ALFALFA PASTURE
BENEFITS GIVEN
CLOSE STUDY Y

DAVIS, Calf, Jan. 17.-Whether
pasturing alfalfa gives as good re-
suits as cutting the stand for hay,
and whether the longevity of the
field is reduced by pasturing, is be-
ing determined in a series of tests
being made by II. r. Guilbert and
Prof. w. NJ. Regain of the Animal
Husbandry Division of the Univer-
sity of California College of Agri-
culture here.
The claim has been made that the
pasturing of alfalfa results in pre-
mature cutting of the plants, there
by reducing their vitality. and that
the trampling of the cattle con
tributes to the injury. On the othe.
hand, it has been contended by some
that pasturing is the economical
way of feeding. To find the facts,
the experiment was started two
years ago, and work will be con-
tinued through several seasons
more.
The effect of pasturing is being
studied with relation to the long
evity of the stand, the penetration
Of irrigation water and weed
growth. The effect of the stage of
cropping is being noted as to the
quantity and quality of forage, and
the longevity of the stand. Records
are being made on the carrying
capacity Of alfalfa, and Sudan
grasses as well, and on the gains
in live weight. In the case of Sudan
grass, seeded each year, the long
evity of stand does not figure so
greatly, the study there being main
ly in the economies of the method
of feeding.
Eight half-acre pastures have
been fenced. The cattle are alter
mated by the two field system, each
three weeks. The field is irrigated
as soon as the cattle are taken off
and put into another, and again q
week before they are turned back.
1t has been found that three beef
cattle, averaging 1000 pounds, can
be carried easily on an acre, with
a daily average gain of about one
pound per day per animal, from
May until the last of October.
Two years of study indicate /
that there is no difference In the
longevity of the stand under pasture
or haying methods. 1t has been
found, however, that the first crop
usually is too rank for the cattle
to clean up well. The study also is
being made of the nutrients and
digestiveness of the forage under
the two methods of cropping.

$l,425, 100000. In this way we have
helped the other countries most ef
fectively toward further recovery.
"Our state and municipal govern
ments continue to expand indebted
ness and as the burden of taxation
increases, such increase is written
into the cost Of living, which other.
wise might have been appreciably
lowered during the past three years.
Nationally the year as a whole
has been satisfactory for business.
Many lines have prospered greatly,
including iron and steel, copper, mo-
tor and motor equipment, building,
retail chain stores. and farm ma
chinery. Other commodities, such as
coal, textiles, shipping and petrole-
um have been equal to or above nor
NAL, but with prices unimproved.
Southern California
In our own area the year has
treated the merchants. the indus
trialists and the producers extremely
we'll, with the important exception
of the grape and peach growers.
''Oil prices have not been chang
ed materially during the year. The
California production for the year
has been approximately 232,000,000
barrels, as against 230,751, ,00O bar
relS for 1927.
"The traffic through the harbor
shows a value of S950,000,000 against
$SSS.000,000 for 1927.
"The present indications are that
production in the moving picture in
dustry is to have a very good year.
The growth in our area continues
at rapid pace. The national con-
Germs, more and more. are giving
recognition to the community as de-

cOrding to an announcement made
today by S. E. Robinson, president

station. We anticipate large
crowd.''

tive organization anyway, our
friends are asked to bring their own
cups.'
