Rape as a pasture Rape is an ex- cellent pasture for sheep and lambs and for cattle that are being fattened, and so far as we can judge from our limited ex- I perience, it will also furnish good pas- ture for swine. The nntritivel ratio ="of green rape. as given` by Wolf; is 1:2 9, while that of red clover in blossom is only l:5.7. - All things considered the value `for fattening is from two to three times greater than that of one cutting of a crop of clover of a similar area. tmaoon _..- _-_L_'_`~_)-..A\' I-~ - - `Clive 1 :m-(`).:-rrlxperience with Rape.

A favorite method with us is to sow a crop of rye in Sep- tember. to cut it when well out in head with the binder -for winter fodder, or when in the blossom, toimake into silage. But it would also serve a good purpose to sow the rye `in August and pasture fall and spring until the first of J une. After the rye ineither case the land is at once prepared for rape. The preparation con- sists in plowing carefully, rollingfas soon as plowed, harrowing once "a week and ` making` the land into drills from 22 to 24 inches apart Just before sowing the rape. When rape is ,grown_ as a catch crop it may be sown broadcast or. in drills after theremoval of the previous crop. When sown broadcast the ground may be turned over with the gang-plow, but when grown in drills and cultivated the ordinary `plow should be used. .
