SOUTHERN FARMS
Forage Crops Fully as Important
as Cotton and Corn.
PROFITABLE AS WINTER FEED
Every Farmer Should Make Growing
of Fodder a Big Part of Hie Farm
Operations, Selecting Piece of
Land for Purpose
(By O. 11. ALFORD.)
The question of forage crops is not
a difficult problem for southern farm
ers. Almost every farm crop grown
can be used for forage. There are,
however, many plants that will pro
duce forage in abundance.
Every farmer should make the grow
ing of forage an important part of his
farm operations. Each year a large
piece of land should be selected espe
cially for the growing of forage crops.
Forage crops are of fully as much im
portance as cotton and corn, but they
are usually neglected crops.
The turnip crop should be consid
ered of great value. Prepare the land
i thoroughly, manure heavy, plant in
I drills three feet apart, when the leaf
i Is as large as a dime, thin to 15 inches
! and cultivate often, and you will raise
a great quantity and find that the crop
is very profitable for winter feeding.
For the earliest spri/ig feed, sow
oats, rye or wheat in the fall. Sow
two bushels per acre on fertile soil,
liberally manured and well prepared.
These crops usually produce feed by
the first ot March and furnish good
hay if cut in the dough stage
Crimson, white, burr and red clovers
are valuable winter crops to plant.
September and October are the best
months for seeding, and to be sure
of a big crop plant on fertile soil and
a perfect seed bed, using plenty of
manure and 200 pounds of acid phos
phate per acre. Sow from 15 to 20
pounds of seed per acre. The yield
of hay on thoroughly prepared fertile
soil Is about one and one-half tons
per acre. The corn crop planted on
this clover stubble will never fail you.
As high as 20 tons of silage corn Is
often grown on clover sod.
Alfalfa excels every other crop in
yield per acre, in feeding value, and
as a soil enrlcher, when grown on
land to which it Is well adapted
For a large yield of hay, sow one
bushel of wheat or oats and 15 pounds
crimson or red clover per acre. The
crops are cut when the clover is in
full bloom. It is easy to make two
tons of hay per acre on fertile soli,
I and these hays are milk and fat pro-
I duel ng feeds.
Hairy vetch and wheat or oats arc
I also fine for grazing and hay. More
land is being seeded each year to
this mixture, and the farmers all like
it.
Fall or spring sown oats furnish
grazing and make a capital hay when
cut in the dough stage. At Baton
Rouge. La., two and one-half acres
were planted in oats at the experi
ment station for grazing on Septem
ber 28. October 29 seven Poland
China pigs weighing in total 276
| pounds were put on the oats and
given no feed during the winter. On
February 17 the pigs weighed a total
.of 568 pounds, or an average gain of
.37 pound per pig per day for 110
days. From October 29 to January 1
45 head of sheep were pastured on
this same plat.
Rape will produce more green for
age in the south during the winter
months than any other one plant or
combination of plants that can be
grown. It has been demonstrated by
the experiment station that an acre of
good rich land sown to rape will pro
duce as much pork when used as a hog
pasture as the same acre planted to

corn and well cultivated. It can be
grown a great deal cheaper than corn.
One or more acres should be planted
on every farm every year.
Wheat, oats, rye, and barley make a
good mixture for grazing and hay.
When sown in September or October
on good land, it may be grazed all the
dry days from November 1 to March
1 and then hay may be harvested the
latter part of May or the first of June.

mer crop that can be grown for lof
age. Every farmer is entitled to his
choice, and while sorghum and othet
crops produce an abundance ot high
class feed per acre we must not fail to
keep in riffnd the fertility of the soil.
It is possible to have a rotation of
very fine forage crops that will Im
prove the soil. Cow peas, soy beans,
peanuts, alfalfa, the vetches and
clovers furnish grazing and hay and
rapidly increase the fertility ot the
soil.
At the Louisiana station corn with
cowpeas grown in the corn and pea
nuts gave 450 pounds of pork per
acre. The peanuts were planted after
oats, which, during the winter, fur
nished grazing that gave 200 pounds
of pork per acre and a crop of oats be
sides. The peanuts planted after oats
gave an average of 400 pounds of pork
and this added to 200 pounds from
grazing the oats made a total of 600
pounds of pork per acre and a crop of
oats besides
Sweet potatoes give from 400 to 750
pounds of pork per acre. If we take
an average at 500 pounds and add to
this 200 pounds from grazing the oats
which preceded the sweet potatoes,
we have 700 pounds of pork per acre
for one season, plus a crop of oats har
vested.
At the Mississippi delta station, aft
er the corn was gathered, pigs were
turned into the pea field, and made a
gain from the peas of 170 pounds per
acre. They had no additional feed.

The results obtained when turning
hogs, cattle, sheep and other stock
Into velvet beans after the corn is
harvested are more than satisfactory.
The soy bean is probably the best
annual legume to grow for forage in
the cotton belt. Whether used as a
hay, grain or for grazing it is a very
valuable feed for like stock Soy-bean
hay is practically identical in feeding
value with alfalfa, and yields from
two to three tons per acre. The grain
is more valuable than cottonseed meal
as a supplementary feed in the produc
tion of pork, mutton, wool, beef, milk
and butter. A bushel of soy beans is
at least twice as valuable for feed as
a bushel of corn.
Spanish peanuts will produce good
crops on comparatively poor land,
when well fertilized and cultivated.
Prof. Duggar at the Alabama station
found an acre of Spanish peanuts pro
duced 600 pounds of live weight In
hogs. This was after the tops had
been cut with a mower and saved for
hay. The growing of peanuts after
oats and on other land, and the use
of the mowing machine or the thresh
er and hay press, will promote the
raising of good live stock and add
much to the fertility of the soil.
Cow peas without grain usually give
better results than other crops. One
season a crop ot peas grown on bottom
land produced 483 pounds of pork per
acre. Peas furnish most excellent
grazing for all kinds of stock
Milo maize, Kaffir corn, millet and
other crops furnish excellent forage,
but a crop of corn and cow peas, soy
beans, peanuts, or velvet beans can
be grown on the same land at the
same time aud furnishes a world of
valuable feed and increases the fer
tility of the soil at the same time.
This being true, let us call particular
attention to the importance of cow
peas, peanuts and soy beans planted
in the corn at the last working as a
factor in the production of large quan
tities of cheap forage. AH kinds of
stock can be turned into the field
after the corn is harvested and will
soon be rolling fat.
Every farmer who keeps as many
as ten head of stock should build a
silo. The cost Is small. For filling
the silo corn Is king. The yield of
corn on fertile soil is seldom under ten
tons per acre, and often as high as 20
tons per acre.
No man can make the best use of
forage crops without adequate fenc
ing. Around every field run a woven
wire fence 30 inches high, with two
strands of barb wire above. Also use
several hundred yards of the hurdle
or portable fence to divide the fields
into lots of any size. This fence is
simple and cheaply made and can be
stored under a shed until needed.

BEST YEARS OF MAN’S‘LIFE
Depend on What Youth Was, Nature
of His Work and Staying
Power*.
What are a man’s ‘ best years" de
pends largely on what his youth was
the time for laying the foundation, it
also depends upon the nature of his
work and something of his stamina or
staying powers; also, as to whether
he has mastered his environments or
allowed them to master him. Hugo
Munsterberg places the high water
mark at 50 years, Doctor Wiley thinks
a man’s best work should be done
after he is sixty; while Doctor Osler
claims that little original and valu
able work is done after the age of
forty. As for my own humble opin
ion, I am quite thoroughly convinced
that a man does not reach his prime
of intellectual strength and lucidity
until he arrives at the halfway house
threescore and ten.
The life problem is very much like
a marathon, and should be decided
accordingly. On the one hand, it Is

the other hand, it is mot a question as
to the time he made, but what was his
condition? Did he collapse or did he

TEST OF REAL EDUACTION
You Have It If You Can Answer “Yes”
to All of the Following
Questions.
A professor once told his pupils that
he should consider them educated in
the best sense of the word when they
could say "Yes” to every one of the
questions that he should put to them.
Here are the questions:
Has education given you sympathy
with all good causes and made you
espouse them?”
Has it made you public-spirited’
Has it made you a brother to the
weak?
Have you learned how to make
friends and keep them? Do you know
what it is to be a friend yourself?
Can you look an honest man or a
pure woman in the eye? Do you see
anything to love in a little child? Will
a lonely dog follow you in the street?
Can you be high-minded and happy
in the meaner drudgeries of life? Do
you think washing dishes and hoeing
turnips just as compatible with high
thinking as piano-playing or golf’
Are you good for anything to your
self? Can you be happy alone? Can you
look out on the world and see any
thing except dollars and cents?

met half a dozen of his colleagues at
The Players one noon, and they all sat
down together for luncheon. Con
gratulations were extended, and he
accepted them gracefully, as was be
coming in one of his position. Lunch
eon was ordered. "And do you
sign checks, too?" inquired one ot the
number. "Oh, yes," came the ready
answeK Whereupon six luncheon
checks were thrust upon him with a
chorus of “Then sign these.” He
signed them.
