C., Thursday, October 11, 1951 if- Number 42 GRASS AND CLOVER MAKE EXCELLENT PASTURE COMBINE Balance Is Achieved In Carbohydrates and Proteins for Animals. Growing grass and clover togeth er is a bread and meat proposition. The grass is the bread to the ani mals and the clover is the meat. This is true, since grass is high in carbohydrates, and clover is high in proteins. “There are two main reasons,” says R. Y. Bailey, regional research representative of the Soil Conser vation service, “for growing a le gume with grass. One is to supply nitrogen to the grass. The other is to give a better balanced feed rich in both protein and caifcohydrates.” A good balance of grass and clo ver is desirable because it reduces the danger of bloating of the ani mals. A summary of research results recently released from the Missis sippi experiment station states that at least SO't by weight of grass is necessary to give reasonable pro tection from bloat in a grass-clover pasture This is the practical an swer to bloat control, the research summary states. Research informa tion at this station also indicates that tall fescue, due to its fibrous nature and its growth characteris tics. appears to be the best grass for bloat control in this area To have a balanced feed, accord ing to Mr Bailey, you must have a balance between grass and clover “If you slice your meat too thick and your bread too thin, it might make you sick,” he says. In order to get this balance, he thinks fescue should be sown at a normal rate, about 10 pounds per acre, with La- dtno clover seed sown at a rate of about one pound per acre. The fes cue should be planted by dnllttig “If Ledino clover it aeeded at this rate, it should give about a 30-50 balance between grass and legume if good management practices are observed," Mr. Bailey says When mowing is done for weed control, the grass should be clipped about four inches high This en ables the grass to come back better than closer clipping, and the grass hftlp* prevent bloat Fescue and sericea can be grown together Sericea is a non-bloating legume, This makes a good soil- conserving combination and also reduces the bloat hazard. Sericea can be planted an land that is us ually not suited for cultivation, but land that needs cover. Fescue and clover are in many cases planted on lowlands not suit ed for cultivation. Either combina tion decreases erosion wherever planted on sloping land. J. B. O’Dell, local technician of the Soil Conservation service, re ports that farmers cooperating with the Laurens County Soil Conserva tion district have planted 850 acres of permanent winter grazing this fall. Mcftt of this, he reports, is fes cue and Ladino clover. Clemson Still First, Carolina Second In Gridiron Race P.*C.
