He wishes to see you, mademoiselle."
Kitty turned back into the room
and Sachio, irritated at the delay,
went so far as to take her by the arm
to induce her to leave the room with
him. She resisted him so vigorously
that for the time he stood back nom
plused.
But at length the girls powers
proved no match for those brought
against her. She was forced from the
room toward the front of the build

Once more Kitty adopted the pol

Count Sachio made no answer to her
biting words. In truth, matters had
not gone so we'll with him as he would
have liked. He had been ordered to
report to his own king, and now must
soon make that report, and certainly
he could not tell of the unqualified

GREEN MANURE EXPERIMENTS
Results Obtained From Different Farm
Stations In North Dakota.


Prepared by North Dakota experiment
statioD.l
There Is q difference of opinion as to
the effect on soil fertility OF allowing
the land TO lie bare. The practice IL
generally thought to be destructive OF
on fallow plats, approximately as
much straw is taken of one acre OF
fallow as Is produced on two acres
continuously cropped. Both OF these
systems are deficient in that no pro-
vision IS made for directly or indirect
ly maintaining soil fertility. A modi-
fled form Of summer tillage is the
blowing under Of IA crop. This prac-
tice Of green manuring, aside from
being partial falow, supplies the
material necessary for restoring or
keeping up the humus content Of the
soil. In this way both soil fertility
and moisture conservation should be
attained.
In the work here reported three
crops have been used as green ma
nures-namely, rye. peas and sweet
clover. Williston does not use sweet
clover. Winter rye is used ut Willis
ton and Dickinson and spring rye at
Edgeley and Hettinger. A supposed
| advantage of winter rye is the fact
that this crop can be plowed under
| earlier In the season. This gives an
| additional month for moisture con-
servation, which is of considerable adj
vantage in the western portion of the
state.
Sweet clover, being a biennial plant,
| is seeded with the grain crop of the
/ previous year Thus no extra cultiva-
/ ton Is required for its production. In
the eastern parts Of the state this
method Of handling the land is prob
ably more nearly like the ordinary
method of handling faIlow than any Of
the other methods of summer tilluge or
green manure except that with the or
binary fallOw weeds may take the
place Of the green manure crops.
These crops are grown in n series OF
four year rotations planned according
to the following general schedule:
Small grain. corn. small grain. green
manure. and then repeated. Another
set OF rotations substitutes summer
tillage for green manure.
From-the standpoint of immediate re.
turns It Is evident that green manuring
as compared with clean fallow has not
increased the yield Of the wheat crop
at any of the stations. Where oats fol-
4 lowed the green manure we note mega
tive results. except at Williston. where
oats after the green manures average
higher than oats after fallow. This
greater advantage In 1913 was due TO
the weeds choking the oats on fallow.
In all probability, with the soil still In
almost its original state Of fertility,
the practice of green manuring will not
materially increase the present yields
produced under the ordinary following
system. While the moisture problem
Is more important than the fertility
problem, as measured by immediate re-
turns. this system will not he generally
practiced with profit Due TO the short
period of the trials, no reliable data can
be given on the matter of residual eff
fects as measured 10y crops grown sew
eral years after the treatment.
