making it available as plant food. In
this respect they rank close to clover
and alfalfa and have the additional adj
vantage of being able to grow on land
where no one would even think Of SOW
ing alfalfa.
Like the other legumeS, they may
need to have the soil inoculated with
bacteria, and this may be done either
by scattering dirt from a good cowpea
field over the patch to be sown or prob
ably by scattering the manure of ami
mails fed on cowpea hay. When inocu-
lated they will fix as much nitrogen in
the soil in 60 to 10 days as clover Will
In eighteen months.
The nodules on the roots Of cow
pea, the top of which was thirteen
inches high and bore ten pods, are
shown in the accompanying picture.
On stronger land the yield Of peas was
less per plant and there were fewer
nodules on the roots, owing to the fact
that the richer soil went more to the
development of big vines, some Of
them being four feet long. From this
It is easily seen that the fertilizing
value of the root decreases as the soil
increases In richness, while the con-
trary is true Of the fertilizing value Of
the top.
The picture shows more plainly than
can be told in words the benefit to be
derived by leaving the cowpea roots in
the ground when the crop is harvested.
In order to prevent as much as posi-
BILE the waste of nitrogen by evapora
ton and the washing Of soil by storms
the field can be seeded to rye immedi-
ately after harvest. The rye will alb
sorb the fertilizing properties as they
become free and keep them in storage
till spring, when it can be plowed I'M
der, giving the soil not only the fertil
ity gathered by cowpeas but also that
gathered by the rye, with the addition
of humus, of which our poorer fields
are greatly in need.
CowpeaS will not grow in a cold soil,
but will lie there and soon rot For
this reason they should not be planted
until two or thee weeks after corn
planting time. stir UP a good seed
bed and dou3ie the rows with a corn
planter, put in shallow and SOW five
to eight quarts per acre. These will
have to be cultivated two or three
times, but you should not pillow them
while they are wet either from rain or
dew or the dirt will stick to them and
they will rot If you use the drill SOW
three to five pecks per acre, putting
them about one and one-half inches
deep. They will need no further cult
vation unless there comes a rain before
they get through the ground. In case
Of rain harrow lightly to break the
crust or most of them will fail to get
through.

DURUM WHEAT.
A Grain That Is Steadily Increasing 10
Popularity.

A Grain That Is Steadily Increasing %
Popularity.
There is a steadily increasing pro
duction Of durum wheat in northern
Minnesota and North Dakota and in
the arid or semiarid sections of other
states.
The big Touring mills have not as yet
adapted their machinery to the proper
grinding of durum wheat, says an ex-
pert. They find the grain too rich IN
gluten and too hard for their present
mstallment of rollers. The elevator
men don't handle it freely because 1t
necessitates special Ne. But the ex-
porters take 1t eagerly.
Durum is sometimes called macaroni
wheat because it's main use up to this
time has been for the manufacture of
macaroni The French, however, who
are accounted the best cooks in the
world, have employed it quite extern
sively in breadmaking, and it is as
serted that the bread made from it is
most nutritious as well as light and
appetizing. There is no reason why it
should not be.
Gluten is a muscle former. In 100
ounces of lean beefsteak there are
eighteen parts of muscle formers. In
100 ounces of ordinary bread there are
seven to eight ounces Of muscle form
ers, in 100 ounces Of potatoes two
ounces, in 100 ounces OF milk four, but
In 100 ounces of macaroni or bread
made from durum wheat there are
said to be from eighteen to twenty
ounces of muscle forming material.
Admitting the food value of this va
riety of wheat, the temptation to the
farmer to whose land it is adapted
is almost irresistible when a wheat to
plant is chosen. 1t is a plant that
stands drought much better than other
wheat. 1t is so hardy and thrifty
that it is usually exempt from rust
and smut and bugs.
The average yield is high, often from
so to 100 per cent greater than that of
the old varieties of wheat grown in
the same district. 1t seems certain
that durum is destined to prove a
blessing to the farmers.
