7orage Crops and Meat (By Prof. R. L. Shields.) The otil of mil kinds of memt is in-. creasing from year to ye*r. The chief f reason for this is that meat production ii sot keeping pace with the demand, ?from as increase in popnlation,?in ! faei, the beef supply in this country j is less than a year ago. The Somth consumes a great deal of tke ameant it consumes, relying on ; expensive products snipped m irom tike Nerth and West. If all ear farmers would raise enough hogs, ?*c-? to supply their own meat, it woald insure a more prosperous condition throughout the South, since thousands of dollars leave each county of the South annually for these products that can^be produced so readily at home. The greatest economy in meat production is obtained through the use of suitable grazing crops as a supplement to grain feeding. No one should attempt to raise Jive stock without first carefully planning for the necessary forage crops. It is I possible to have grazing crops trirougn nt the year. The following crops are recommended for hog grazing. Time for seeding, ? amount to sow per acre, grazing period, etc., under average condi f - tions, are also given: Rape:?Sow in late Summer or early Spring. Amount, three pounds drilled, six pounds broadcast per acre, time for crop to develop for grazing, eight to ten weeks; length of grazing period, three months. Cowpeas:?Sow from middle of July.

Soy beans:?bow from iviay nrst to middle of Jnly; amount same as for cowpeas; should be planted with drill; time for development, two to three months; grazing period, four weeks. Rye:?Sow Sept first to last of November. One and one-half bushel? drilled; time for development, two to four months. Will furnish grazing two to three months. Corn and Peas:?Plant May and Jane.
