RAPE FOR PASTURE.
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. It I beneficial when the anl?
