this winter In cooperation with local
farm organizations such as Oranges
and clubs 1t has enabled many to
ave the benefit Of teaching that the
Agricultural College has never before
brought directly to them.
Those attending the sessions OF the
short course were members Of the
club and their families. as the women
folks as wen as the men are enthust
astic in their attendance at the leo
lures. Demonstrations were given in
selecting eggs for market. operating
an incubator. mixing poultry rations.
testing soil for acidity. Judging seed
corn, and in comparing different kinda
OF lime. Especial interest was taken
in what Prof w. 7. L Taliaferro. Of
the Agricultural College. had to say Of
the value of iegume crops and lime in
building up the soil for better produo
ton.
He said in part: Nothing will help
more in building up the yielding power
Of the soil than the use Of legums
crops. such as the clovers. alfalfa. COW
peas. yetch and soy beans. These can
be used for turning in as green crops
or In growing heavy sod as the case
may be which flls the soil with humus
and nitrogen plant food. It is not
economy to buy commercial nitrogen
at Is to 20 cents pound when the
same results can be gotten by the use
OF legume crops. at the same time i'm.
proving the notwithstanding power
Of the soil. Any Of these crops can be
easily grown on our Maryland soils.
and with frequent applications Of line
will give most Of the plant food that
our farm crops require.
The mistake, however, Ia often made
Of using too light an application. Not
less than ton Of burned lime Or two
tons OF gToNnd lime stone or oyster
shells should be used per acre. Such
an application as this need not be
given oftener than every once in ave
or six years SO that the cost for lima
would not be more than so to 80 cents
an acre per year.
Tn buying lime It has been found
that If pure burned lime costs s275
per ton at the kiln, then hydrated
lime or Stacked lime should be $21o
and ground limestone $3.50 per ton
What kind you should use depends
entirely upon its quality, price. and
the distance 1t can be hauled to adj
vantage"
