of the highlights from his address we consider ourselves princip ally interested in dairying our young cattle ure pastured away from home on property rented an nually because we hove not been able to purchase such property this docs not lend itself to an im proved pasture programme we try to pacify our happy holsteins during the pasture season with the cheapest feed we know of namely juicy-

there is a better oasturc plant than i would appreciate knowing vkkut it 1 realize that many will bdt agree wrth me and still consltfev orchard grass as a weed i do not advise you to try this great

produce juicy luscious leaves that the cat tle will devour providing he docs not- get over 0 to 8 inches tall you havetb be ready to chop him down if he starts to run away and brother la it fun to put

that ingredient which mukes the soil dark loose and triable with a high moisture and fertility holding rapacity high humus soil is the most pro ductive type for better pasture-or- any other crop yes a highly pro ductivity soil is the best bank ac cqimt a farmer can hsve one on which there is no income tax the- more land you can have in better hoy and pasture the easier it is to keep your farm at home farms they are our homes and bus inesses if we do not keep them producing better and more hay and pasture and prevent erosion end leaching they will gradually ran down the rivers to the seas and leave us desolate i feel i should sound a word of warning in case you think better pastures are an easy cureall for our economic plight as the prices of many things we sell are going down and costs are constant or ris ing better psatares cost money it osto moneyto build tip soil fertil ity grass and clover seed costs money so do fencing and man agement but tho harvesting is ideal yea you hive to
