The crimson clever seed imperted into the United States in 1916, main ly from France ni Austria, amount ed to one and a hr.lf million pounds. This year tke amount imported was twelve mi'llioi pounds. The cost of crimson clover seed is high. From thirty to seventy per cent, of it will not germinate. Good seed, by the way, ere a bright green ish yellow; poor seed are brownisk in color. The price, and the difficulty ef se curing good seed and good stands, keep our farmers from growing this valuable forage crop more extensive- iy. Clover hullcrs are too expensive for the individual farmer to own individ ually. Here is a chance ot bunch up, buy and use a machine co-operativeiy; se cure abundant home-grown seed cheaply; and increase our clover acre ag at a rapid rate. WANTED Trained Beagle Rabbit Dog.

The southern fanner who appre ciates the advantages of raising him self much of what his famHy needs, is certain to be confronted at the outset by the problem of pastures. It is al most Impossible to realize a profit upon any kind of stock without good pastures and even If the stock Is raised primarily for home consumption rath er than for market, the first thing to be done Is to establish one. Hitherto the South has been sadly deficient In this resect because all the attention has been given almost en tirely to cotton. The southern farm er, however, can, if he will, have as good a pasture as was ever seen in Kentucky or Missouri; and 'have it available more months in the year than is possible in those states. For a permanent pasture a combination of bur clover and lespedeza and Bermuda grass will afford good grazing for at least ten months out of the twelve, for the Bermuda and lespedeza can be grazed throughout the summer and the bur clover from January until the Ber muda comes on again. On light, sandy soils near the gulf coast carpet grass may do better than Bermuda. In any case, however, every permanent pas ture should have a good proportion of some legume either one of those al ready named or melilotus, vetch, white clover or alsike clover. No matter what combination Is se lected it takes time and work to pro- Ihccj Is Mcv:?y in Mules. l-i fact t( il, as ,-.rl oral i. .-i it:; as iy lit.!.! n the il 1 !'; :!!

Vh.-n h iliag is dono in the fall t'ae field hliould not bo praed until the growl 11 is well started, and no pirn-ancnt p. .-lure should ever bo grazed bo heavily as to injure the stard. After the pasture has been made, Ihere are two weeds which somi-times make trouble, the bitterweed an.l the garlic or wild ouion. The presence of bitterweed is an indication tlu:t the pasture has been grazed too closely or has been trampled so ): lavily that the surface soil is too hard and com pact for grasses and clovers to grow. The weed is fi?ldom troublesome on a rich soil in good condition and rarely so on a poor .soil which is not too closely grazed. The use of fertilizers or decreasing the number of grazing animals will aid in eradicating It. The destruction of the wild union is a more difficult matter. It can be killed by a deep plowing of the ground in September or October, followed by a very shallow plowing In the spring and then planting the field with some cultivated crop. However, this meth od cannot be followed in an ordinary pasture where there are many trees or in any pasture without destroying the grass and so making the field useless as a pasture for about eighteen months. When a pasture Is not Infest ed it should be watched closely and any wild onions which make their ap pearance removed at once. The permanent pasture should be supplemented by temporary ones, for which many crops are suitable. For winter use the small grains and vetches will do for horses and cattle, artichokes, chufas, sweet potatoes and cassava for hogs. From December to April oats or wheat and vetch make the best grazing for dairy cows. Horses and mules do not care so much for the vetch but they w ill est the grain until the permanent pasture is ready for them. One bushel of turf oats or wheat and one peck of vetch seed are suffi clent for an acre. If the rustproof oat Is used, the amount should be In creased about one-half. Oats, however, play such an important part in sound southern agriculture that It will pay M H FOR PROFITABLE STOCK fer Plowing, the farmer to study this question thor oughly. With a little forethought it should be possible for the farmer in the cen tral and southern parts of the South to have fresh pastures for cattle and hogs throughout the entire year. From the following list a selection should be possible which will meet conditions on almost any farm. January and February Wheat, oats and vetch, artichokes, rape, bur clover, velvet beans. March Oats and vetch, artichokes, rape, bur clover, crimson clover. April Oats and vetch, rape, bur clover, alfalfa, crimson clover. May Oats and vetch, rape, red clor er, alfalfa, crimson clover. June and July Sorghum, cowpeaa, red clover, alfalfa. August Sorghum, cowpeas, soy beans, alfalfa. September and October Sorghum, cowpeas, soy beans, chufas, sweet po tatoes, corn, peanuts. November Cowpeas. soy beans, chu fas, sweet potatoes, corn, rape, pea nuts. December Cowpeas, chufas, sweet potatoes, corn, rape, velvet beans. Through the use of such pasture crops as these pork can be made more cheaply in the South than 1n the corn belt. It costs, it has b.een calculated, from one-third to one-half less to raise hogs when pastures are used than with concentrated feeds alone. Moreover the hogs harvest the crops without danger of loss from rain and without c-xpi use, and finally both the Boil and the hogs gain. The soil is enriched bv Hie legumes and the health of the hogs improved. WHEAT BRAN IS EXPENSIVE Southern Farmers Can Increase Profits by Growing Every Possible Pound of Feed for Stock.

Farmers in the South can hardly af ford to buy bran: being so far from the big markets the price is generally high from twenty five to thirty dol lars per ton. In any other country where the soil is poor and commercial feed liijh, effort should be made to grow every pound of feed possible up on the land itself. Southern farmers are beginning to appreciate the value of this practice, and more stock feed Is being grown in that country than ever before. While it is a gratifying fact, also, that more livestock is being raised in the South, there is no doubt that tho amount of stock food per head grown on southern farms is steadily increas ing, Cottonseed meal is a favorite feed for the cows in the South and a good many farmers feed too much of it. If they would grow more cowpeas, hairy vetch, clover and alfalfa, and bay less prepared feeds, their profits would bo larger and their soli greatly Improved. COTTONSEED MEAL FOR COWS It la Very Rich In Protein and Animals Easily Get Too Much of It Makes Butter White. Dairymen in some localities have made much use of cottonseed meal, an have found it good feed. It should be used with care and not too much fed at a time, for it Is very rich in protein and cows easily get too much of it. It is also thought that it has a bad effect on color in butter, mak' lng it much whiter than where corn is fed. But the buying of cottonseed by our dairymen is at an end for now all have from fifteen to thirty acres of alfalfa, most of which has been sown within the last two years.
