Arey, dairy .specialist of the State college extension service, in urging that adequate pastures be provided for dairy herds this year. On some farms where the acre age in pasture is not adequate to supply good grazing for the herd throughout the season, an addition al acreage should be prepared at once and .seeded between Febru ary 15 and March 15," Arey stated. Because of the likelihood of dry weather during the spring it is ad visable to seed during February from the coast to the mountains. Later seedings . will give satisfac tory results in the mountains." The dairy specialist also advised that old pastures with thin places in'th sod be reworked during Feb ruary. "The.se places should be scarified with a harrow, res.eeded and given a coating of manure. If manure is available the entire pas ture should be given a light coat ing during February. On farms where manure is not available, thin pasture sods can be improved by applying 300 to 400 pounds per acre of b high grade . fertilizer early in March," Arey explained. A comparison of two North Carj olina herds from records of the Dairy Herd Improvement as,s,ocia tion shows the economic value of good pasture. One herd had ade quate pasture and the other had very little. The comparative feed costs per 100 pounds of milk ran close together until May, then the herd with, the good pasture was fed at the cost of 70 cents per 100 pounds of milk while the other herd's cost was $1.17. This wide dif ference continued through October, with one month showing a varia tion1 of 58 cents and $1.29.
