I 111U1U1I1 INI wmmtmrn FlJaaaaaaaaaaaaKr.: ME3 SUDAN GRASS IS IMPORTANT CROP Now Being Successfully Grown In Nearly All Parts of the United States. HAS SHORT GROWING SEASON Gaining Popularity Because of Its Ability to Produce Fair Yield of Hay Under Conditions of Low Rainfall. Ten yon re nfter Its Introduction to the UnltedStntos from Khartum? Afri ca. Sudan grass wns holng sihti-ms-fully grown In nearly nil parts of the United States. It does not servo well either ns n "money crop" or a soil Im prover, hence It may novctv find n permanent ploco In regular trn rota tions. It has, nevertheless, n very Im portant plnce In the fanner's second line of defense ns a catch crop which can be planted to give satisfactory returns when conditions hnve brought failure to other hay crops. This Is the verdict pronounced by the United States department of agriculture Id Farmer's Bulletin 1120 recently Is sued. Sudan grass Ir replacing, millet ns the premier cntch crop In ninny local ities because of Its nblllty to produce n fnlr yield nnd n high quality nf- hny under condition of low rainfall ; Its rather short growing season, nnd Its nblllty to thrive on n wide rnnge of soil types. Large yields of Ruilnn grass nrc obtained only on good soils, but the grass falls completely only on cold, poorly drained lnnd. Sudan Grass Produces Heavily. In California under Irrigation Sudan grass has mndo yields' of 0.8 tons of field-cured hay an acre, when nlfnlfa produced hut 8..1 tons under like con ditions: it ordinarily yields nbout the same ns nlfnlfa under Irrigation In the Southwest, but Sudnn grass gives Its full crop In three cuttings agnjnst tho four or five required for nlfnlfa. It Is the only grass yet found which In this part of the United Stntes ranks as the equal of alfalfa In point of yield and qunllty of the buy. Its rec ord In this rospept has led to Its use In "pntchlng" old nlfnlfa Ileitis when the stand of nlfalfa has been de stroyed. In tho southern gront plains whore there Is n low, rainfall. Sudan grass grown without Irrigation will yield from one to three tons of hay to tho acre. . There are certain parts of the United State's where the. department of agriculture considers It unwise to depend on Sudan grass for hay. This Is true of the strip of territory 2W) miles wide along the northern xtundary: the regions of high nl 1 1- Sudan Grass Grown in Rows and Cultivated. tildes In the western states; and also most of I'Morldn nnd a narrow strip of ind along the gulf coast. Low tem peratures prevent sueees with the grass In the tlrst two regions named, nnd disease Is the limiting factor along tho gulf coast, in a majority of the central and southern states, how eve"r. climatic and soil conditions are favorable to Sudan grass. Although Sudan grass Is best adapt ed by nature to use ns a hay crop, It Is also used with great success as a soiling ami pasture crop for summer pastures. Its use as a silage mate rial Is limited by the fact that It Is easily made Into hay find fed as such with very little waste, nnd also be cause colli and sorghum both outyleld. It and nro generally available through out the region where Sudan grass Is grown. High Feeding Value. The feeding value of Sudnn grass Is equal to timothy hay. In localities where soy beans or cowpoas do well these legumes- may ho grown In mix tures with the Stidnii grass. Such a mixture produces a hay of higher feeding value thnn 'the-grns alone, because of the high protein content of the legumes. Sudan grass hybridizes freely with the sorghums. It Is necessary, there fore. If pure seed Is produced, to have tho Sudan grass field at some distance from any sorghums, otherwise It will result in a mongrel crop the follow. Ing year. The department of agriculture's new bulletin goes very thoroughly Into the details of cropping, planting, harvest ingboth for hny and for seed as well ns the best methods of feeding the hay to live stock. BIG HARM TO CROPS FROM GRASSHOPPERS Situation Is Particularly Serious in Dakotas. , Pest Destroying First Good Crops ' Farmers Have Had Since Begin- nlng of Extended Dry Season' Poison Bait Favored. Grasshoppers ore Infesting the farms In the northern portions of North Dakota, Michigan and Oregon east of tho Cascade mountains, he cording to reports received by tbe bu reau of entomology. In the Dukotns the situation Is particularly scrloUs because the farms have suffered trSin several years of drought, nnd the ifvor age farmer's bank account Is much decreased by these years of extremely low erop ' yields. Now conies the grasshopper to destroy the first good erop the farmers hnvc been able to grow since the beginning of the ex tended dry seasons. In many enses the farmer's predicament Is desperate, Young Grasshoppers Feeding on Clover. with no funds available to enable him to light the pest which threatens him with bankruptcy,. The United Stntcs department of agriculture has no available funds for the purpose, but Is giving suc'h assist ance ns It can toward putting- control measures Into' effect. Grasshopper bnlt, made according to the directions given below nnd scat tered over the infested areas, is a highly successful weapon to check tho pest. Use 25 pounds of wheat bran; 1 pound of purls green, or white nrse nle; G oranges or lemons finely 'liminni! : iiniirts of Inw-iirndo mo- hisses, and from 2 to 4 gallons of water. Other halts are described In Farm ers' Hulletlu 747, United Stntes depart ment of agriculture, but there Is very little difference In their relative effi ciency. In moist climates the halts may be applied In the morning, but In seml-nrld regions It should bo put out In the evening to secure the best re sults. HORSE'S FEET REQUIRE CARE Doeon't Pay to Neglect Shoes of Anl mal Permanent Injury May Be the Result,. Many n horse becomes Incurably lame and has to be killed long heforo his time; and most often the cause Is some trouble In the fore feet. Do not try to economize In the shoeing "of your horses. Go to the best horse shoer you ciin find, nnd let him have his own way. Havo your horse shod at least once In four weeks. Avoid long calks. The higher the foot Is raised from the ground, the worse for the foot. See that the shoe is big enough, and at tho heels a little too big for the foot. See thnt your horse's feet are kept soft especially In n long spell of dry weather. He uiove his shoes If he stands In for a week or more, but glvo him bedding to stand on, so that ho will not be come footsore. No doubt you know these things yourself, but sometimes yoif forget thein. FARM FORESTRY MAKES FARMING PAY BETTER BY 1. Marketing timber" profit ably. 2 Supplying timber for farm needs. '1.
