"I raise cowpeaui for their great soil building qualitios and their high feed ing value, especially for dairy cattle, writes a Tennessee farmer in an ex change. "The crop should be handled to suit conditions. It works nicely in a rota tion with other crops or serves well as a catch crop on stubble wvhere the season is long enough to permit. "In most sections drilling is pre ferred to broadcasting and the crop is then cultivated the samh as corn. Con siderations both of expense and yield favor the cultivation method. Broad casting is all right if the crop is sown for hay and the ground is not too foul with weeds or crab grass. "We drill a bushel of cowpeas to three acres and handle the crop as we do corn. It matures in from 70 to 90 days, depending upon variety. "Do not plant until danger of frost is over. When planting on stubblo as a catch crop we double disk the land and then drill or sow broadcast. Don't plant the seed too deeply. I like- to plant about two inches deel) in moist soil. This gives a good even stand and they will be up in three days. I have found the cowpea of great value." Rations for Sows and Gilts Before Farrowing 1. Barley meal, 75 pounds; chopped alfalfa hay, 15 pounds; tankage, 10 pounds; rutabagas or carrots. 2. Ground onto, 45 pounds; barley meal, 45 pounds; tankage, 10 pounds: alfalfa hay in racks; ruta bagas or carrots. 3. Ground oats, 50 pounds; mid dlings, 50 pounds; alfalfa hay or clover hay. In the farrowing pen there should be a rail set eight inches from the floor and six inches to eight inches from the wall, to prevent the sow from crushing her pigs. Provide just a small amount of bedding for the sow to make her nest. For a few hours after farrowing the sow needs no feed other than water. After 18 to 24 hours she should have a warm feed of shorts slop. After that time the feed should be gradually increased until she is receiving all she requires, but no more. Insist upon exercise. Cattle Will Advertise. Any man ought to be ashamed to send his cows out of doors wearing as an ornament five or six pounds of dried fertilizer on their flanks. You do not ilways need to put a notice in the paper to advertise. Just neglect your cattle and they will advertise you, all right. Be Kind to Cow. Be kind to the dairy cow. You can't pound milk out of her with the milk stool or run milk out of her with the dog when bringing her from the pas ture to the barn. Get on good terms with the dairy cow, and her friend ship1 wi'll he seen by increased profits in the milk pall. Double the Corn Crop. The greater the variety and the richer the reeds given cows, the more and hetter manure enn be had from the herd. With dairy manure alone on the farm, the corn crop enn he doubled withbin two or three years. ** * * * ** ** ** ***, * * CENTElI P01NT' NEWS. * * :tiri. andl Airls.
