tivation. If the seed are broadcasted,
cultivation by harrow is recommended.
Cultivation should be frequent and
shallow.
Phe Dwarf Essex variety is especial
Iy recommended as 1t is of quicker
growth and will stand more grazing
than the old type. If planted late
in September on well prepared seed
bed, top dressed with a high grade
vegetable fertilizer, mixed well into
the soil before planting, it will give
excellent results.
The mistake is frequently made of
turning stock on the crop too early,
before il. gets good start, and pas
turing it too closely.
A rape field should be fenced into
two or more sections in order that
the stock may be alternated back and
forth, enabling the plots to recuper-
ate after close grazing.
