peculiar attributes of the Buick have
been always linked with the Buick
Value-In-Head motors. During all of
these years OF continuous manufsc
ture the Buick Motor Company have
lnever swerved for single season from
heir unyielding belief in the fact that
the Buick Value-In-Head motor pro-
duces more power and more RELIABLE
ity at a less expenditure for gasoline
and upkeep than any other type. They
are, in fact, pioneer manufacturers
of the Value-In-Head motor and in
the past few years we have seen a
wClderful increase in the output, not
only by them, but by other manufac
turers CT a similar type motor

that the Buick Motor Company have

VEGETABLE MATTER
TO INCREASE CROPS
Liberal Supply of HumuS Is One
of Greatest Factors.
Many Enterprsing Farmers Are Grow
Ing Leguminous Crops and Turn
ing Them Under-Method
Adopted on Virginia Farm.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
In many sections Of the Eastern
States where the soil has become worn
by continual cropping, the addition Of
liberal supply Of humus for vege-
table matter is one Of he greatest
factors necessary TO Increase the pro-
ductiOn of crops. To supply this need
many enterprlsing farmers are grow
ing legume crops and turning them
under. That the farmers who have
adopted this practice are being amply
repaid Is shown by the increased yields
which they are able to secure.
On one farm in Caroline County,
Va, the regular practice had been to
grow corn on the land one year in
three and to allow each field to "rest"
during the other two years. The "rest-
ing" process was to allow weeds and
trash to grow up and thus accumu-
late sufficient fertility for another
crop of corn. With this system Of
cropping the yield Of corn ranged gem
orally from II to 1S bushels.
The Improvement Of the soil on this
farm began first by planting one of the
poorest fields to cowpeas. The cow
peas were cut for hay and the stubble
dsl;ed and seeded to crimson clover.
The following spring the crimson clo-
yer crop was turned under and the
field planted to corn. At the last work
ing of the corn, crimson clover was
again Sown. The following spring the
same process was repeated by turning
under the crimson clover and planting
corn again on the same land. This
practice was continued for five years.
Tn. third year the yield of corn was
about 40 bushels to the acre and the
fifth year the crop made a yield Of 30
bushels to the acre.
Up to the time of the change in the
cropping system. 1t had been the rcgu-
lar practice to apply 200 pounds of l6
per cent acid phosphate per acre 10
each crop grown. Under that system,
however crop yields could not he main
tanned. After the change in cropping
system. the same amount Of acid
phosphate was applied each year to
The corn crop. The only real change
in method was to grow first a crop Of
cowpeas and after that to turn under
a catch crop of crimson clover in prep
arafion for the corn each year. The
Improvement in soil conditions Is fur
Their evident from the fact that after
the fifth consecutive corn crop, wheat
was Sown and a yield of % bushels
per acre WAS harvested. While these
Yields are not extremely large, II was
possible by simple methods and with
comparatively small expense to in
crease the producing capacity of some
very poor land to about three times
what 1t had formerly been.

SILAGE USED IN
FEEDING CATTLE
Corn Fodder Is Gradually Being
Replaced in Corn Belt
Sections.
MOST ECONOMICAL PRACTICE
Not Only is Corn Plant More Fully
Utilized, but Animals Do Better
Than OIL Dry Ration--SiIo Is
of Especial Value.

prepared by the United States Depart
nent OF Agricultural
In many sections of the corn belt
corn fodder is being replaced gradu-
Sly by silage in the ration for beef
animals. Where there are enough ami
snuls to Justify the building of silo
t1c feeding Of siage Is usually the
more economical practice Of the two,
a& much larger proportion of the
slower can be utilized as silage than
otherwise. Not only is the corn plant
more fully utilized, but cattle usually
40 better on sllage than on a dry ra-
ton.
Expensive Feed.
Slage because of the grain that it
contains and because Of the expense of
putting it up, is relatively expensive
feed: consequently IN localities where
sarge amounts Of cheap, rough feeds
are available the silo may not always
pr0vc economical. However, when
such roughage is scarce and high
priced the feeding Of silage usually
win pay. This would be especially
trae if. instead of cutting their high
.'>t-yiclding corn. the farmers habitu-
atty aJuId select that part of the crop
having the least grain. The slo is Of
