Live stock, both cattle and sheep, find it quite palatable. What is defeat? Nothing but education. Nothing but the first step to something better.â€"Wendell Phillips. * This species is usually referred to as a lowland grass because it thrives on low land that is poortly drained and where water lies for several weeks during the spring season, says Dr. T. M. Stevenson, Dominion Agrostologist, Central Experimental Farm, gttawa. That it is well suited to such areas has been clearly demonstrated by tests conducted by the Division of Forâ€" age Crops. In fact, tests have shown that Reed Canary grass will thrive and yield well on soils so wet that no other cultivated grass can survive. But it is not adapted‘ only to swampy or wet areas. Tests on well drained average farm soils have demonstrated its value for both hay and pasture. In one threeâ€" year grazing test, on well drained clay soil, it yielded twentyâ€"eight per cent more herbage than timoâ€" thy; in another test it yielded eleâ€" ven per cent more than timothy. On sandy land of reasonably good fertility and where moisture condiâ€" tions were favorable it has also done well.

Liveâ€"stock buildings are seldom heated, animal heat being relied upon to keep the building comfortâ€" able. Such buildings, says G. B. Harrison, Dominion Experimental Station, Swift Current, Sask., should be insulated to conserve this animal heat as much as possible. Concrete floors will be warmer if they are built over a cinder fill Cinders have a greater insulating value than gravel, stone, or the earth over which a concrete floor is often poured. Methods of planned insulation are being more generally adopted not only for the farm home itself but for all animal shelters on the farm.

In many sections of Canada veâ€" getable crops are grown in rotation with general farm crops. and this, in turn, may be followed with a legume hay. The sod land may then be planted to corn or potatoes, followed by a vegetable crop the next year, or the vegetable crop may follow the hay unless weeds or insects are likely to be troubleâ€" some. A clean culture crop such as corn or potatoes should precede small close â€" growing vegetables such as beets, carrots and onions. 196 King St. Rast Kitchener Auto Electric Full efficiency from your farm machinery means bigger returns from your work.

Likewise, there is « belief among vegetable growers that the previous crop has an imâ€" portant relation to the yield of a crop following. While it is difficult to outline a definite rotation for all conditions, the following principles should be observed. To utilize the resources of the soil fully, it is well to alâ€" ternate shallow rooted and deep rooted crops, ahd to follow crops which furnish organic matter with those whose culture favor their deâ€" composition. A crop such as fall rye may be used to furnish the orâ€" ganic matter and it may be grown in a rotation which will not interâ€" fere with the vegetable crop seaâ€" Rotaluo? is also of value inutfie control of some especially those which m‘me to move far.
