individual seeds, and an ordinary
rate of seeding in Ohio is 10 pounds
to the acre. The Harrison county
agricultural agent believes that, If
the soil was properly lined and pre-
pared for the reception of the seed,
less seed per acre could be safely
used and part of the expense of
extra care for the soil could be
saved in the decreased cost of seed.
Twenty seeds planted for each one
expected to sprout is not the only
safety measure used in seeding Ohio
meadows. An ordinary practice is
to mix alfalfa or timothy or both
with the clover seed. A pound of
timothy seed contains four or five
times as many seeds as a pound of
clover does so a mixture of the two
furnishes more than 100 seeds to
the square foot of soil.
Alfalfa requires soil with plenty
of lime but it will succeed some
years when clover fails. Timothy is
almost certain to produce some sort
of a stand of grass so a seeding
mixture of red clover, alfalfa, and
J timothy is excellent insurance that
the sower will have a meadow the
| year after seeding.
, Alfalfa and timothy will survive
| in the meadow and make excellent
: hay in years after the red clover
/ has disappeared. Work at the ex-
4 pertinent stations has shown that
: timothy grown in mixture with
alfalfa has a higher feeding value
than timothy grown alone, and the
a alfalfa itself provides excellent feed
for all types of livestock.
: Mr.. Applegate recommends that
/ until Ohio soils have been prepared
so the production of clover ano
| alfalfa is more certain, farmers use
seed mixture. Ten pounds of clover
and alfalfa combined and three
pounds of timothy is about right
| The proportion of clover and alfalfa
can be varied so there is more OF
one than the other, depending upon
the price of seed and the type of
! soil.
Early seedlings can be made with
hand seeder but late seedlings are
more likely to be successful if they
are drilled because the seed must be
covered if it is to sprout. Too deep
planting lessons the chances for sue
cess because a crust may form on
the soil surface and prevent the
grass seedlings from breaking
through.

Farmers Desert Noon
As A Planting Guide

Most Ohio farmers no longer
watch the calendar or almanac so
they can have the moon on their
side when sowing grass seed but
they still use methods of seeding
which prevent from 80 to 80 clover
seeds out of each 100 planted from
ever seeing the light of day, accord
ing TO V. G.. Applegate, agricultural
agent in Harrison county.
Grass seed. sown in the dark OF
the moon was once supposed to have
a marked advantage over that sown
in the light of the moon because the
seeds sown in the gloomy period
were able to work their way into
the soil but the others remained on
the surface and failed to sprout
This theory has been discounted by
experiments but the fact still re-
mains that high percentage of the
clover seed sown does not sprout.
Farmers understand the reluctance
of clover seed to grow and try t.
circumvent the difficulty by plant
ing approximately 100 seeds on eaci
square foot of soil, when five or 81,
plants to the square foot make al
excellent stand of clover. The SAM
theory is used by the Goldfish, whicl
lays eggs indiscriminately in the Sc
and is perpetuated because, if ther
are enough eggs, there always vii
be some Goldfish.

pound of clover seed contains 10000

five miles north from the routes in

Dush said the malady has become
quite prevalent among western
horses but has not yet reached Ohio
animals. In an effort to curb the
disease in this area, Dush said a
state veterinary has secured a new
vaccine which can be used both as a
preventive and treatment.
The county agent said there is
nothing to be gained by preventing
western horses from entering Ohio
as the disease is carried by insects
and birds and not directly from one
horse to another.
