Although this season's hay crop is fairly large throughout the Province, there will be a shortage on many farms before next year's hay season, because of the neeessity of very early fall feeding of stock, duo to failure of pasture. From the time fall ploughing commences, there need be very little hay fed to working teams, provided ono has access to a fodder corn field, The common practice of giving horses all. the hay they can use, and a heavy grain ration, is entirely unnecessary. It has been the writer's practice for several falls to feed all the cu corn mixed with wheat chaff his w rking teams would eat, morning, no and night, with a few pounds of go d hay to be eaten before morning. .
