The Japanese Kudsu Wine )

The Star recently received from M. H. Zigler, formerly of Mena, now located at Huron, 5. D., a clipping from the Farm and Home, setting forth the views of Florida cores pondent regarding the possibilities and merits of the Kudzu vine as a forage crop. The correspondent stated among other things that by July 20 of the second season the plant produced a two-ton cutting, with the prospect of one more such cuttings the same season. The ar ticle was referred to Prof. Earnest Walker of the Arkansas College oi Agriculture, who, in reply says:
 Knowing the habit of the plan1 and it's tremendous vigor and rank ness of growth 1 have no doubt about the quantity of herbage it would produce, but 1 am extremely skepti cal as to the practicability of harvest ing the crop by any ordinary means The plant would likely possess con siderable value for covering vast places, and holding soils inclined t wash and gully, and for forage pur poses when cattle could do the har vesting. On fairly good soils ther, would be a twining mass of herbag' which, 1 should think, would mak' the work of a mower entirely i'm practicable.
 The Kudzu vine is a member oI the Legume family, therefore, lik' the pea, bean, clover, etc. has tn, power of using the atmospheri nitrogen and ultimately adding nitrogen to the soil. It produces large, tuberous root which is peren nial. At the north the top is killet by frost. Southward, on plants tw, or more years old, the older portion of the stem survive the winter. Tht leaves have stalks about ten t twelve inches long supporting three large leaflets.
 The Kudzu is sometimes called "Jack and the Bean-stalk" becaust of its rapid growth. It's botanica name is Pueraria thunbergiana. Il is highly valued and justly so as 2 rapid growing ornamental climber for arbors, screens, porches, etc, transforming such frame work into bowers of shade, beauty and airy comfort.
