to use the ordinary grain
drill, stopping part Of the grain cups
so as to leave the rows about three
feet apart and setting the drill the
same as when sowing about two bush
els of wheat to the acre.

Gov jeas should not be soWn until
the soil has become thoroughly
warmed and all danger of cold wealth
er is past. After that time they can
be sown whenever moisture conditions
are favorable. When sown in cold,
wet soil, cowpea seed will either rot
or give poor stand of unhealthy
plants. The latest date for profitable
sowing, however, is at least 30 days
before the first killing frost.
The time of sowing will depend
largely upon the purpose for which
the crop is grown. If grown for seed
or hay, the seed should be sOwn short
ly after the corn crop. For green
manuring, pasturage or hay, cowpeas
sown as late as the first of August in
the South will make considerable
growth. When cOwpeas are to follow
wheat or oats, they should be sown at
the earliest possible moment after the
crop is cut

inches apart. The grain drill set to
SOW about one and One-half bushels of
wheat to the acre will be found most
satisfactory. If grown for siage with
corn, the corn and cowpeas can be
sown in one operation, using the Ordi-
nary corn planter. If coWpeas are
sown in corn at the last cultivation,
the common practice Is to sow the
seeds broadcast at the rate of l to II
bushels to the acre and cover them
with cultivator.
Another Method.
Another method is to SOW with a
one-horse wheat drill at the rate Of
about A. pounds to the acre, sowing
two or three rows of cOwpeas between
the rows Of corn. COwpeas and corn
are sometimes sown thiCkly together
for hay with excellent results, using
about One-haf TO one bushel of corn
and one bushel of cOwpeas to the acre.
However, when corn makes a very
heavy growth cowpeas will not give
very good results on account of the
shade and lack of moisture.
The quantity of seed to be sown to
the acre varies according to the
method of sowing. With rows "A to
40 inches apart, about 80 to 40 pounds
of seed to the acre will be required.
When sown broadcast for hay, green
