Pumlshta an Eacellent Peraea Per Cattle, 8hp and Hog. Aava paHture crop for abeep, boga and cattle ra la of conaldurable val ue. It la greatly relished and produce rapid gabia both m growing and fat tening itock, write a correspondent of the Iowa Homestead. The crop may be paatured a varlona eragee of Ita development When eaten down before U baa made a maximum growth It will grow up again With mora or leaa vigor. Uut In any event It la beat not to be gin pasturing until . It baa made growth of several ; Inches. Whether more food la obtained by thla method thau by allowing tba rape to attain Ita full growth before turning atock on to It la not easy to aay. Aa a rale, .how. ever, the latter plan la tha moat prof itable to follow when abeep grae upon It, aa It la quite poaalble for abeep to eat It down eo low aa to injure Ita ca pacity for further growth. When cattle are pastured on rape they waate mora by trampling than do abeep or boga. , Uenally dairy cowa ought not to be paatured on rape, aa It haa a tendency to taint tha milk, but It may tie cut and fed to them after each period of milking. On tha Whole, aheep do better on rape than do either hoga or cattle. Neither aheep nor cattle ahould be turned on rape when they are very hungry or when the crop la wet with dew or rain, aa they may eat more of It than they ahould, become bloated and die In a abort time If hot looked after. ; Anlmnla that have not been accue touted to rape paHture may not take to It at Drat, but they anon learn to Ilka It, and once they acquire a taste for It they will thrive on It and never tire of it.
