August

Recently the writer had the oppor-
tunity of visiting a farm near Terry
on the Buffalo Rapids project that
had an 8-acre pasture on it which
was seeded in April, 1947, and has
been grazed two seasons. The re-
turns obtained from this pasture
have exceeded that possible from
most any other crop that can be
grown in Montana.
A Huntley mixture plus 1 pound
of ranger alfalfa per acre was seed
ed. The Huntley mixture consists
of smooth bronze grass, 3h pounds;
Kentucky bluegrass, S pounds; Or
chard grass, 5 pounds; meadow fes-
cue, 3k pounds; white clover, liz
pounds, and alfalfa, IL pounds per
acre.
The land is a sandy loan soil and
had been leveled. A green manure
crop was turned under to improve
the physical condition of the soil
and bring the heavily leveled spots
into production quickly. In addition
to the green manure, 100 pounds per
acre of superphosphate was drilled
into the land prior to planting. The
pasture was planted with a nurse
crop of Glacier barley. The barley
was cut for grain. 1t was irrigated

not pastured after the grain crop
was taken off. The first season of
grazing was in 1913. The record of
two years grazing follows:
SOS Cash Per Acre
In 1913 the pasture wa grazed by
80 head of yearlings, mixed steers
and heifers, for 100 days. The aver
age daily gain per head was 1.9
pounds. The total gain in pounds
of beef per acre for the period was
855 pounds. The cattle sold for "a
cents per pound, so the gain per
acre credited to the pasture amount
ed to $205.20 per acre.
In addition to this cash value, the
pasture grew faster than. it was
grazed m June so 81 tons of hay
were cut on June 80. The same sea-
son 40 head Of 250-pound calves
were grazed from Sept. l 10 Oct. l

The 1949 season was very similar
