Georgia Roughage For State Demands
Pres. Andrew M. Soule, Georgia Stale College of Agriculture
Turning from a cotton regime to
growing at least a home supply of
roughage, what can the average Geor
gia farmer produce easiest? Among
the crops that can be successfully
grown for hay are oats and vetch,
wheat and vetch, rye, vetch and crim
son clover, crimson clover singly, cow r
peas, soy beans, cow peas with sor
ghum or millet, sorghum sown broad
cast and tliickly, and corn. To grow
grasses, alfalfa and other hay crops
Js more difficult, and should be enter
ed into gradually.
Every farmer in Georgia can grow
enough of one or more of the com
binations mentioned to supply his
tiome demands and have some to s£ll
.to the live stock owner in the city
tand town. Every crop mentioned pro
duces heavily and comparatively little
acreage will be needed to meet all
pt Georgia's demands for roughage.
I Oats and vetch afford a combination
equal if not superior to any other crop
grown for hay during the winter sea
son. do# peas alone but preferably
•cow peas sown with millet produce
a luxuriant pasture as a summer
Georgia Mares Could
Raise Georgia Work Stock
Milton P. Jarnagin, Professor Of Ani
mal Husbandry, Georgia State
College Of Agriculture
According to statistics which have
‘ust been issued by the United States
Department of Agriculture, there were
125,000 horses in Georgia at the be
ginning of the present year. It is
reasonable to tlgure that one-half of
these are females. It is also within
the bounds of reason to figure that
these mares are capable of a 60 per
cent breeding record.
If the mares already in Georgia
were bred, it would be possible to
raise annually 37,500 colts. Asa
matter of fact the government sta
tistics referred to show that there
wore only about 3,000 colts raised in
Clean Up Day at the Cemetery.
The cemetery committee of the
Civic Lea o ue wishes to announce that
April 15th and 16th will be observed
as clean up days at the cemetery.
Every one owning a lot is requested
to see that it is put in order on one
o‘ these days.
The city has kindly promised the
assistance of the street force to
help in every way possible.
growth. Sorghum alone or in com
bination with cow peas, provide a
splendid summer hay crop. When
sown alone it should be sown thickly
so that the stalk will be as small
as possible.
When corn is gathered at the right
time and shredded it forms a rough
age nearly equal to timothy in feeding
value. This valuable feeding mate
rial is very generally allowed to go
to waste in the South.
Of course many legumes do well in
Georgia, but a legume hay fed with
out association with other roughage
makes too rich a protein food, and
live stock do not do so well on iL
Georgia need not be dependent upon
the west for hay. It can and should
grow Its own roughage. Many times
more animals can be supported on
home-grown feeds than are now be
ing raised. The more animals fed,
the more fertile the acres will be and
the more permanently successful will
be the agriculture of the state.
This Is the year to begin to grow
all the feed for the animals on the
farm, and the time to grow vastly
more of human food than has ever
been grown In Georgia.
Georgia last year, which means that
only about ten per cent of the mares
in Georgia were bred.
Counting both horses and mules,
there is In Georgia now 434,000 head
of work stock. That being the re
quirement and counting that It is nec
essary to repurchase about every ten
or eleven years, it is apparent that
the mares already in Georgia could
foal enough animals to meet the de
mand. Therefore Georgia already has
the foundation for breeding its own
horse demand. It is capable of stop
ping the $12,000,000 annual outgo from
the state for work stock, if it will
only breed the mares it has on hand.
What then is necessary to at once
increase the colt production in Geor
gia ten times what it is and thus meet
the state's demands? The purchase
of a few pure bred or high class sires,
their distribution over the state at ad
vantageous points. Then with an op
portunity at hand to breed, no owner
of a mare ought to be so foolish
as not to make use of it.
