.LESPE0Eza IS LEGyME
 GROWN OA MaaY SOILS
Steals Nitrogen Frcm the Air and En- riches soii--Nutritious and as Forage Plant It Is Unsurpassed.

Lespedeza or Japan clover is an an nual plant which begins growth early in the spring and continues until killed by frost It is comparatively slow tn growth and natures only one crop in a season It is a legume and like all legumes has the power of taking nitro gen from the air and thereby enrich ing the soil. As a pasture plant Its value is widespread throughout the South. As a hay plant it's value Is only beginning to be realized, although d considerable acreage is now being harvested annually in southern Arkan- sas and in several of the Southern states. In nutritive and feeding value the crop is known to compare well with alfalfa
 Lespedeza grows on all types of soils down to the poorest and is known to withstand severe drouth. It is scat tered along roadsides and in pastures, and due to it's reseeding habits, ire quently enters into Bermuda pastures of it's own free will, thus aking a very desirable combination AS hay crop it is very well adapted to the southern counties of the state, where conditions of soil and climate arc more favorable to its development. The principal limiting factor in the production Of hay is the moisture sup ply. In a dry season the growth is comparatively light on poor soils. For this reasonA bottom land soils which have plenty of moisture will give best results.
 Lespedeza is usually sown in Fep- ruary or March on oats or wheat, at the rate of 1925 pounds to the acre. The seeds are commonly sown broadcast after the small grain is up. After the oats are harvested the clover covers the ground and is ready for harvest in September or October. If provision is made to allow the crop to reseed, the clover will produce an. other crop the following year. It Is frequently necessary to clip back the weeds with the moving machine in or der to help the growing crop. The average yield of lespedeza where grown for hay, ranges from one te two tons per acre Where the stand Is good, ton of cured hay per acre is figured for each six inches that the l moving machine cuts The reason for this high weight is due to the lov' moisture contents of the crop.

Vessel Constructed at Hoquiam to
Have Greatest Carrying Capacity
of Any Like Craft Afloat

Ship building is to be resumed at
the Matthews yards liz Hoquiam, ac-
cording to announcement made this
week by c. Frazier Matthews, with
the construction of a steam schooner
for S. S. Freeman & Company, of
San Francisco, which will have the
largest lumber carrying capacity, L.
100000 feet, of any steam schooner
afioat
A crew already has been started
clearing the yards for the work and
ship carpenters have been put on.
There will be few accommodations for
passengers on the vessel, which is
to be a sister craft to the Daisy Put
man and Daisy Gadsby. 1t will be
used almost exclusively as a lumber
freighter. 1t is expected that it will
leave the ways about June / and be
towed to San Francisco for instala-
tion of machinery.
Following the launching of the big
steam schooner, it is understood, a
number of other vessels, sailing and
steam, will be built at the Matthews
yards.

too, according to report, soon are to
