"To obviate these dllllcultlea a y- lem of rotation pasturing uenis adopted on Arizonn farms, reports u. W.

Ariz., was a dairy ana atocn tarui of imi acres, all lu alfalfa. The alfalfa was divided Into eight fields of twenty acres each. All these fields were pas tured more or less at different times. "In pasturing, the dairy cows were turned Into the field first. hen they had eaten the best of the feed they were ut Into n new field and other atock is turm-d into the first field to Cleau up the Iced left by the cows. ueu the Uel.1 was well cleaned up this Fec und lot of stuck w as taken o!T, the Held watered and not pastured again until mother crop had matured.

In ortler to keep the fowls from getting into the drinking pan it Is necessary to make some sort of a covering. A frame built of slats nttai lied to a small round Imcr.l at the top and a larger round board placed about a foot above the water piui makes a splendid device. When placed over the pan the chickens have free access to the water through" the sluts, and the water keeps much cooler by being sliaded. The frame cover may easily be lifted off and the water pan cleaned and refilled. ly this arrangement the chickens cannot tip the water over.
