FARM J A Column Ilvotiwt l.ocnl fnrniins Interest .t BUREAU NOTES -Sweet Clover Grows in Favor. Sweet clover in sheep ami cattle pasture is growing in favor at the College of Agriculture of the Uni versity of Nebraska. It has been demonstrated this summer that sweet clover will stand drouth much better than blue grass. It can be pastured at all times by sheep and cattle. While it is usually sowed in the spring, it would probably get a good start if not sowed until late in the summer, especially with fav orable weather. About fifteen pounds to the acre is the right amount of seed. Boys and girls that arc ?n the PTg Club please send me your, name, ad dress and precinct so I can arrange for the precinct prizes. Smut Treatment. As the spring wheat should smut to a serious amount all winter wheat should be treated. I would be glad to come to your farm and hold a demonstra tion on treating wheat for smut. A Nehawka farmer reports that by using canvas at the machine, tight bottomed racks and raking the ground, CO bushels of wheat was saved which sold for $2.0.r per bush el bringing the sum of $123.00 which more than paid the threshing bill. The wheat averaged IS bushels test ing (4 pounds. All who are interested in forming a Cass county Improved Live Stock Association, call or write me. L. R. SNIPES. County Agent.
