HENRY SAYS WESTERN
DROUGHT IS PROFITABLE
TO WISCONSIN FARMERS
W. A. Henry, director of the Agricul
tural department at Madison university
sends out the following bulletin. The
most disastrous drought widen ever
afflicted this country now prevails from
Ontario to Kansas and Texas, covering
a region over a thousand miles long or
several hundred miles in width. It in
cludes southern Wisconsin. There is
every prospect of a great shortage of hay
and straw to keep their stock alive next
winter.
A part of Wisconsin has abundant
crops. H‘ the farmers so blessed will
only save the-e, there will be large nion* y
return to them the pre?e;it season. Theie
will Vie call by shippers for t very pound
of tame hay, wild hay and straw that
can be -pared. Many farm* rsby saving
their con foddt r and by cutting wild and
marsh bay. can have large quantities of
the hay and straw to sell. Not a pound
of any kind of teed should be wasted.
Even the lower grades of wild bay and
m irsb hay should be carefully harvested
a id saved for feeding at home lluswin'tr
9> as to sell as much as possible of the
b tter grades. Let the word be passed
f.'om month to mouth so that those
hiving good ro;is may save all they
possibly can of them for sale this fall
and winter.
