' Alfalfa Is Wanted - PASTURING GEESE Desirable Type of Legume ON CLEAN RANGE . Forage Is Always in Demand by Dairymen. As General Rule Fowls Are United state Department iFnpint by the Given Freedom of Field. of Agriculture.) r ' s er ' alfalfa hay could be profitably produced and marketed In much greater quantities than at present, according to the United States Department of Agriculture. Dealers marin all big kets annually receive thousands of ore alders from dairymen for falfa hay which they cannot fill because an insufficient quantity of such hay is produced. Many dairymen who do not now utilize much alfalfa hay would become buyers if supplies of e hay were available at all times, says the department. 8tudy Market Demands. Farmers who grow alfalfa for a cash crop are urged to study market demands and then make their production and loading practices conform to the market requirements. Methods of producing, baling, and loading alfalfa hay for market are discussed In Farmers' Bulletin 1539-F- , e Alfalfa Hay," entitled just issued by the department ale Among the causes for falfa listed and discussed in the bulletin are thin stands containing weeds and grasses, foreign material such as decayed rakings from previous cuttings, weather damage, at time of cutting, overdrying, baling and stacking undercured hay, baling during weather conditions which cause g loss of leaves and causes High-grad- The raising of geese has not been specialized like dock raising, for the reason that geese secure most of their feed by grazing. For this reason, geese re raised on most farms In comparatively small flocks. These facts are the principal reasons why geese raising offers an opportunity for most farmers to add another source of income to their spring poultry raising. Geese may be pastured at the rate of 60 hesd to an acre, but, as a general rule, they are given free range. This is satisfactory so long as they are not numerous. However, if a large flock of geese Is pastured on the regular pasture the live stock will not relish the pasture on account of the goose manure on the grass. Ordinarily, the number of geese raised on any one farm are not numerous enough to cause any trouble from this source. Geese do not require a great deal of attention. After the first two weeks they are able to look after themselves if given a good range. The principal food of geese is grass, supplemented by insects and other low forms of animal life. If suitable range is not accessible it is not advisable to go into geese raising. Houses that will protect the geese from rains in summer and from snow, cold winds and dampness in winter are the only essentials from the housing standpoint Low, open front sheds are often used for this purpose. Care should be taken to see that the interior of the house Is dry at all times. Geese like to swim and they will exercise In the snow practically all day, but they should have dry places to roost or they will contract rheumatism. The floor of such houses should be of earth. This should be covered with straw and renewed often enough so that it will be dry. A thin coating of sand often proves helpful In keeping the house dry. Geese mate more successfully after they are two years of age than when mated earlier. This Is more true of the females than of the males. Occasionally yearling geese will produce fertile eggs, but they cannot be depended upon. Small, undersized geese should not be used for breeding purposes. On the other hand, extra large, coarse geese are not as satisfactory as those of full development, but not so coarse. With most breeds the gan-dwill mate with from three to four geese.

In the official United States hay standards, alfalfa hay is classified according to its purity. The class named Alfalfa cannot contain over 5 per cent of grasses nor over 10 per cent of other legumes. If the grass content is over 5 per cent but not over 20 per cent the class is designated as "Alfalfa Light Grass Mixed."

The mash shonld be mixed thoroughly together in a dry state and then the molasses should be added and stirred in. This poison mash should be broadcast over the field, taking care to sprinkle it sparingly around the bills. The poison for the cutworms should be put out as soon as the corn begins to appear above the ground so that the worms may be killed as quickly as possible.

"Since the killing of bindweed with sodium chlorate as a spray should be practiced only under the supervision of the county agent or some leader who has received special training in handling the chemical, it is advisable to handle bindweed patches by preventing spread. suggests E. H. Teagarden, bindweed specialist, extension service, Kansas State. Agricultural college. It Is possible that more new patches of bindweed start from seed than from all other sources. For this reason, every effort should be expended to prevent the bindweed plants from producing seed." Plowing of bindweed patches at the time the first blooms appear is recommended by the specialist Subsequent surface cultivations may be made at any time after growth is resumed. When the plants start to bloom, plow again and prevent the plants from producing seed. Teagarden cautions farmers having trouble with bindweed against the long life of the seed. It may live in the soil eight or ten years or even more before growth starts. For this reason any seed prevented from forming will lessen the eradication problem to a great extent. is, 2,-0- PREVENT SPREAD OF BINDWEED FOR MOST EFFECTIVE CONTROL Most of New Patches of Pest Are Started From Seed. ; folly to suffer long from nets-ritneuralgia, or headaches when relief is swift and sure, with Bayer Aspirin.
