-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.
