L. Kee -Will pees do well on clay

loads of vines per acre? How much
could two men hiervest per dajr with
a two-mile haul to the vinery? What
is a fair average yield of shelled peas
per acre?
Answer: Through the kindness of
Mr. E. F. Net, Agricultural Repre-
sentative of Norfolk County, I am
able to give a very practical answer
to the above question. Mr. Neff sub-
anitted the question to his Short
Course Class, many of whom are prac-
tical pea growers. He replies as fol-
lows: "The information which we
get was about similar to that which
tem for eight cows, as I have only
limited pasture? How much corn
should be drilled, per acre if it is
drilled with grain drill for stover only,
not for grains, and how much fertil-
izer to use for best results?
Answer: I would advise you to 'se
250 lbs. of fertilizer per acre of fertil-
izer analyzing 8 per cent, ammonia,
8 per cent, phosphoric acid, and per

Answer: According to Henry &
Morrison's table on silo capacity your

tons. Director Jordan of Geneva 'Sta-

SID a ton silage 'is worth $3 a ton,
hence the present value of the silage
would run between $5 and $6. The
answer to your next question all de-
pends on how the agreement was
made up. If the renting- of the farm
is on the flat rate of one-third, speci-
fied that it is to mean one-third
share in expenses and profits alike,
then the renter would, of course, have
to assume his share of the expense
