BuCKWREAr As A GREEN MANURE.

The Southampton. Mass. correspondent
of the New England Homestead has the
following upon the above topic: Green
buckwheat contains notable quantities of
potash. phosphoric acid and nitrogen. and
is useiully and chcaply employed rs
green manure. though not rs valuable for
that purpose rs clover. But there is this
advantage in growing buckwheat-it will
thrive and flourish on land SO impover-
ished as to refuse to grow clover. Ii is ex-
tensively used in different parts of Europe.
and especially in France. rs an improver
of the SOIL and with satisfactory results.
Its use in this country has been somewhat
limited In my experience. and have
sometimes grown rs many as 10 or 20
acres in one season, ! have invariably
found bone dust an important auxiliary in
producing \ rank growth of stalks and
leaves. On light soils two or three crops
plowed down in the green state will work
Il wonderful transformation in their'ap-
pearance and texture. rendering them
dark and loamy.
have observed for many years the ei-
feet of this plant as green manure upon
the sandy lands of the Atlantic coast, and
have no hesitation in recommending its
uSV upon ithts III tHt NphhNNtNUe
valley. In few instances have heard
the assertion made that no percep;ible
benefit was derived from blowing it In-
der. Butupon inquiry, it was ascertained
that the foliage was buried in the soil
eight or ten inches deep. This is a mis-
take; it should never be covered more
than three or four inches deep. BY shall
low blowing. fermentation speedily en-
a.
essential to SUGGESTS secured. Indeed
this is true of all green manures. Long
practice has demonstrated this fact.
Some novices in green manuring have
plowed deeply and Immediately seeded
the land with a grain crop, and because
the resulting growth was not satisfactory,
have hastily arrived at the conclusion
that green manuring is n humbug. Had
they observed the conditions indispensable
to success in this method of fertilizing the
soil, they would have succeeded. A ton
of green buckwheat does not vary materi-
ally in the quantity Of potash, phosphoric
acid and nitrogen which it contains from II
ton of average stable manure, and num-
Der of tons in the green state, by proper
management, can be grown on an acre OF
land in a single season.
There can be no doubt in the mind of
my person familiar with the most ap-
proved processes that the light lands of
the valley can be made highly productive
by green manuring alone. And buck
wheat is the best crop to begin with on
lands much worn by constant cropping.
Anyway it is an inexpensive method, and
those farmers who are so unfortunate as
to possess large tracts of sandy land with
a scarcity of manure to apply to it. should
by all means sow buckwheat AS u renovat-
ing and enriching crop.
