Fire Destructive
To Grazing Interests
Various studies by experts of the
United States Department of Agri
culture and of the College of Agricul
ture prove beyond doubt the fact that
the annual burning of the range is
very detrimental to the grazing inter
ests. Surveyed areas, a part of which
were burned over annually, showed
markedly the effect of lire. The burn
ed-over areas supported a smaller
amount of coarse, worthless forage
than did the unburned areas. In addi
tion, the unburned areas showed a
gradual increase in the variety and
kind of valuable forage plants. The
stock grazing on the two classes of
areas were weighed each year, allow
ing an advantage of several pounds
per head in favor of the unburned
range.
Feeding the Milk Cow
Milton P. Jarnigan, Prof, of Animal
Husb., Ga. State Col. of Agriculture.
Under-feeding is responsible for
much of the financial loss incurred
by dairymen. It must he remembered
that the cow uses at least half the
full feed for maintaining the body.
She should be given one pound of con
centrates for each 3 to 6 pounds of
milk produced; furthermore, the con
centrated part of the ration should be
high In protein. In whatever form
roughage may be given, the cow’s ap
petite should be the measure of the
amount allowed. Silage can be pro
duced very cheaply in the South and
every farm with more than ten head
of milk cows should have one.
Reducing the
801 l Weevil Damage
J. G. Oliver, Field Agent In Weevil
Control.
Fields in which the stalks were de
stroyed now show a marked differ
ence from those where the stalks stood
all winter. The destruction of stalks
in the early fall resulted in the death
of the weevils which would have win
tered over besides destroying large
quantities of eggs. No weevils were
found up to the first of this month
on the fields where the stalks had
been destroyed, while on other fields
the weevils were plentiful. Naturally
the weevil winters over where the
cold weather catches him and, in the
spring, attacks the nearest cotton field.
If there were a concentrated action
on the part of all farmers in the de
struction of stalks, the control of the
weevil would be a simple matter.
