in 1050 a good catch of seeds was secured on this partlculor 24 acre field owing to the scarcity of pasture in the late summer the owner of necesit pastured 18 acnes of the field but fenced off fl acres adjoin ing the bujdi following our visit to the field in late april we re ported there is still a good nand jn both sections of the field but there l an almost unbelievabe difference in the lgor and rrowth of the two sections we also stated in the same article judging by present appearances we would ex pect quite a difference in the fields of ha off the two sections of the same field thanks to the farm ownfr w v are now able to pre sent the final stor the two section were baled sepirauh on the lfl acre section which was pastured he got a total of 3m uiles while on the acre section
