Of the various kinds of hay
grown in Oregon at the present
tune, none excel and few approach
in excellence, the comparatively
new variety known as vetch. So
far the growing of this hay haa
been merely experimental, but the
results have been so favorable that
this fall haa witnessed an increase
in the acreage sown in the vicinity
of Buena Vista and in the other
counties
Vetch is a kind of wild, rank pea
vine, and because of the mattad
condition of it when cut. it is diffi
cult to handle, and 20 cents per
bushel is charged for N threshing.
The seed yield ia from SO to 35
bushela per acre, and one I.inn
county farmer reports nine tons of
hav from one acre of vetch.
As a feed for cattle vetch is said
to equal both srain and other hay
combined; while for hog feed it is
superior to anything known.
The eastern" states and Eastern
Oregon want vetch seed. Portland
dealers are already offering to con
tract the Willamette valley crop
