HOW TO PIECE OUT THE PAS
TURE SITUATION

One thing that might be done to
help out the pasture situation, says
w. L. Cavert of the extension serv-
ice, is to sow small grain and sweet
clover together as early in the sea-
son as possible. A suitable mixture
would be two bushels of oats and
IL pounds of scarified sweet clover.
Such small grain and sweet clover
mixture, he says, could be expected
to provide fair pasture by June 15.
Sudan grass could be sown to pro-
vide pasture between July and frost,
but Minnesota farmers have not had
much experience with it and hesitate
to try it. Sudan grass should be
seeded about May Is and livestock
should be kept off the field until the
plants have made a good growth.
Dwarf Essex rape makes an excellent
pasture for hogs and sheep. 1t
should be seeded as early in the
spring as possible at the rate of about
five pounds to the acre. An acre Of
rich ground will easily provide pas
ture for three sows and their filters.
Seed expense for this crop is compar-
atively light and the pasture lasts UNI
til the ground freezes up.

the present banking laws will not be
along the lines of guaranteeing or
insuring depositors against loss, but
along other lines, such as giving the
state more control and holding the
officers and directors of state banks
to greater care in handling the money
in their hands.
A move to avert the impending war
between the senate and the admins
tration over the educational appro-
priations bill was launched late last
week when group of sixteen sena-
tors, half of whom belong to the adj
ministration camp and the others to
the ants or Independents, held an in
formal meeting for the purpose of
working out tentative program by
which to restore harmony.
Attending the meeting were eight
senator's of group which has in
sisted that the state appropriate suf-
ficient state aid funds to pay up de-
felt of $1,359,436 incurred in 1928
1924, as well as make 100 per cent
appropriation for the coming bien-
mum.
Getting around a table and discus
sing the matter from both angles, the
senators ended by working out ten
tative procedure which they felt
would give the schools necessary state
aid without over-running the $4,000
900 budget limit set by the governor.
The plan which gained considerable
favor among both groups is to issue
certificates of Indebtedness to pay up
the state aid deficits for the last four
years. This includes the $1,359,436 of
1923-1924 and $912,5OS for 1925-1926,
or total of $2,271,944.
By paying up the deficits, it was be-
lieved that the schools would then be
able to do without 100 per cent ap-
preparation for the coming biennium,
and the senators agreed that instead
of granting the full amount totaling
nearly $14,000,000, it would be suffi-
cient to appropriate the amount set
in the budget, $11, 100000 for the two
years. While the total recommended
several days ago by the senate fiance
committee would have exceeded the
governors figure by more than $4,-
100000, these reductions would bring
the amount nearer his figure.

One reason why the house was sc
ready to turn down the senate resolu-
ton was it's feeling of bitterness
against the senate because of num-
Der of things that have happened
lately. One of these is a disposition
on the part of the senate to skip on
the calendar house bills, putting them
off till later. The house has retaliat-
ed by skipping senate bills. The re-
suit of this will mean, if continued,
the failure of much legislation. 1t
may be taken for granted, however,
that the two houses will cease this
sort of childplay.
On Thursday, the senate killed the
Nebraska bank guaranty bill, spon-
sored by several Farmer-Labor sena-
tors. Senator James A. Carley, who
was one of special committee that
went to Nebraska to get information,

REAL WORK NECESSARY TO GET
A GOOD LAWN

A. L. Larson, seed analyst sta
toned by the State Department of
Agriculture at University Farm, adj
vises the home owner to mix his own
lawn seed in the proportions of 5 per
cent of white clover, Is to 20 per cent
of perennial rye, so per cent of Ken
lucky blue grass, and % to 80 per cent
of red top. Blue grass takes its time
in terminating, usually about three
weeks, but the other seeds sprout
quickly and will furnish a green COW
ering for the newly seeded lawn while
the blue grass is coming along. Blue
grass flourishes in limestone, but is
adapted to all this region and does
not have to be coddled.
A roller is almost as necessary for
the lawn as the mower, says Mr.. Lar
son. For best results the soil should
be rich and of sandy-loam texture,
and should be worked over until it
is mellow and smooth. After the seed
has been sown the ground should be
raked lightly and then we'll watered
for at least three weeks. Weeds can
be controlled by studying their char
acteristics and acting promptly. Crab
grass, which appears about the mid
die of July, is often very troublesome,
but it can be kept out by preventing
the development of seeds and by SOW
ing more of the lawn grass mixture
and fertilizing. ii
While most lawns, like Topsy, just
grow, Mr.. Larson warns that the SUI
perior lawn is such because it has
been given intelligent care and at
tention.
