maintained pasture the year round.

about three times the normal rate of

and roughage complete the balanc-
ed ration. The.....point is that the cost
of production would have been con-
siderable higher without the pasture.
This record, it should lie remem-
bered, was made in the Plains of
West Texas. A longer growing sea
son and more regular rainfall hi oth
er parts of the Southwest'ynake it
easier to have a year-round- 'pasture
than in the West. Winter pasture is-
relatively more valuable than sum-
mer pasture, and male lie provided
either in pi-nhiment 1 pastures or’
planted fields.
The common cereals are the favor-
its stand-by for winter pastures in the
-Southwest, since the seed are cheap
anil’ easily available, and everybody
knows bow to plant them. Rye
grass is becoming increasingly popu-
lar, aud supplies more grazing per
acre than either wheat, oats, rye or
barley afoue. Where. grain is sown
solely for pasturage, a good man
farmers prefer, a mixture., of. two or
more kinds and a.^heavier seeding
than 'for grain, is preferable. The
reason is obvious—they each grow
better at different seasons and a
mixture, therefore, gives a . " longer
grazing season. The "mixture ' may.
be cut for ha'y -in the dough stage.
For full and early winter 'hurley
usually provides . more pasturage,
while Wheat, oats “and rye produce:
more grazing during the winter aud
early spring months. Rye grass eon--
tin lies to provide green pasture later
in spring than cereals.
Griiin' for harvest may be pastur-
ed- without reducing the yield. • In
fact, pasturing under, proper eondi
t-ions tends to increase the yield by
'encouraging shading. .The Denton
(Texas) experiment station found
by uueamilling tests that grain yields
were increased by pasturing up to
March 1, and grazing for another
twenty days not reduce the final yield
of grnih. v
