Timber and stock gains clash in farm wood lots
C R Tillotson of the USDA emphasizes wood lots as a wood producer rather than a grazing area. A year of forage returns 25 cents to $1.25 per acre, while a well managed lot yields from one half to one cord of wood. Overgrazed woods die, hogs hinder seedlings, and fences should limit livestock to 2 3 acres for shelter, leaving the rest to grow timber.

Quack Grass Eradication via Paper Patches and Crop Rotation
South Dakota Agricultural college expert Matthew Fowlds recommends tar paper patches to kill quack grass, with four-year rotations of corn oats wheat and sweet clover. After harvest of sweet clover the stubble is plowed, fields dished and cultivated. Alfalfa slows spread but does not kill it. Michigan advice favors shallow August plowing followed by disk work to break sod, then purging roots and spring harrowing, then deep plowing in spring and planting a cultivated crop.
