From solid patches of sow thistle In the 1930 sweet clever field to a clean, weed-fre- e stand of wheat last year la tha short story of one field on this farm. Sheep, horses and cattle bring protable returns on Kelson's land by Durgrazing on rotated pasturea. ing th drought In that section in 1929 the stock grazed the sweet clover pasture closer than usual. Lat In the fall the land was plowed and after that followed only tha usual spring seedbed preparation. Nelson has had other similar experiences In weed control, and believes that with the llv stock system of farming, keeping down sow thistle Is not such a serious problem. Successful Farming. sag-gestl- Clean Ground for Pigs I wanted to see whether there was anything to this system of raising hogs, said Axel Bergsten of Riley county, Kansas, In Successful Farming. So a year ago I separated my brood sows into One half I left In two bunches. the lot where I have raised hogs every year and the other half moved down In the alfalfa field. I fixed np an automatic waterer, but It didn't work very well, so I had to carry water, bnt It was worth while. The pigs out on the clean gronnd grew right away from those farrowed In the old lots and at five months of age wer from 50 to 75 pounds heavier. Next year every sow I have will farrow on clean gxound, as I am fully convinced that It is the only way to raise hogs. clean-groun- d I Control Animal Parasites Parasites that are particularly harmful to young animals can be controlled by proper sanitation and medication. One of the best ways of eoatrolllng parasites is to rotate pastures. Horses, cattle and awlna can be rotated on the same ground. Pastures used for sheep can be used subsequently for horses and swine, but should not be used for cattle aa some of the same parasites attack cattle that attack sheep and goats. To date no known method will destroy all kinds of parasites, but these can be kept In control through carefnl management of flocks, Prairie Farmer, j |
