These Mixtures Give BigHay,.Pasture Yield In a great many parts of Canada more farm land: is used for hay and pasture than any other purpose. Yet no crops are more neglected, in the opinion -of agricultural ex- perts. That is serious enough at any time but in these years of high operating costs and lower farm prices it is something that we simply cannot afford. Experience on up-to-date farms in Canada, and even more so in Europe, have proven that hacy and pasture lands with a little care andi treatment can be made to yield as high returns in valuable feed as any other part of the term. Here, as in other places, good seed of the right kind, and comtmercially cleaned, and fertilizer will' pay high dividends. Seeding of hay or pasture land is best done in the Spring, but not, of course, while the ground is still wet and liable to pack. The field should be *ell worked, just as for any other farm crop, ditches run before sowing and, commercial fer- tilizer drilled into the land cross- wise at the rate of 300 pounds per acre. Commercial fertilizer, so far as possible, should not come into actual contact with the. seed. For a well -drained field the fol- 1oising mixtures per acre are ad- Vised: . With a bushel of oats or barley, mix 8 pounds of alfalfa, 10 pounds brome grass, 1 pound orchard grass. and 1 pound meadow fescue. Along with this broadcast a mix- ture of 4 pounds of alfalfa, 3 pounds of timothy, 1 pound Ladino clover, 1 pound Canada. blue grace, 1 pound Kentucky blue, and 5 pounds red clover. This makes a mixture of 5 pounds of grass and clover seed 11) all. For the field that is not so well drained and is inclined, to stay damp in the Spring. an ,excellent has ot„, pasture ni'i4ture is made as follows: One bushel barley, 8 pounds' brome. 3 pounds orchard grass, 4 pounds fescue, broadcast, 4 pounds timothy, 1 pound Dutch clover, 5 pounds reed canary, 5 pounds red clover. For seeding mixtures like this it is `important not to sow too deep, a mere scratching of the soil is all, that is necessary with the drill set at four pecks. The small seeds fit around the openings between the grains, therefore a faster setting Spring(Iearance USED AND NEW MACHINES New M. -H. 30 Std. Tractor, ..$550.00 Discount Used M. -H. 30 Std.

The sowing of one bushel of oats or barley will give a worthwhile crop and, adds a protection to the small seeds through the summer. In both mixtures mentioned it will be noted there is five pounds of red clover. This is the only biennial, the others are Perennials and slow starters. The first hay crop therefore will be thickened, by the red clover. Where a full oat crop is desired to be followed by bay or pasture, this is a good mixture per acre: Eleven pecks of oats. 6 pounds alfalfa, 8 pounds biome grass and. for the grass seeder. 6 pound's al- falfa_ 2 pounds timothy and 5 pound's red clover. A fields well cultivated and seed- ed for hay or pasture is well worth some regular care and with such it will last and yield well for years. Authorities advise a. good spread of barnyard manure in the winter, the application of airpurls early in the spring and the feeding of agricul- tural lime where necessary. They also advise against overgrazing or too much tramping by stock. es- pecially when the ground is soft. In hay and pasture, mixtures the importance of good clover and grass seed cannot be overstressed. in this business it is vital to re- member t.hht we are fighting'weede —not sowing them, To make sure, only No. 1 Grade seed from a re- liable dealer should be used.
