A Costly Mile.

The new Washington street subway,
Boston, which passes through the
heart Of the shopping district, is con-
sidered to be the most costly mile of
underground railway in the world. Its
construction and equipment has cost
$10,000,000, or about $4,000 per lineal
foot. The first section of Boston's
modern system OF rapid transit, con.
sisting of subway tunnels, was opened
about fourteen years ago. This was
followed by the erection a few years
later Of the elevated road; and sub.
sequently to that the system was ex.
tended by the construction Of the East
Boston tunnel under the harbor. The
opening of the Washington street
tunnel marks the latest, and one Of
the most important extensions.

n SPRING VETCH.

The spring vetch, or tares, of Bib
lical mention, is a crop which during
the last two years has come into con-
siderable prominence on the Pacific
Coast, especially in Western Oregon,
where it is being used very extensively
for a variety of farm purposes, among
which may be mentioned p%asturage,
hay, silage and as green fertilizer. In
it's variety of uses it stands in the
same class of plants as the Canadian
field pea and alfalfa. AS a plant of all
around usefulness it is perhaps not
exceeded by any, excepting only the
Canadian field pea. While this plant
is now being grown most extensively
in Western Oregon, it is none the less
exceedingly we'll adapted to many sec
lions of California. At the Tulare Elk
pertinent Station in 1908 the plant pro-
duced, with a single irrigation, as high
as $500 pounds of hay per acre.
The particular value of this plant
lies in the fact that it has a feeding
value little, if any, inferior to alfalfa:
After a cutting of hay is taken OF, II
irrigation can be practiced, the field
NAV be irrigated and a considerable
growth obtained from a second crop,
which can be used as pasturage in the
late summer at a time when green
forage is not over abundant. Inc
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1909-03-15

crop which is cut can be utilized either
in the shape of dry hay or silage. The
vetch should be sown in the early fall
or winter and with it should be sown
about thirty to forty pounds of grain,
preferably rye, or a tall growing oat,
for the purpose of holding it up, so
that it can be cut with a machine.
The crop will mature for hay at the
same time the grain natures, and a
much larger yield of fodder car be OBJ
tanned than by grain hay alone. 1t is
quite a common practice in Califor-
mia to allow barley to volunteer for
hay purposes, after having produced a
crop of grain the preceding year. The
product from the land could be very
much increased by br%oadcasting about
so pounds of the spring vetch (vicia
sativa) on the grain land and disking
it in with the volunteer grain.
AS in the case of the Canadian field
pea, red clover and alfalfa, the vetch
is a soil enricher, and yet by this 1t
should not be understood that the crop
itself needs no fertilizer. This mis-
taken idea, often held, is based upon
an entirely erroneous understanding OF
certain IuuudIu6uCdl ldCI0 VI d6llSuI
tural science. The class of plants to
which the vetch belongs are nitrogen
gatherers, but for every pound of nit
rogen which the plant thus stores
from the air, it withdraws from the
soil more than a pound of potash and
considerable phosphoric acid. These
two materials do not exist in the air,
and therefore, to obtain the highest
efficiency of the vetch as a soil en-.
richer they must be artificially added
to the soil. Otherwise, this crop, as
the pea crop, will make heavy drafts
upon the soil. Unless these two min
eral elements in an available form are
within easy reach of the plant it can
not perform it's mission of nitrogen
storing. The vetch must secure potash
and p%hosphoric acid as do all other
plants, and no superabundance of one
element can make up for the lack OF
another. Each must be present in we'll
balanced proportions, otherwise there
cannot be a full growth.
1t is ever we'll sometimes to add a
limited amount of nitrogen, If this ele-
ment has been seriously exhausted.
The plant does not begin it's nitrogen
storing until it's leaves develop, and
one must make sure that there is a
sufficiency of plant food, namely, nit
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1909-03-15

rogen, potash and phosphoric acid, to
enable the plant to reach that stage in
a vigorous, healthy condition. Gener-
ally speaking, the more literally the
crop is supplied with the mineral fer
t~ilizers, potash and phosphoric acid, the
more effective will be the action of the
plant in the accumulation of nitrogen,
and consequently, the greater it's eff
cheney as a fertilizer. Potash and phos-
phoric acid used on this crop should
be applied to the soil previous to seed
ing, either broadcast Or in drills. A
favorable mixture to use is 800 pounds
of acid phosphate, and 120 pounds OF
muriate or sulphate of potash.
On sandy soils the potash may be
increased, as these soils are usually
deficient in potash, while on clay soils
the phosphoric acid may b: increased.
Even though a surplus of these mate
rails may be used, they are not lost,
but changed into forms still available
for plant use at a subsequent period.
Such fertilizers with this crop will be
valuable whether it is to be used as
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1909-03-15

a hay crop, a forage crop, or as a fer
tilizer for the improvement of the
soil. In any case, after the vetch is
cut or has been pastured, there still
remains a heavy growth of root, which
is valuable as a fertilizing material.
The crop is destined to be one of the
most valuable which the California
general farmer can grow. Particularly
from the fact that it will serve as a
medium for maintaining the humus
condition to a very much higher point
than has been the case heretofore, and
this is the most vital factor in Califor-
mia agriculture today.
