 The nmiiiMr silot in dittricta where labour ia acarce and expuvive, i* the mort 
 profitable method of auH>leineiiting paaturea from the end of June. When the ailo 
 ia not uaed or where greeu feed ia preferred the soiliug crop method ia recoramended. 
 Reaulta at the Dominior Experimental Farma and elsewhere would aeem to indicate: 
 a lf a lf a , vetchea, peaa, oata, clover and com aa the moat suitable cropa for tlie pnrpoae. 
 
 Dairjr farmers are, therefore, recommended to prepare and feed about aa foUowa 
 for each ten cowa in their herd: — 
 
 1. CloTer, one acre: To have been aown with the mixture of peas and oata the 
 iwerioua year aa deacribed below. Feed off June 20 to July 15. 
 
 5. Peaa and oata, one-half acre: Sow 1 bushel peafc, H buahala oata and 5 ponnda 
 red clover aeed about the first week in May, or earlier if poaaible. Feed off July IS 
 to 81. 
 
 3. Peaa and oata, one-half acre: Sow same mixture on another half acre about 
 third week in May. Feed off August 1 to 16. 
 
 4. Com, one-half acre: Sow 10 pounda Longfellow (or other amall variety) in 
 hiUa 36 inches apart each way, or in drills 42 inches apart. Sow third wedi: in May 
 or as early aa possible. Sow on well drained land, clover sod manured at rate of twenty 
 loada (tona) per acre. Feed off Auguat 15 to 30. 
 
 6. Com, one-half acre: Sow 12 pounda Wiaconain No. 7 (or other medium 
 variety) same way as above. Feed off in September. 
 
 For the average 100-acre dairy farm the foregoing soiling crops can be readily 
 managed in a three-year rotation and combined with a four-year (main) rotation 
 advantageoualy. The three-year rotation would thus proride feed for summer and 
 rutumn and a amall amount of pasture. The four-year rotation area would supply 
 forage for winter and spring, and pasture for apring and summer. The following 
 diagram will indicate what might be the arrangement of the fields and the cropa 
 thereon. In the case of a 100-acre farm where in addition to orchards, gardena, etc, 
 about 60 acres could be brought under the plough, fields Ml, M2, M3, and M4 would 
 be under the four-year rotation and would be ciopped as indicated. Fields SI, S2, and 
 SS would be under the three-year rotation and would be cropped aa indicated.
