SoHNeeds Nitrogen and Organic Matter

There is one crop of great value that
by farmers, says ]. c. Beavers, of Pur-
due university. This crop belongs to
the leguminous class of plants and
deserves place in Indiana agriculture
on account of the heterogeneous food it
furnishes, and because IL increases
rather than diminishes the supply of
nitrogen in the soil On account of
these advantages the farmers of the
state are justified in growing many
more acres of soy beans than have
been grown
The greatest need of most Indiana
soil is more nitrogen and organic mat
ter. Through careless methods of
management and poor crop rotations.
man in three brief generations has al
most exhausted what il took nature
centuries to accumulate. These eX-
haustive practices can not long con-
tinue if our agriculture is TO be perma-
nent. The growing of such crops as
! soy beans will do much toward i'm
! proving thin soils and maintaining
those soils which are still fertile
1t is not always easy for the farmer
to understand just why it is that a
crop like soy beans will produce a
| food containing more heterogeneous sub.
at the same time leave the soil in bet.

a short time ago. who grew two acres
of soy beans last year. A neighoor
who was in the field with us said.
Look here; l want you to tell me why
il is that this wheat here where those
soy beans grew last year is four inches
higher than where corn was grown" 1t
took but little explanation TO answer
his question. Last year when We
planted the beans We used about ten
pounds of inoculating soil. which was
mixed with the beans just before drill
ing. This soil was taken from a field
where soy beans were grown the year
before that was thoroughly inoculated.
Ii contained millions of bacteria which
inoculate the soy beans. These little
microscopic organisms had done the
work. They had stocked the roots
with wart-like growth from the size
of a pea to a small marble. They had
done their share in producing a crop
that sold for $40 an acre. and they
had increased the supply of nitrogen
in the soil that is making a better
growth of wheat.
All this has been accomplished by
bacteria. So all bacteria are not to be
feared. This kind takes nitrogen out
of teh air and gives il to the plant,
and the plant furnishes it to man and
the land.
There are a great many farmers in
Indiana who would do we'll to coop
crate with nature and get good val
