BEST FORAGE PLANT.
: Washington Stat Experiment S tailor
Mak Extentiva Invettlgatlon.
In order to diicovcr a forage plant
hioh will grow and yield profitable
crop in the o-called "dry ection"
of th state, th staff of the Statt
J College Expsrimtnt Station ha car
ried on xteniv investigation at
both the local and iub-tation during
' the pat year. Scores of forage plant
hav been olanted and toted, and at
Ihc present itage of thit txperimenta
Ition. it i known that milo maiz
iJcruiaUm corn, artichokes, Kaffir
corn, ana tmber cane corn arc among
the belt tdaptcd plants for "dry
larming
Th work of tb ub itation t Con
nell has been carried along four lines:
Firtt, there hat been an effort to de
termine the bett method oi handling
tummer fallow, including a tudy of
th effect of certain tool; econd,
there ha been a study of the adapta
bility of variou well-known dry linoi
forage plant to central Washington
condition; third, a ttudy of the effect
of growin a cultivated crop, in place
of the tummer fallow, upon the wheat
crop; fourth, there hat been a ttudy of
the adaptability and methodt of teed
inir of well-known dry land grasses,
and legumet.
Although the past teason has been
an exceptionally dry one. and the re-
aillto rmitd not he oynorto trt idnu
I forage crop in at favorable a light as
the average season would, yet several
li . .a
olantt showed up very promising
Among thete were Jerusalem corn,
milo maize, Kaffir corn, artichokes
and amber cane corn. Another prom
ising one was a tmall, early maturing
variety of dent corn.
Other plantt tried were cow peas,
toy beans, chick pea, common millet,
Japanese millet, Hungarian millet,
golden millet, common field peat,
kale, rape, popcorn and flint corn.
On September 10 the Milo maize
hnwed itself to be the best drouth
resister. This plant grows very simi
lar to corn, except that it scatters a
great deal more, and is more leafy.
Jerutalem corn and Kaffir corn are
both very similar in appearance to
ommon corn, being about midway
-etween common corn and Milo maize
.a buthinett. Their seed, however, is
borne in a large and fairly compact
head, or bunch on the end of the stalk.
They yield quite heavily in most
placet, snd judging from this year's
experience, would mature a fair ouan
tity of teed at Connell, which makes
very useful feed for poultry and
twine.
The difference in the showing of
ferusalem and Kaffir corn and Milo
maize wat quite noticeable. While
the leavet of the two former plants
did not dry up, the inner plants of the
olols were about one-third smaller in
size than the plantt on the outer edge
This showed that their growth had
leen materially cherked bv the short
age of moisture. The trial leaves it
nder the impression that Jerusalem
id Kaffir corn are but poorly adapt
I to central Washington conditions.
Dent corn made almost perfect
stand, but the growth was scanty, and
.inly a tmall quantity of nubbins ma
tured. The present, season's growth could
not be considered a proved crop, but
corn of the same strain grown on land
adjoining the experiment station last
vear was a fair crop, and may be taken
is a fairly good demonstration o'
what could be done with dent corn
on any good, dry land farm. The
seed, however, would have to be
idanted to the locality.
The flint corn and the popcorn
nade a good stand, and matured well,
nit their growth was so tmall that
hey could not be given consideration
n comparison with dent corn. The
artichokes made an excellent stand,
ind showed remarkable ability to con
-inue their growth throughout the en
ire drv season.
Whether it would pay to utilize
rain land for the growth of these
oots is an open question. The other
lants thst were used made to light a
rrowth thit teason that further tria'
will be necessary before they can be
considered as even promising.
Of the non-cultivated forage plants,
he most promising was the alfalfa
This made a fairly good stand and
ontinued to grow slowly throughout
he entire season. On September 10
t stood about eighteen inches or two
feet high. As the first season is needed
to establish alfalfa, this is considem
in excellent showing. The alfalfa was
seeded with a grain drill, which sl
owed the seed to be conducted down
into the shoes of the drill, so that it
was deposited in moist toil. It is
questionable whether a good stand
:ou!d be secured by broadcast seed
ng and harrowing in.
Hairy vetch made a poor stand, but
I promising growth. The tenacitv
with which they cling to the soil when
once established makes it rather "tte
tionable whether it would pay to teed
rood grain land to vetch, unless
permanent pasture is desired.
Of the grasses, the most oromisins
was the slender wheat grass; smooth
brome grass. Neither of these grasses.
however, showed ud as we II as the
alfalfa. Another season's growth is
needed to determine anything definite
egarding their production. Other
grasses tried were meadow fescue, or
chard Rrass, tall oat grass. None of
these grasses made a show worthy of
mention. Since the past season has
been exceptionally dry, they will be
given another trial.
The only suggestions the station
has to make to farmers regarding
these, forage crops are that alfalfa,
brome grass, acclimated dent corn,
Milo maize, Jerusalem corn and Kaffir
corn are worthy of trial in a small
way. The farmer had better learn
w to handle them, however, before:
trying them on a large scale.
