"Although dairy farmers and all | livestock farmers generally," Cush-1 man explains, "would prefer legume hay and corn or sorghum .with soybeans as silage for stored roughages, grass hay of all kiudd is far better than no roughuge at all?and certaluly there will be plhnty of that. Turning the grass growth into feed will be one way to beat the wet * weather damage to row crops, Mr. Oushman's advice on saving this grass crop is worthwhile at this time. "First", he says, "hundreds of cows can be well fed op grass hay now growing abundantly along roadsides, ditch hanks, and terraces and in1 abandoned fields.
