C.?The cheapest way to feed animals is to have them graze in pastures. It is an easy and sure way to make money. The profits per acre may not be large but a comparative large acreage can be used with a small amount of mail la bor. As all kinds of land may be used for grazing there need not be any idle iana on tne iarm. iwucn lauu can ue used for grazing that is not suited to staple crops. Pastures occupy some of the best land in the country and pay a profit on it. For the cotton belt, Bermuda, Lespedeza, White Clover, and Bur Clover are the best plants to occupy the pasture area and for any given quantity and area of land will carry the largest number of animals. When well established on good land this combination of plants will carry ae many as four grown cows per acre. A pasture that will carry one grown cow per acre is a good one. For the rest of tne country, extendfcg as far west as Kansas and Nebraska. Kentucky and Canada Blue Grasses and White Clover make the best pastures and these plants are well adapted to the section indicated. A blue grass pasture that will carry one grown cow to the acre is regarded as exceptionally good; one that will carry a grown cow to two acres is regarded as good. For certain types of land Canada blue grass, Red Top and Alslke Clorer give the best graslng. For the country north of the cottoo belt the blue graMes and white clover are so aggressive that they occupy land not otherwise used so that most of the good blue grass pastures of the country are established by natural agencies and this is a desirable and easy way to get a good pasture. Most of the large area of land used for grazing in this country Is occupied by plants established by natural agencies and sometimes this results in good grazing, but often It results in very Indifferent grazing. In the cotton belt no pasture estab lished by natural agencies is comparable to a pasture sodded with Bermuda, Lespedeza, White Clover and Bur Clover. As a rule If a cotton farmer wants a good pasture he must make it. Bermuda may be established by pianung a sman piece 01 auu evei* two feet each way on land that has bien prepared as for oats or other small grain. The sod may be put out any time from April to October when there is moisture enough to make the sod live. White Clover may be sown In the early fall. Bur Clover (In the burr) is best sown in July. Lespedeza should be sown the latter part of February. Five pounds of White Clover seed are enough for one acre; twenty-five pounds of bur clover burrs and twenty pounds of Lespedeza seed are sufficient for one acre. Good pastures should be made gradually as the time element permits of making the cost small. Enough Bur Clover and Lespedeza to sow one acre each gives a start and seed from these small areas can be sown on other areas and the process continued until the plants are established over the entire area. Cattle may help to scatter the seed, especially Lespedeza seed. The SANITARY MEASURES ARE JILL ImPUMANI IN lift UUNtKUL OF ALL PLANT DISEASES Clemson College, S. C.?Where proper precautions are taken it is much easier to prevent an infectious disease than It is to cure it. This is especially true of plant diseases. Plant tissues once infected with a parasitic organism cannot' be cured. The diseased part might be removed and a part of the plant saved, but the tissues already affe ted cannot, as a rule, be cured. The only practical method, then, of controlling plant diseases is by prevention. With plant diseases as well as with infectious diseases of man and the lower animals, sanitary measures are our prlcipal means of prevention. If a certain disease is to be checked, all sources of infection should be removed and it is always the old diseased parts that serve as the main source of infection. It is from these that the disease spreads to healthy plants. The first time that tomato wilt, for instance, occurs in any place, the plants attacked should be removed and destroyed. The same applies to the diseases of cabbage, turnips, lettuce and other garden crops. "Pull and burn" all diseased plants should be the motto wherever any plant disease occurs for the first time. This is the simplest and surest method of getting rid of all sources of infection. This also applies to many diseases ?vi,v, Woira Kommii otttuhlished. It WUiUU llOTQ WbWlMv WW Is even possible to entirely get rid of a disease where It has been present for some time by burning all of the diseased parts. With certain soil diseases like tomato wilt, cotton wilt, water-melon wilt, etc., it is not only important that the diseased plants be destroyed, but TT FEED FARM ANIMALS WE IN PASTURES I labor coat is much lass where mora | time ia used. Time is often a valuaj bis aid in farm operations and it i* very inexpensive. This is particularly true in establishing good pastures. A grown cow should gain two hundred and fifty pounds during the pasture season. With fairly good pastures and good management the gains per acre should be worth four to five dollars and may be more. This appears small when compared to cotton at $100 per acre and this difference is just as great as It seems and yet the pasture farmer may make the most money. Unless land is scarce and limited it usually does not matter about the acre profits. What should be of interest is how much does the man make. The man labor on one acre of cotton may be greater than it is on one hundred acres of pasture where beef cattle are bought in the /? or A# tYlA CtAMAII cat, 111U UC511UUII5 V4 wmv M ?- ? and sold at the close of the season In the fall. One man may do the required work on Ave thousand acres of pasture. Cotton is a much more inteusive crop than pasture grass but extensive crops may be Just as profitable as intensive crops. It is really better for one to think of how much money he is going to make during tha year rather than how much crop ha is going to make on one acre. Near the middle of the cotton belt there is an area of country that appears to be about one-half gullies. By pasturing that land a man made eight to ten thousand dollars a year. There was plenty of land, such aa 11 was, and he used it. The fact that he was using large areas of land did not worry him. Pasture farming is a very sure way to make money but you must use comparatively large areas. With some pastures it pays to n> | tate the animals. Let them gr&se | one area for a while then change to | a diflfersnt area and in this way the t grass in each field is given a good chance to grow while the animals are grazing elsewhere. But this is not the way to manage a Bermuda pasture. Keep plenty of animals on a Bermuda sod to keep it grazed close to the ground. By eating the best grasses animals encourage worthless weeds to grow In pastures and for this reason it is often advisable to run a mowing machine over them once or twice a year. Pastures need some shade but it take# : open land to grow good grass. The cattle graze on the open areas. The cotton farmer may have some excellent temporary pastures. A corn field where a good crop of peas or velvet beans have been grown as companion crops makes a valuable pas- # ture for the fall season. The galna + made in such pasture may be worth as much as ten dollars an acre. Other temporary pastures may b? had with peanuts and soy beans and still others with rape and sorghum. Temporary pasture in the cotton belt may be made to supplement the permanent grazing areas to very great advantage. Nitrate of soda, as a top dressing on Bermuda sod. can be made to pay good profits. P should be applied the firat of May. Cotton is a very reliable crop but even cotton is not as sure aa pastures. . every precaution must be taken to ' prevent the soil which these plants I have grown in from being transferred to other ground which is free from the disease. Anything which carries soil I from around the diseased plants will carry the disease. Where a small area is affected with a disease, then, under ' no conditions should this be plowed at the same time as the uninfected soil adjoining. All Implements used in cultivating patches where the disease occurs should be thoroughly ; cleaned before they are used in any i other place. Drainage water would ! also serve to spread the disease from i such places if the water is allowed i Hraln fpnm the diseased nortions ; on to lands where the disease does not occur. Where It is practical to do so. many of the fruit diseases can be controlled in a large measure by collecting and burning all of the diseased fruit. If it were possible to collect and burn all of the rotten plums and peaches in a community at one time, brown rot would be in a large measure prevented. With the tree diseases, it is very important that all diseased portions should be pruned off and burned. Wherever a dead limb is found in a tree, it should ho r>nt m t and hnrned. Anv dead I tissue Is sure to be a source of Infection. This is especially true of such diseases as Are blight of apple and pear. Every member of the Clemson College experiment station and extension staffs is ready at all times to answer by correspondence questions that farmers may ask. In writing, though. be sure to five your name and addreaa plainly. If you don't know what to give your cows and you don't know what your cows give you, why do you keep cows? Keep records. Whether we have war or peace you should play safe and plant plenty of food crops.
