OF INTEREST TO THE FARMERS

vetch fields should receive liberal
application of these ingredients. This
applies more to sandy than to clay
soils, and farmers must be governed
by the types of soil on which vetch
is seeded. 1t is safe to say that vetcG
will succeed anywhere that COW peas
succeed. if well inoculated.
For best results vetch and oats
should be harvested when the vetch
is in full bloom, but the vetch may
be left standing until few of the
lower pods have ripened we'll, and
when harvested some OF these seed
Will shatter out and will thus reseed
the land to some extent. Again, if
vetch is harvested just as the first
blooms appear and the stubble left
undisturbed for several weeks. a new
growth will put out and reseed the
field.
We shall never have a large acre
age in vetch until every farmer grows
his own seed, which can easily be
done by allowing the vetch to reach
almost maturity, and the oats are ripe
enough to harvest for seed, when the
two may be harvested together with a
binder and threshed together.

taken in starting the clover by first
lining the soil we'll and supplying
the inoculation to the burs before

lsh Bermuda grass pasture. the soil
should be we'll prepared for best re-
suits early in spring, If seed are to
be used instead of roots, but at prac,
ideally any time of the year if roots
are to be planted. Bermuda grass is
easily propagated by roots, and on
farms where it is growing on ter,
races or ditch-banks may be plowed
up and pieces of roots distributed in
burrows two to three feet apart, drop
ping the roots a foot o: more apart
in every other lay as ground is brok-
en-. and covering them from two to
four inches deep.
Roots may be washed out, run
through feed cutter, sown broad
cast and plowed under for quick re-
ground at once.
If seed are used. the seeding should
he done in March or April at the rate
OF 10 pounds per acre, on a we'll pre-.
pared seed bed and covered very
lightly with smoothing harrow, or
pressed into the soil with a heavy
roller. Seed do not furnish best re-
suits.
When the Bermuda is we'll estab-

clover is to scarrify the Bermuda 500
with disc harrow. working in a ton or
more Of lime. if soil is acid and seed
ing the inoculated burs at the rate
OF at least five bushels per acre (seven
to ten bushels is even better) and
then cover with light harrow.
Bermuda pastures should be fer
tilted every few years, with acid
phosphate, and potash (when potash
is available), and should be done in
late fall or early spring, by blowing
the Bermuda under to give the grass
a. new growth, as Bermuda will do
better if worked once in a while than

plowing should be done in early fall.
Another method Of seeding clover
on Bermuda sod is cheaply done by
running burrows with round pointed
plow, about two feet apart or nearer
II seed are abundant. then scatter the
burs in the burrows and leave them
undisturDed unless they have been in
oculated In case incubation is nee,
essary the seed should be lightly COW
cred, and if inoculated soil can be
secured the soil may be dropped on

One good fertile acre OF Bermuda

least eight months of the year. and
double that number of hogs and with
favorable seasons, may be grazed
practically every month in coast coun-
tries

TO quality, weight and grade.
The steers would be contracted for
in August to be weighed out and
shipped from Oct. l to 18th
Frost comes a little earlier in
North Carolina and Tennessee and
causes the grass to go back. hence
these parties demand the steers to be
delivered early in October.

Concrete Construction on the Farm

There are great many things the
farmer wants to prepare to do this
summer in the way of repair work
and construction work In his plans
he should not overlook the adyant-
ages of concrete as a building ma
terial II he wants permanence and
durability, he can find it for many
things in concrete. Lumber is now
very high. and labor is scarce. so it
is great advantage to be able to do
very little repair work The best way
TO keep from continuous repair work
is to build good permanent fixtures on
the farm. 1t might be to your ad-
vantage TO investigate the advantages
OF putting in concrete trough, tank,
manure pit, or even s;lo or mod
ern barn.

lated on securing DR.. Taylor The
