SPLENDID FEED FOR HOGS FROM SPRING DOWNS CROP
Reape’s spring down forage proves valuable for hogs at Olio experiment station. It provides palatable nutritious feed all season when not overgrazed. In a 129 day trial the crop valued hog forage at 77 87 dollars, replacing subcent shares in ration with corn at 1.12 a bushel and tankage at 00 a ton. Hogs also received a daily grain ration about 28 percent of live weight. Seed from April to mid July, broadcast or drilled, needs 5-8 pounds per acre for broadcasting and 2-3 pounds in rows 24-28 inches apart. With good soil and early cultivation, ready for pasture in ten weeks.
