Crimson clover should be sown NJ
the rate of ten to fifteen pounds per
acre. from August to October, or when
the first good autumn rains set in. III
is commonly sown in corn or other cui-
tivated crops following the last cuiti-
walton either just before or just a1ter
a penetrating rain. lnocuiation
should be practiced on fields where the
crop has not been grown previously.
Crimson clover furnishes late fall
and winter pasture of good quality
and it is sometimes cut for hay in the
spring. It's principal value, however, is
to turn under for Il green manure crop.
1t fits fairly well into the cotton-crop-
ping system for this use.
Bur Glover.
Bur clover is q winter-growing le-
gume which is adapted as winter
cover crop in the section from Tennes-
see and North Carolina southwark. Ii
does not furnish hay crop but affords
good winter and spring pasture for cat
tie, sheep and hogs. When cleaned
seed are used incubation should be
practiced, otherwise the particles OF
soil which the burs pick up carry sufii-
Gent bacteria for incubation.
Peanuts.
The use of peanuts is fast gaining
ground throughout the South both for
hay and for pasture. The crop does
well on most sandy soils when they are
plentifully supplied with lime. The
Spanish variety is best adapted for use
as hay and pasturage. The peanut Is
a legume which fits well into rotations
with cotton or corn as principal crops.
They are frequently planted in rows
alternately with the rows of corn.
About two bushels per acre should be
planted. and in the northern part OF
the Southern States they should be
shelled previous to- planting. They
make splendid pasturage for hogs,
which eat both vines and nuts. They
also make hay of good quality which is
relished by both cattle and sheep.
Florida Beggar Weed.
The Florida beggar weed is an an
nual forage plant adapted to the light
sandy soils of Florida and southern
Alabama and Georgia. Like crab
grass, it develops late in the season,
and so is very useful for pasturage
when other pasture plants are at their
poorest. When 20 or 80 pounds per
acre of rough seed are sown after
early crops, such as oats and melons
