"THURSDAY, AUGUST 11. 1021 IS YOUR PASTURE GOOD ENOUGH? Does your pasture furnish enough grazing t|r your stock from early up ring until late fall, or <ln s it fail lor a time in the spring and the full? t'an it '>■ improved without too much trouble and expense? What grasses and clovers are best? To nnswe ■ these questions intelli sontlv, it will lie well to review the problem of permanent pastures for Georgia The natuia. pasture lands of this section are low, moist lands. The reason for this is low land is more cer tain during the spring and fall than high land. Low land should therefore Is* the basis of a pasture. The seepy places between hills and the bottoms along creeks and branches are the places suited for pastures. If these places have not been Included in the pasture, they should tie taken in where it is possible to do so. Another tiling about pastures is tlmt poor lands make poor pastures. Quite often the poorest lands on the place are wired in and turned into pastures but the amount of grazing from these places is always very small. When a good yield is expected from a pasture the land should lie good land. Tin* best grasses and clovers found in Georgia pastures are lespedeza or wild summer clover and bermuda grass for the hills; and Dallis grass, red top and white clover for t,.e bottom lands. Ld.spedeza comes in naturally after several years, hut much more quickly by seeding about ten pounds per acre during tin* spring. Dallis grass conies from seed sown in the spring on hard land and red top and white clover from seed sown in the fall. Lespedeza is valuable in mid-sum mer. At this time of the year it is growing well. During most of the spring it is too small for grazing, and during the fall it matures early. While it lasts it is one of the most valuable pasture crops we have. Bermuda grass i* well known and valued for Its grazing, its ability to stand drought and Its long life as ft grazing plant. Dallis grass Is new to many people It is a bunchy, big leaved grass ear lier In the spring and later in the fall than bermhda and growing only on low land or rich upland. <>n the low land It will do better than bermuda when once started. The seed seem to like hard land but are slow in developing where there is already a good stand of other grasses. Four or live pounds per acre will give a good start of this g rass and it will gradually spread over the lands suited to it. Red top or Herds grass likes wet lands. It comes from very tine seed that are not expensive. Two to live pounds per acre sown in the early fall will give a good start of this grass. It should bo sofn on damp or wet lands only. It gives very early grazing. White clover is an early pasture plant that will grow on most damp lands after they are well inocu lated. A pound or more of seed per acre will get it started and where well adapted it will spread over the land. These live are the plants that do best in the permanent pasture of the average farm. There are others, as bur clover, vetch and orchard grass that can he used but they do better in a special patch than in the main pasture. Now is the time to begin thinking about im proving pastures or building new ones, rail on me for other Information along this line. Yours very truly, A. 1). ROBERTSON, County Agent.

Budlong, well known and highly re spected citizen of Manchester, N. H„ living at 42 School street, “From the time I was a hoy I could not sit down and eat a meal without being in misery afterwards from indi gestion. During all these years I was afflicted with rheumatism, too. It was all over my body, but especially bad in my feet and legs and at times I could not get from my bed to my chair with out help. I, was almost a -nervous wreck from all these years of suffering and could not half do my work. I hoped for nothing more than tempor ary benejit from Tanlac, as I believed it impossible for any medicine to give me entire relief, but this is exactly what Tanlac has done. “For the first time since I can re member I eat anything I want and di gest it without trouble. I haven’t an ache or a pain and have put on eight teen pounds in weight. I just feel good all over and enjoy life as I never did before. Having put Tanlac to the test I do not hesitate to say that it is the greatest medicine of the age for stom ach trouble and rheumatism.” Tanlac is sold in Winder by G. W.
