Weir, Departâ€" ment of Field Husbandry. This includes the treatment of old stands already established, and the planting of new catches for next year‘s hay and pasture. If last year‘s pasture was not top dressed last fall then this should be done this spring. A 4â€"12â€"6 ferâ€" tilizer at the rate of 250 to 350 ?ound.l per acre is recommended or average conditions or at a rate depending on soil analysis. This should be applied ibefore growth has commended this spr'u'.:f. Seeded pastures should be grazed early enough to prevent the ‘ull growing grasses and legumes from smothering out the bottom grasseés and small clovers Howâ€" ever, avoid g;uing before the g::md has come sufficiently to withstand tramping, and do not graze until the fresh growth is four to six inches tall. 1 If thin pastures need to be thickâ€" ened by reseeding, this should |be done as soon as possible. Tiâ€" mothy, alfalfa, orchard grass, and brome may be sown by means of a hand seeder, on a fresh fall of snow in early spring, and if the fertility of the soil is not too low, PSnRom t o oo en t t may aid greatly increasing the carrying capacity of a field which you do not wish to break up and reseed this year. If these seeds are sown on the bare ground the field should be lightly disked or harrowed before seeding, and harâ€" rowed after seeding in order to stir up the soil and cover the seed. ‘ Spring Care of Pastures If new stands are being seeded the latest recommended mixtures should be used, whether for long term or permanent pasture, or for the shorter term hayâ€"pasture mixâ€" ture. Make sure there are plenty of legume@ and clovers in both these mixtures, particularly the hayâ€"pasture mixture as it will give a better quality hay, a better aftermath pasture, and aid more in soil building and soil conservaâ€" tion. The seed should be sown on a firm seed bed, of good fertility and with a thinly sown nurse cr‘:r. Forage seeds are very small al under average conditions should not be seeded deeper than oneâ€"half to one inch. _ c For further information with regard to hay and pasture mixâ€" tures consult your local agriculâ€" tural representative, or write to the Field Husbandry Defanment‘ Ontario Agricultural College. place the gross income of Canaâ€" dian farmers at $2,835 million and the net income from farm producâ€" tion at $1,743 million.
