Farm uses brome grass to cut erosion on Morris County land
On a 240 acre Morris County farm, 20 acres were planted to brome grass with oats as a nurse crop and sweet clover added later to fix nitrogen. The fibrous roots reduce erosion. cattle and draft horses grazed native pasture while brome grass seeded. 53 pounds of seed per acre were harvested July 15 and erosion now negligible. Additional erosion resistant crops include 26 acres alfalfa and 21 acres sweet clover under a Soil Conservation Service agreement with farmer W. Tischhauser.

Looking Ahead in Farm Marketing
Prices for hog feed soar due to drought conditions. Farmers question when to sell as hog numbers rise. 1935 to 1936 shows more hogs on farms, spring farrowing up 29 percent, with a 14 percent fall farrow rise expected. Hog prices may peak this fall with higher prices likely after winter, suggesting light weights should sell soon while heavier hogs and young pigs could be held through winter and grazed next summer for fattening in August.
Kansas to see its largest wheat acreage this fall
Hubert L. Collins of the federal crop reporting service says Kansas will probably seed its largest wheat acreage this fall. He notes recent rains improve soil moisture and high wheat prices encourage growers as many corn farmers switch to small grain after three years of corn failure.
