SOY BEANS OR COW PEAS WHICH,
Some Advantages OF The Soy Bean
over Cow Peas as a Soil
Inprover.
NICHOLAS SCEMITZ,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Since the soy bean Is coming into
prominence In this State many farm
ers are beginning to ASH the question,
rs it better to grow soy beans or
cow peas?"
Which Is best depends upon the soil
and the climate and the purpose for
which the crop is grown Soy beans
can never take place of cow peas on
poor, sandy soil. For this soil nothing
has yet been found equal to the COW
peas. On the heavier clay soils of the
State soy beans are ordinarily better
suited than the COW peas.
Soy beans will yield as much or
more hay per acre than the cow peas.
and the quality of the hay is better on
account of the, soy beans retaining
their leaves much better than the COW
peas in the curing. Soy bean hay also
cures much more rapidly than COW pea
hay and is damaged less by rain.
Another advantage of the soy beans
is that they will yield anywhere from
10 to IS bushels of seed per acre. which
can be harvested and threshed with
the same machinery and as easily as
wheat. Cow pea seed will deteriorate
in case 1t is subjected to a week or
10 days Of wet weather after It has
ripened, while the soy bean is not
damaged under these conditions on ac-
count Of shedding the water quite
readily
The place of the soy bean in the
farm rotation will always be that of
fertilizing crop as well as q hay
crop. On the Eastern Shore and in
Southern Maryland, however, where
wheat is not paying crop and straw
is not essential for bedding, the soy
bean may replace wheat az q ready
money crop. the seed of the better
varieties now selling for from $3.50
to $500 per bushel.
There are many varieties of soy
Bbeans, and In the success with the
crop depends largely upon growing the
varieties best adapted to local condt
lions. There ere certain varieties
however. which viii do well almost any
where in this State outside of the
mountain section. There are: WI
son. Medium Yellew, Sable. HabeE.
land. Virginia, Cloud, Ebony. Picking,
and Taha. These varieties are ali good
seed and hay producers, excepting the
Picking, which u better suited to seed
production and not SO well to the pro
duction Of hay On account Of Its not
growing 40 large as the other varieties,
although on good soil 1t will yield two
tons Of hay to the acre.

The farmer must determine fl
himself what are the needs Of HI
particular soil. There are some gen.
raj indications which may be help.
By looking carefully at the crop of
wheat, for instance: poor growth of
straw would indicate lack Of nitrogen,
shriveled grain and heads not well
illed would indicate lack of phosphor-
ic acid. and weak straw, one that
lodges easily, indicates lack of pot
ash. Thus he can determine just what
will bring him profitable returns for

plant foods.
