Why You Should Plant a
Cover Crop.

The problem of farming is not
unlike the biblical story of the
men who were given the several
talents. Some improved and gain
ed, while others failing TO take ad-
vantage of the opportunities OF
fered them lost even that which
they had. 1t is the right of no
man to mine his soil of the ele-
ments OF plant food, thereby, ieav-
ing his children as an heritage a
worn and impoverished farm; it is
the duty of the farmer by judi
cious cultivation of the soil, with
proper methods of rotation of crops
including the family of leGumes,
with more livestock to included in
the farming system to leave to the
coming generations acres that are
both fertile and productive.
1t is estimated that there is over
every acre of land about 81 900,
900, worth of nitrogen in the form
of gas. This plant food can be
fixed in the soil, only through the
agency of the germ that attaches
itself To the roots of such crops as
cowpeas, soy-beans, lespedeza, i'll
the summer; and crimson clover,
and the vetches. in TIE winter.
These crops are called leGumes.
One of these crops turned under
fix in the soil about $500 worth
Of nitrogen, valuing nitrogen at
SIS per pound. If the crop is cut
for hay, there remains to turn
under about one third of the origin
al amount, which is about 81. SC
worth of nitrogen.
Supposing that a farmer had
grown a crop of peas in the sum-
mer on his land, he has enough
nitrogen in the soil to grown q
good crop of oats. If he plows
his land and allows it to remain
fallow during the winter through
the ravages of rain, sun and other
Identifying agencies hehhas lost
perhaps. enough plant food to raise
a good of oats. In farming 10 be
successful the same adage may be
applicable as i'll horse raising, "
Feed the horse and work him. Z"
This question of oats for a cover
crop Is especially imperative TO the
farmer this season. as the corn
crop in many cases was n failure
on account of the drouth and too,
the drain of the European war OH
feed -stuf will individually cause
the price of feed TO soar. This
same war will cause the price OF
meats to be higher, and here is
where the farmer can on a safe
basis carry more livestock to meet
these prices.
There should be plans made each
year to put one third of the total
Abbeville progress. (Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, La.) 1913-1944, 1915-10-16

Mccormack Delights
With Familiar Songs

Assisted by Donald McBeatb, violinist,
John Mccormack appeared in recital at
the National Theater last evening, Civ
ing the promised program of ballads and
familiar songs.
Mr.. Mccormack sings not merely for
the song, not merely for the certain
standards of music which have been set,
but for his audience. His first considera-
ton is the wish of those for whom he
sings, for he Is a real troubador. His
voice and manner are peculiarly suited to
the singing of ballads, and he succeeds
through the choice Of his programs In
reaching a great portion of music loving
humanity who, unwilling. or too self
conscious to attend the strictly formal
musical, made up of selections which are
both technically and totally strange,
flock willing to hear those songs with
which they have been familiar since
childhood.
The program opened with Adelaide. "
OF Beethoven. and included besides the
ballads promised, the encores, II Hear
a Thrush At Eve" In My Little Gray
Home In the West" "Ballynure." Mol
~ Brannigan." Mother O. Nine" and
II Hear You Calling Me-
including Rogers "Wie genlied." Bee
thovens "Minuet," and the Meditation

companist F.. Y.

business would have continued it's

now claim they made 1t had never

tfat the regular theatrical people
who have entered tho picture game
intend to make 1t a permanent busi-
ness. All of them will tell you that
there will be revival in their old
line.
when it comes they will return to
the old Held. Some may retain in
tcrest in the pictures as a side line,
but the bulk OF the business will be
left to what / have termed the legit-
mate motion picture people. One
thing that impresses this idea upon
my mind is the failure of the new
comcrs to keep UP with the regulars
In the erection and enlargement of
studios.
There will be another class of pro-
ducers who will eventually succumb
to the legitimate producers. The
game has become overcrowded and
the returns have been ruinously i'm
paired by the encroachment OF peo-
pie of limited or no experience, but
who have succeeded in persuading
financial backing. Some have start
ed seriously and honestly. Others
have depended upon what Is known
on the stage as the angel game.
There have been many wrecks.
and many more are to follow. They
will be supplanted, but the supply of
angels will run out. The initial
cash outlay Is so great that It Is
not as easy, even at the present time

1t is to get them into the old theatri-
cal business
