EXTRACTING OIL FROM PEANUTS
BEFORE FEEDING.

II. G. F., Long Branch, N. j., writes
Would the entire peanut ground without
fine oil extracted be superior to the entire
peanut ground and the oil extracted Tor
feeding purposes? Could the entire peanut
ground without the oil extracted he con
strued as an adulteration? Is not the com
. mercially known peanut meal mace from
the entire peanut less a large part OF the
original ell content?
n is not a difficult thing for the
farmer to supply his live stock with
all of the carbohydrates they need. Ma
terial of this character tends TO accu-
roulate on every well-managed farm.
Hence, there is no good end to be serv-
ed by crushing the peanut with the
hull in using for feed without the eA-
traction Of the oil. We are feeding pea
nut meal including the hull here AT the
college at the present time. Naturally
the oil was expressed from this feed.

Soy beans should of course grow very
well on land which is capable of pro-
ducing a good crop of cotton. We be-
lieve IL better, however, to devote the
field to one purpose or the other rather
than mix the two crops. On land where
cotton has been planted in six-foot rows
soy beans might be drilled down the
middle to some advantage. Soy beans
should do very well in most parts of
Georgia. They will yield anywhere
from fifteen to twenty-five bushels of
grain under favorable conditions. Much
depends on the variety grown. We have
obtained the best results with the Mann
moth Yellow.
In planting soy beans we would fer
tilize them with 200 to 800 pounds of
acid phosphate. This should be put I'M
der the drill row at the time of plant
ing It is good practice to lime the
land intended for Soy beans with raw
ground rock at the rate of about 1000
pounds per acre. This should be put on
a few days before the beans are planted
and should be scattered over the surface
of the ground and narrowed in.
You can Judge better than we can as
to the advisability of leaving a stand
of cotton which has been injured by hail.
The degree of injury and the extent OF
the stand should be determining factors

FACTS ABOUT RHODES GRASS.

A. ID. c., Abel, Ga, writes: What do
you know OF Rhodes grass for hay or pas
ture7 l have some seed, but did not want

q pest.
Rhodes grass is of some promise for
hay and pasturage production in your
section Of Georgia. 1t has been Guilt
waited with success in both the eastern
and western coasts of Florida for some
years past. 1t is claimed to make an
abundant yield of hay and to furnish
several cuttings during the course of
year. We think some of the claims made
for it are rather exaggerated, but it has
much promise for the southern part of
Georgia and along the gulf coast, par
ticularly in Florida, for hay and pastur-
age purposes. We believe you will do
well to plant a small area to test it's
merits. Claims have been made that it
will grow as far north as Macon, Mont
gomery, Alabama to Jackson, Miss. 1t
Is a vigorous grower and is said 20 make
an excellent hay. 1t is claimed to be
equal in feeding value to timothy.

You do not state the purpose for

that you plant them I'm drills about thir-

OF 1000 pounds per acre, using the

an avantage to do so. If you cannot

teave IL off, though legumes respond
well TO applications of lime. In addi-
ton. we would advise YOU to put under

seed. Do not let the fertilizer come in

so they will come up about eight or
twelve inches apart. On good soil they

SEEDING BEANS AFTER WINTER
WHEAT.


WHEAT.
w s. H.. Trion, Ca, writes: l have
some wheat sown red clay loan. II prac-
tica! [ would like to SOW some kind OF
bean that will be good for winter after the
wheat is cut. DO you think such thing
would be advisable, and what kind Of
beans should ] plant?
There is no reason why you should
not be able to plant several leguminous
crops after wheat has been harvested. 1t
is desirable. Of course, that the seeding
be done as soon as practicable after
the wheat has been removed from the
land. II seasonal conditions should be
favorable at the time of harvesting the
wheat you can probably disc some OF
these crops into the soil with success.
We have quite often been able to OBJ
tain a satisfactory stand of cowpeas.
for instance. in the manner indicated.
II would seem practical also to plant soy
beans in the same manner. If you desire
to plant such crops as buttr beans, lima
beans or common white field beans we
think it would be better to break the
land, prepare a thoroughly good seed
bed, fertilize at the rate of 200 to 300
pounds of acid phosphate. and SOW the
beans in drills. Lima beans should, Of
course be planted with the eye down.
Field beans will probably make an &C
ceptable crop in your section OF the
state as your elevation is very consid-
cradle. This crop seems TO do best at
elevations of 200 feet and upward. As
YOU probably know, beans of this class
are now being raised to some extent In
north Georgia, and theresis every pros
pect that the area devoted to them will
be considerably increased in the near
future.
