FARM, 1914. 



Some changes in the farm practice have been made during the 

 past year with the view of producing as nearly as possible all feed re- 

 quired. To this end there has been more ground devoted to corn 

 and alfalfa, necessitating only the jjurchase of middlings, cotton 

 seed and a part of the oat supply. 



Summer silage has been substituted for soilage to supplement our 

 insufficient pastures, thereby ettecting much saving of labor. 



Following is an inventory of livestock and farm crops, December 

 31. 



FARM, 1915. 



During the past year it was decided to make the support of the 

 Hog Cholera Vaccine plant the chief function of the farm, and to 

 that end the herd of cattle, all but eight cows, was disposed of. This 

 necessitated some changes in the crop scheme and interrupted the 

 six course rotation which we have been following. I'lans for the 

 coming season include increasing the acreage devoted to alfalfa, 

 root crops and soy beans.
