At present most breeders can care for their hogs with what pasture Is available, avail-able, this supplemented by whatever grains are on hand or the comparatively compara-tively small amounts of feed that might have to be bought Now I the time to plan on raising the- feeds for next season' operations. Indications am that hutles barley will bo scarco and a barley Is one of our main feeding feed-ing grains we should plant as much of It as I possible under existing conditions. condi-tions. Dluo feed barley, however, can bo had In sufficient amount and no doubt will be planted extensively by many feeder The farm on which alfalfa al-falfa In grown should also have field peas for feeding later In the season. Reeds of the Canada and the Kan Luis Valley varieties are good and can be obtained without difficulty. Provided such a farm has plenty of water, about three pounds of Dwarf Essex rape to the acre should be planted with the pea, and the combination fed after using alfalfa. Spring re I somewhat carer, so It will be a good plan to arrange ar-range to havn some re planted this fall. At elevations varying from flftv-five flftv-five hundred feel for Northern Utah to seven thousand feet for Southern Utah, while flint corn may be grown vory sucessfully. The Australian white flint corn Is a good variety, but thero aro also other varieties that will do a well There Is no need of mentioning men-tioning tho value of this grain which U the best for all feeding purpose Mangits are good and should be planted If the farmer Is not In n sugar su-gar beet section, but where sugar beets grow well there Is no need to plant mangels.
