ining made' with the , spade, tw,o peo-
*le 'working together can plant very •
rapidly, even 3000 to 4000 or more
plants per day. All, blossoms should
be removed the first year to enable
the plants te produce an abundance
of strong runners .and new plants in
order to forth the matted row. Thor-
ough • and frequent cultivation ahouldI
be given . during the season. Nitro-
gen in the form of nitrate of soda or.'
ammonia sulphate may be used to
advantage just after the plants have
started .into . growth. • -
Pasture • Improvement • . :
A vast amount of ,work on • pasture
improvement has been 'done in recent
years. Experimental work has shown -
that pasture grasses are most nu-
tritious while ,young, and . out of that
-las grown the recommendation • of
loser ' grazing. Pasture grasses
should not be allowed to .become dry
end woody, That may involve rota-
•ional grazing, ,moving the herd on
'o another field and bringing them
back again after the first pasture has
-ecuperated.
Fertilizers have shown' marked' re-
sults• in several ways: First of all in
more earlier • growth, 'in • improved,
quality of grass, less' growth of weeds .
and increased resistance to drought.
Pastures may be improved in set--
oral
en-oral ways. An application of manure
Or commercial fertilizers is, perhaps
the easiest method of restoring old
errnanent pastures. - Another method
is to reseed and disk or harrow. The
most thorough practice is to break
up the old 'pasture, build up the fer.- ',
tility' and seed to a, good pasture mix-
ture. When the intention ' is to . pas-
ture meadows , after one or two hay
crops are removed (and this is gen-
eral practice); seed of suitable pas- -
ture grasses should be included in the '-
seeding.
