It is best to let the grass get a good start before truing the cows on pasture, unless the pastures are large in proportion, to the number of cows and will continue to grow and increase in spite of grazing. Of course the -pastures should be grazed I enough to prevent thd plants bcoming large, hard and dry, but on the other hand, too close grazing early hi the spring not only retards the growth , of the plants, but there is never enough feed available so that the cow , can get her till in a reasonable time. > uut even wiui good pastures properly handled, the heavy milRing cows cannot get enough feed unless given some concentrates or grain. Most Southern pastures are none too good and do not afford a good cow all the feed she needs. In fact, few of them will afford enough feed to enable a good cow to produce most economically. -i It is, therefore the part of wisdom to continue to feed the good cows a liberal quality of concentrates while on pastures. In fat, we cannot afford to do otherwise.?The Progressive Farmer. LET'S REALLY GROW OUR HAY THIS YEAR Seldom if ever has the South begun a crop-growing season with a more serious feed shortage than this year. It is highly important for us to consider how we can grow feed more cheaply in 1926?and perhaps, if necessary drives us to better feedgrowing policies this year, they will be followed in future years also. At present prices of hay and cotton there is more money in hay, for an aore of land that will uroduce half a bale of cotton will produce two tons of hay, with half the fertilizer and less than half the labor cost. Oats^ with vetch followed by soybeans will do this; cowpeas with sorghum will do it; and velvet beans with corn will do it?and leave the land in better shape to produce more hay or more cotton corn the following year There is no better way to avoid overproduction of cotton than to grow feed on part of our cotton land. And right now while we are planning our 1926 ^otton crop, let's remember "that, there are a few million other cotton growers in the South who gamble with cotton as we do and who are now planning an acreage that may bring the price of this year's cotton down to 15 cents a pound. If we produce $100 or $500 worth of hay and by doing this avoid having to pay out $100 or $500 of our cotton money for hay, then we not only have our hay needs supplied but have the clear profit cotton money sale, and made this clear profit because we did not have to buy hay.?
