week in York It was mostly being chopped and put in silos as here are lots of snags in the stuff is hard to blow It takes lots of dribbling into the blower to stop and mi even temperament if the lor is enjoying two holidays i During his absence Mrs William Ash and Mrs John deliveries power water Kit in build up pipes plug Cutting and blowing where hay is on the wet side helps A moisture content of around fifty percent is ideal from a quality standpoint but at that stage its tough sort of rubber and it doesnt go through machinery easily With more moisture tip mound or per cent quality is still good it wont develop a bad smell and it chops and blows bettor The real danger is in letting liny dry out ton much for Too frequently it almost dry enough to bale before the forage gets to it At this stage excessive heating la almost sure to happen II becomes do a of packing chop very fine add water fill continuously and seal with plastic Even then some heating will occur which protein and digestibility drops as well The color changes to blown as this happens and it goes lo grey or black if heating is really chopped bay will be green feel soft and moist and when compressed will partly

ago with narrow punch ed falls and poor branch ing Iris propagate too free ly and are hard to kill and as a result of this too many of the older var ieties are still very much in evidence July Is the time to get rid of these older ones and invest in modern iris beauty The term bearded re fers to the strip of hairy growth on the three divi sions of the flowers that usually droop down and are called falls or dropping petals The beard could also be called an iris light house because It serves as a signal or guide to in sects seeking nectar lead ing them to the store hid den deep in the heart of the flower Not long after Ihc flow have faded away the roots die off the plants go into a partial rest per iod even though the tops remain green This Is best lime the year to divide move or plant new varieties Although iris can be successfully planted any time blooming and before the end of Septem ber those planted in July August and are almost cer tain lo flower next year The roots of iris are cor rectly called rhizomes multiply so rapidly that the clumps need to be taken up separated every three or four years It left undivided he blooms will diminish In number qua lity size with every si acred lug year To divide Iris understand he meaning of word rhl fleshy I from fiid Mils hard to believe but Its actually a fact that the rhizomes travel as they grow A close examina tion of the growing end will show that it creeps or moves horizontally While its true iris are reasonably tough peren nials It doesnt pay to treat them roughly when are removed from the ground wash oft alt ad hering soil and carefully examine the roots Any rhi zome that is soft or spongy has probably been attack ed by borers and should be destroyed by burning For the new plants choose healthy firm sections with four arms each Next cut away half the leaves with a pair of sharp scissors or shears rather than tear ing the foliage with your hands This will usually re sult in open wounds through which disease can easily gain a foothold in the plant The I halt the leaf cut away Is to cut down on the a evaporation of moisture from the leaves which would cause the plants to In cutting the rhizomes up into sections Ive always found that it pays to use a sharp knife rather than pulling or breaking Ihcm apart llhizomes which con tain any cuts or injuries should be exposed to the sunlight for four or five hours before replanting Dusting the wounds with sulphur is a further In surance against disease Although the this doesnt mean that you dig a tiny hole It should be at least eight lo ten Inches
