It was indicated that some new forage varieties could be expected on the market within the next year or two, that would be super- ior from the standpoint of survival in our wetter soils, Professor Fulkerson emphasized the need to re- duce the competition as much as ible in. the establishment of new forage seedlings. Where a compan: {ion crop of spring grain is used, he suggested sowing the grain in 14 inch rows, with the result that there would be better penetration of light to the new seedlings. He did indicate that there would be some loss in grain yield, but this would not be as great as might be expect- ed, because there would be increased stooling/ of the grain in the wideprows. This would be attribftgble to the fact that more light would Ipenetrate to the crown of the grain plant. From the standpoiht- of winter survival, Professor Fulkerson emphasized the need to leave a good amount of top growth on our- hay fields in the fall. This has the effect 40f holding the snow ard decreases the amount of freezing at ground level.
