PREVENT WINTER
ALFALFA KILLING
Common Saying Among Well
Posted Farmers That Plant
Won't Stand "Wet Feet."
AVOID DEEP LOOSE SEEDBED
On Land That Is Not Well-Drained
Crop Will Either Drown Out or
Heave Out In Course of Few
Seasons Other Factors.
Poor drainage Is one cause for winter-killing.
It Is a common saying that
alfalfa will not crow with "wet feet,"
and In land which Is not well drained
the crop will either drown out or heave
out In the course of a few seasons. A
deep loose seedbed Is an uufavoruble
BSTviT .7-

condition for starting alfalfa, and the
young plants In such n seedbed are
likely to dry out or lieave 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 anlnml
pests, particularly moles and gophers.
The factors named are qualifying
factors which reduce the vitality of
the alfalfa, making It more likely to
winterkill, but even under the most
favorable conditions of growth, alfal
fa frequently winterkills In our north
ern 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
soli, by the smothering of the plants
under Ice, and through the killing of
the roots by the extreme cold.
The heaving of the soil by alternate
freezing and thawing lifts the root
growth, and when the soil thaws, It
settles with It. The soil, on freez
ing, takes a new hold on the roots
which are again raised. Thus the al
ternate freezing and thawing llnally
draws the roots of the plant out of tin
ground, sometimes several Inches,
breaking off the tap root, and In the
case of young plants, the roots are fre
quently thrown out on the surface.
Winter rains or winter thnvys may
cause the fields to become covered
with a sheet of ice, which, If it con
tinues 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 win
ter, and new seeding-, especially late
seedlngs in which the plants are shal
low rooted, and afford little cover, are
most likely to bo affected.
Often old Ileitis which have been
pastured are practically destroyed,
while fields which bad considerable
fall growth left on the ground are not
damaged so much. In the ordinary
winter, the protection nffordod by a
strong fall growth Is usually sulllelent
to prevent any winterkilling.
Winter Protection Favored.
It is evident that when the condi
tions nre too severe, winter protection,
while It may help .onie, will not pre
vent some winterkilling by which n
gooil stand Is thinned or desfroyed.
Precaution should always be taken,
however, to give such winter protec
tion 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 Sep
tember 1.
RETAIN FERTILITY ON FARM
Much Taken Off That Might Be Re
turned to Soil If Crops Were
Fed to Live Stock.
In the mnrkctlng of hay and rough
age there Is n large bulk to hnndle
and hnul to the point of delivery. The
United States department of agricul
ture points out that this means much
extra labor for the men and teams on
grain and crop farms, mid much fer
tility Is taken off which might be re
turned to the fields if the products
were fed to live stock.
FEEDING SILAGE TO
DIFFERENT ANIMALS
Feed Any Place Where It Can Be
Done Without Waste.
Good Plan to Supply It to Cows In
Barns After Milking Has Been
Completed Not Advisable to
Give Too Much to Horse.
"Corn silage may he fed out of doors
lu bunks. In the stall, or In fact any
place where antmiils can eat It with
out waste," says It. W. Clark of tlio
Colorado Agricultural college.
"In feeding milk cows It Is a very
good plan to give the bay In racks
outside or some place where the ani
mals 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 in pounds at a feeding or 20
to HO pounds per day.
"Some large animals will take as
high ns 40 to r0 pounds of silage per
day and make good use of It. In feed
ing fattening stock or steers, silage
may bo fed twice a day lu smaller ra
tions ranging from 10 to in pounds at
a feed for grown stock and for young
animals from G to 12 pounds.
"Sheep will consume from 2 to 4
pounds dally 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 quanti
ties of new grass.
"Feed the ensilage so that the ani
mals will eat It up clean, ns It spoils
when exposed to the air for several
days."
ADVANTAGE OF SELF-FEEDER
Hogs Not Entirely Finished In Corn
field Should Make Profitable
Gains In Drylot
Some feeders believe that hogs
which are not entirely finished In the
cornfield do not make elllclent gains If
removed from the iiKild and fed grain
In a drylot. There Is no reason why
this should be true provided the dry
lot ration Is equal In amount and qual
ity to that which the hogs have been
obtaining In the cornfield. If the unfin
ished animals arc full-fed on corn,
properly supplemented, they should
mnke profitable gains in drylot If they
have been previously doing so In the
cornfield. The trouble Is usually tfuusod
'. ' ? ? S V"

by the fact that the amount of the ra
tion is decreased when the hogs are re
moved. A self-feeder con be used to
excellent advantage In such cases.
ADVANTAGES OF A SILO
(By R. W. CLARK, Colorado ActI
cultural College, Fort Collins,
Colo.)
1. One-third greater returns
enn be secured from the land
than when the corn is cured the
ordinary way.
2. More live stock can bo
kept with silage than without
it.
.'1. More of the corn crop can
be saved than In nny other
way. This saving vnrics from
315 to fiO per cent.
4. Surplus silage can be car
ried over to years of scarcity,
flood silage will keep for years,
fi. The value of straw Is
greatly Increased by feeding It
with silage.
0. Silage nearly doubles the
profits of dairying.
7. Silage Increases the profits
of beef from 2! to fiO per cent.
8. Good silage Is u 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 thnt 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 nt all given until
the trouble ceases.
VALUE OF POULTRY PRODUCTS
Equal In Value to One-Half of Corn
Crop Easy Matter to Double
Output of Chickens.
The poultry products. of our nation
are equal In volue to one-half the en
tire corn crop of the nation. It would
be fairly easy to double the output of
poultry and make that Industry equal
In vulue to tlio corn crop.

VENTILATION OF HEN HOUSE
For Success With Poultry There Must
Bo an Abundance of Fresh Air
Without Drafts.
Poultry raisers have come to real
ize that the ventilation of the poultry
house Is n very Important matter.
There must be an abundance of fresh
nlr without extreme beat or cold, and
without dampness and draft. Proper
conditions cannot be bad with the
makeshift, wrongly used ventilators
frequently employed.
One method, which has proved suc
cessful Is to use the straw air strain
er. A second celling Is built about
six Inches below the regular celling,
In the form of n latticed framework.
A trapdoor In the center of this makes
It possible to change the straw which
Is packed between the lattice and the
original celling. Vents, or wide, low

openings, must he cut In the side of
the house ns close under the enves as
possible. The air, entering nt thes6
vents, filters through the straw, and
thus into the poultry nouse. No
drafts are possible, and Uie tempera
ture Is kept very nearly constant. Tho
strnw also absorbs a great deal of
moisture.
Another method, In rather wide use,
Is to cover an ordinary window frame
with muslin, Instead of using glass.
An Improvement on this typo of ven
tilator Is shown nt the right of tho
drawing. A light wooden frnme cov
ered with muslin Is hung from a wire,
which serves as a track. The framo
can thus bo moved sideways over ot
awny frftm the window opening. Screw
eyes on the frame allow It to slide
easily over the wire. The wire Itself
may be fastened either to screw eyes
or over blocks at either end. To the
left Is shown a similar frame, mov
ing up and down. In this case It will
be necessary to arrange some means
of holding the frnme at the height de
sired. ISHJior the pegs that fit Into
holes In the wall, or a hook fitting lute
screw eyes, placed at various heights
In tho wall, may be used for tills pur
pose. The advantage of the air strainers
over muslln-covcied frames Is that tho
latter have to be adjusted accurately
to tho weather, while the air strainer
requires no attention whatever. .1. T.

Mechanics Magazine.
COVER WINDOW WITH BURLAP
Most Excellent Plan to Keep Out
Wind at Night While Fowls
Are Roosting.
If the poultry house Is narrow so
that the wind blows lu through the
open windows on the fowls on tho
roost, put a piece of burlap over tho
open space at night, but do not close
the windows until the weather gets
cold.
FATTEN FOWLS FOR MARKET
Poultry Will Sell for Higher Price Per
Pound Because of Increase
In Weight.
If any stock Is to be sent to market
be sure that It Is fattened well before
It is shipped. It will pay to do this
because the poultry will sell for a
higher price per pound nnd It will
weigh more.
