GOOD QUALITIES OF THE SOY
BEAN.
Value of the Crop for Hog Feed and
for Hay-Plant Now.

Value Of the Crop for Hog Feed and
for Hay-Plant Now.
Messrs Editors: The soy bean fills
a long-felt need of the Southern
farmer. 1t Is the most easily grown
of the several crops that stand at
the top Of the list as food for hogs
1t Is not rival Of the peanut, the
other plant which shares with the
soy bean the honor Of being the fu-
ture mainstay Of pork production
in the South. Both need to be
grown on the same farm. A patch
OF Spanish peanuts planted early and
a patch Of soy beans grazed while
the pods are young, afford support
for hogs as early as August. After
that time there should be ready for
use succession Of Spanish peanuts
and soy beans. and for use as late
as December and January, there is
the running peanut.
Compared with the cowpea, the
soy bean Is usually a more satisfac-
tory hog feed. 1t is richer in food
value than the cowpea, but both are
rich enough. A greater advantage
OF the soy bean is the fact that It
can be used through a long period
in the fall. the shattered seed re-
naming sound on the ground for a
month or more, while cowpeas un-
der the same conditions would mil
dew in the pod. or if shattered, they
would more readily sprout. More
over, some soils. for example lime
prairie lands. do not as a rule pro-
duce large yields Of cowpea seed
the plant tending to run to vine. On
prairie soils the soy bean succeeds
finely and bears an abundant seed
crop, even though the land be SO
rich or SO moist as to cause cow
peas to run to vines. Best of all.
soy beans are cut and threshed in
stead of being picked.
The soy bean as a hay plant has
not SO many points Of superiority
over the cOwpea as when the two
are compared as to seed production
Here the strong point Of the soy
bean is the fact that there is no
tangling in the curing Of the hay.
But the soy bean Is at a disadyan-
tage here in making a slightly more
stemmy hay. Moreover, eved when
grown Tor hay. the soy bean is best
planted In rows and cultivat ed. 1t

with the prolific varieties, especially
when moisture conditions are favor
able, the corn plant may produce one
or more branches from it's lower
nodes or joints. These branches are
called suckers. AS general rule
suckers do not produce ears, or if
they do. these ears are small nub-
bins. With some of the varieties
having a strong tendency to produce
more than one ear to the stalk, the
suckers frequently produce ears of
fair size. and add considerably to
the yield.
On rich land, during favorable
moisture conditions, if the corn is
planted too thin. there is decided
tendency in some varieties to pro-
duce these suckers or branches from
the lower joints of the main stalk.
There is some difference of opinion
as to whether it pays to remove these
suckers or allow them to grow. II
weather conditions could be foretold
and it could be known that later in
the season the stalks already on the
ground would not have more than
barely sufficient moisture and plant
food, it would possibly pay to remove
these suckers. On the other hand,
if the corn is not thick enough to
utilize all the moisture and plant
food available and these conditions
remain throughout the growing sea-
son Of the crop. then it will not pay
to remove the suckers, for while the
yield Of ears from them will be small
their presence will probably not les
sen the yield of the main stalks and
the stover will be worth something
il saved for forage.
In view of these uncertainties, the
consensus of opinion among expert
menters and close observers is that
it does not pay to spend time and
labor removing these suckers, taking
one year with another. 1t must be
admitted, however, that probably the
majority Of farmers believe it best
to remove them.
Thinning the Crop.
In discussing the planting Of the
crop we devoted considerable atten-
tion to the distance or thickness of
planting. and laid down about the
only rule which is Of any real value,
namely, that the estimated fertility
of the land or the number Of bush
els it is expected to produce per acre
be the guide. 1t takes stalks of corn
to produce ears, and ears to make
bushels Of corn. therefore, If large
yield is to be made, the stalks must
be on the land. 1t is an easy matter
to figure the number of stalks on an
acre for any distance of planting and
with known variety the average
number Of ears required to make
bushel, and in this way a man can
leave on the land about the full
number Of stalks which he thinks
the land will mature under average
conditions. At this season Of the
year a man has little better oppor-
tunity to judge of the probable yield
than at planting time; but, of course,
the question is still one largely un-
known, and thinning must depend
on the judgment OF the grower With
the custom of planting in drills in
stead Of checking, which is common
in the South, one stalk at a place is
desirable, but IL skip or break oc-
