-<*■
Winter hays, grown as a cover
crop, provide a good teed for cattle
during the following spring and
slimmer.
Moreover, a good supply of win
tor-grown hay will keep dairymen
from running out of roughage when
dry weather cuts short the summer
hay crops, says John Arey, exten •
si on dairyman at State College.
It has been found in experiments
that when cows are fed liberally on
good roughage and one-half a nor
mal grain ration, milk production is
only about 10 per cent lower than
when a full grain allowance is fed,
Arey pointed out.
Since roughage is so much cheap
er than grain, he added, the dairy
man can save more on his feed costs
by feeding roughage than he will
lose by the slight decrease in milk
production.
Anotner aavaniage in winter nays
is the fact that they can be grown
between October and May, at a time
when the land is not being used
for cotton, tobacco, corn, or other
summer crops.
A good hay crop will protect the
land in winter by checking erosion
and leaching. Arey added.
Mixtures of oats, barley, wheat,
vetch, and winter peas will produce
a better hay than either will when
grown alone. The seeding date in
North Carolina is from October 1
to 20.
Arey recommended the following
seed mitures for one acre: two bush
els of Norton oats, one bushel of
beardless barley, onelhalf bushel of
I urple straw or red-heart wheat, and
20 pounds of Austrian winter peas
or 15 pounds of hairy vetch.
These varieties will mature at a
bout the same time and give a yield
oi two to three tons of hay per acre
when planted on good soil.
The best quality hay will be se
emed if it is cut while the cereals
arc in the milk stage.

One of the reasons why the Illuminating Engineeiing
