MOST VALUABLE FARM CROPS
Trouble Experienced In Growing Clio
yer. Alfalfa, Peas, Etc. Where
Not Grown Before.

Legume crops tclover, alfalfa, peas.
etc., are among the most valuable of
farm crops. Trouble Is experienced
at times. however. in growing them
in new agricultural districts or re-
gions where legumes have not been
grown before. This difficulty ofttimes
is due to the absence Of the necessary
tubercle bacteria from the soil in
question. The practice should be fol-
lowed, therefore, of inoculating the
soil or seed when any of these crops
are grown upon ground which has
never grown the crop before.
This incubation may be made by
the use Of soil from field in which
the legume has grown. This soil
should be obtained from the old
legume field and distributed over the
field to be sown in legumes at the
rate Of approximately 300 pounds per
acre, and at once narrowed or disked
in. This operation should take place

OF the squab-raising varieties the
Homer is considered the most popular
variety. The habit Of this bird Of

makes 1t necessary to confine pigeons
purchased from other lofts. The
Csrneaux pigeon has recently become
popular as a squad producer. This
variety is somewhat larger than the
Homer and 1t is stated is about as
prolific. Several other varieties Of
pigeons larger than the Homer are
used on small scale in squad raising.
especially in crossing with the Homer
and Carneaux to increase. the size OF
squads. The Runt is one Of the largest
but is not as prolific or as good a

Some of the other varieties reported
