Poor drainage Is one cause for winter-killing. It Is a common saying that alfalfa will not grow with "wet feet." and ia land which is not well drained the crop will either drown out or heave out ia the course of a few seasons. A deep loose seedbed is an unfavorable "I 1 ,.".S;o, , , s , -v- v, N - Splendid Field of Alfalfa. condition for starting alfalfa, and the young plants in such a seedbed are likely to dry out or heave out during the first year. Other factors' which have to with decreasing the vitality of alfalfa plants, thus making them more susceptible to winterkilling, are weeds, insects, diseases and animal pests, particularly moles and gophers. The factors named are qualifying factor? which reduce the vitality of tfle alfalfa, making It more likely to winterkill, but even under the most favorable conditions of growth, alfalfa frequently winterkills-in our northern climate, and this is the condition which we desire to investigate. Kinds of Winterkilling Winterkilling is brought about In different ways by the heaving of the soil, by the smothering of the plants under ice, and through the killing of tlie roots by the extreme cold. The heaving of the soil by alternate freezing and thawing lifts tlie root growth, and when the soil thaws, it settles with it. The soil, on freezing, takes a new hold on the roots which are again raised. Thus the alternate freezing and thawing finally draws the roots of the plant out of the ground, sometimes several inches, breaking off the tap root, and in the case of young plants, the roots are frequently thrown out on the surface. Winter rains or winter thaws maycause the fields to become covered with a sheet of ice, which, if it continues long, is almost sure to smother alfalfa or clover, and even grasses and fall grains are liable to injury in this way. The killing by extreme cold is most likely to happen in a dry open winter, and-new seeding?, especially late seedings in which the plants are shallow rooted, and afford little cover, are mofjt likely to-be affected. Often old fields which have been pastured are practically destroyed, while, fields which had considerable fall growth left on the ground are not damaged so much. In the ordinary winter, the protection afforded by a strong fall growth is usually sufficient to prevent any winterkilling. Winter Protection Favored. It is evident that when the conditions are too severe, winter protection, while it may help sxune, will not prevent some winterkilling by which a good stand is thinned or destroyed. Precaution should always be taken, however, to give such winter protection as may be afforded by the growth of . the alfalfa after the last cutting. Too late cutting should be avoided as well as too close pasturing. In fact, it is doubtful whether alfalfa fields should be cut or pastured after September 1. RETAIN FERTILITY QU FARM Much Taken Off That Might Be Returned to Soil if Crops Were Feci to Live Stock. In the marketing of hay and roughage there is a targe bulk to handle end haul to the point of delivery. The United States department of agriculture points cut that this means much extra labor for the men and teams on grain and crop farms, and much fertility is taken off which might be returned to the fields tf the products cy.?re fed to live stock.

:Dlu3 SILAGE TO

DIFFER tea i Feed Any Place Where It Can Be Dene Without Waste. Good Plan to Supply It to Cows In Barns After Milking Has Ceen Completed Net Advisable to Give Too Much to Horse. "Corn silage may be fed out of doors in bunks, in the stall, or in fact any place where animal.-? can eat It without waste," says R. W. Clark of the Colorado Agricultural college. "In feeding milk cows it is a very good plan to give the hay in racks outside or some place where the animals will not waste It. and feed the ensilage in the barn after milking. It may be given twice a day in rations from 10 to 15 pounds at a feeding or 20 to 30 pounds per day. "Some large animals will take as high as 40 to 50 pounds of silage per day and make good use of it.. In feeding fattening stock or steers, silage may be fed twice a day in smaller rations ranging from 10 to 15 pounds at a feed for grown stock and for young animals from G to 12 pounds. "Sheep will consume from 2 to 4 pounds daily and horses from 4 to 12 pounds when not working. "It is not advisable to feed work horses large quantities of silage no more than to give them large quantities of new grass. "Feed the ensilage so that the animals will eat it up clean, as It spoils when exposed to the air for several days." ADVANTAGE OF SELF-FEEDER Hogs Not Entirely Finished in Cornfield Should Make Profitable Gains in Dry let. Some feeders believe that hogs which are not entirely finished in the cornfield do not make efficient gains if removed from the field and fed grain in a drylot. There is no reason why this should be true provided the drylot ration is equal in amount and quality to that which the hogs have been obtaining in tlie cornfield. If the unfinished animals are full-fed on" corn, properly supplemented, they should make profitable gains in drylot If they have been previously doing so in the cornfield. The trouble Is usually caused iti' r ; 5 I : r"1 ; i : : N ' . Fall Pigs at Self-Feeders. i by the fact that the amount of the ration is decreased when the hogs are removed. A self-feeder can be used to excellent advantage in such cases. ADVANTAGES OF A SILO (By R. W. CLARK. Colorado A Rricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo.) 1. One-third greater returns can be secured from the land than when the corn Is cured the ordinary way. 2. More live stock can be kept with silage than without it. 3. More of the corn crop can be saved than In any other way. This saving varies from 35 to 50 per cent. 4. Surplus silage can be carried over to years of scarcity. Good silage will keep for years. 5. The value of straw is greatly increased by feeding it with silage. .G. Silage nearly doubles the profits of dairying. 7. Silage increases the profits of beef from 25 to 50 per cent. 8. Good silage Is a splendid and economical feed for horses, but poor silage may kill them. FAILURE IN RAISING CALVES One of Most Common Causes Is That of Overfeeding, Which Usually Results in Scours. One of the common causes of failure in raising calves is that of over-feeding, which usually results in scouring. When scouring occurs, the amount of milk fed should be reduced, or in severe case no milk at all given until the trouble ceases. VALUE OF POULTRY PRODUCTS Equal in Value to One-Half of Corn Crcp -Easy Matter to Double Output of Chickens. The poultry products of our nation are equal In value to one-half the entire corn crop of the nation. It. would be fairly easy to double the oufput of poultry and make" that industry "equal la value to the corn crop.
