DOES 1T PRY TO INOCULATE?

During the fall season OF 1918
the North Carolina Department of
Agriculture distributed among the
farmers of North Caroline a num-
Der of bottles of bure cultures for
the incubation of the different
kinds of leguininous crops seeded
in the fall.
We have uoW received 186 re-
plies from the farmers who got the
material and 176 of these are en-
;husiastic over its use and want
more this season, They all say it
pays big to inoculate and that they
will not SOW clover seed without
incubation.
A large number of the farmers
tested the ipoculation alongside
STRIPS OF land soWed to the same
kind of seed but without the treat
ment and were astvAislled st the
results. Many failed to grow the
clover at all where the seed were
not treated, and all found the
growth many times better where
the incubation was used than where
it was omitted. We were surprised
st the number of places in the
State where the clovers would not
produce a profitable. crop without
incubation.
In the State CT Delaware six
different crops Of crimson clover
pat into the soil an average OF 2G3
pounds Of nitrogen to he acre in
addition to the large amount Ct
humuS added. In.s amount OF hi
trogen is equal to that found in
1900 pounds of nitrate Of soda,
which has a cash value OF $500.
When you recall that clovers de-
rive moss OF their value as soil i'm
provers from inoculetion, the value
OF the use Of the proper legume
bacteria on the clover seed will be-
come apparent.
1t has been found that when the
soil is properly inoculated crimson
clover may be soWed the last of
August or the first of September
and ploWed under in December or
J lary for cotton and still acd
IRON SO to 100 pounds of nitrogen
to the acre. This fact gives Grim
son clover an additional value as a

as a green manure until it had
reached the blooming stage of
worth.
