| There is no. more valuable legume
grown for cover crop and land i'm
provement purposes than crimson
clover. It should be sown early and be
sown in corn field at the last cultiva-
ton of the corn. It is one Of the best
winter cover crops. It adds nitrogen
and humus to the land.
With the addition ofphosphatic fer
tilizer, corn can be grown on the
same land for years in succession
with continued increase Of the crop
and Improvement of the land.
There is place on every farm for
crimson clover. For grazing in early
spring for dairy cows, it is the best
that can be had. The hay when prop
erly saved is said to be as good for
cattle as alfalfa.
We hope every farmer in our ter
ritory who had crimson clover grow
ing this spring made arrangements to
save some seed. One Of the great
drawbacks in the last few years has
been the high price of the seed, ow-
ing to the European supply being cut
off. Let US save our seed at home
and be sure of them. It will pay and
also bring the price down for those
who have not this crop in their rota-
ton.
Crimson clover is one of the crops
which comes in every grazing system
for hogs. Do not let the season go
by without seeding as large an area
as possible to this crop.

shoats plus some corn equals big
profits in farm arithmetic" That is
the way j. C. McAmis, crop special
list, Division of Extension, University
Of Tennessee, puts it.
Mr.. McAmis gives the following
very close estimate Of the results OBJ
tanned by one Tennessee farmer. He
turned 100 shoats, each weighing loo
pounds in a seven acre field of alfalfa
on March "a. They were fed three
ears of corn per head each day and
each hog gained an average Of .85
pounds per day for 80 days. The al
falfa produced two and one-half tons
of hay to the acre besides the pas
ture for the shoats. Count the profit
on this field for yourself at today's
prices Of pork and hay. Many acres
of alfalfa scattered throughout the
State have yielded sixty dollars to
eighty dollars in pork after the mar
ket price Of thescorn was deducted.
Alfalfa is the best summer pasture
crop for hogs that has been found.
Here are reasons given by Mr.. Nc
Amis:
/. The high cost Of fencing forces
most of us to have small pastures;
especially if we are beginners and
must make new fences. To pay the
fencing cost, crop is demanded that
produces high yields and carries the
maximum number Of hogs. Alfalfa
fills the bill completely. It will carry
from twelve to eighteen shoats to the
acre.
2. Your costly hog fence must be
in use as many days of the year as
possible. The best crop is hardy
continuous grower both early ant
late. Alfalfa is grazed from April tt
late October.
8. Forage for hog must Away:

that it originates with the showmen

whereat they pledged themselves to
abolish Hawaiian dancers, gypsies,
