FARM AND DAIRY.
NOTES OF THE WEEK. MINERALS IN PASTURES. “Although in some cases it may be necessary and more practicable to feed minerals in the form of licks to the animals, it must not be forgotten that such methods exercise but little influence on the carrying capacity of the land and cannot be expected to correct or improve the palatability, digestibility or nutritive value of grazing. All these factors are influenced by treatment of the soil. By this method the quantity factor is increased and at the same time the feeding value of the grass.”—“Rhodesian Agricultural Journal.”
