"GROW NITROGEN" Is
THE 1920 APPEAL
Thousands of Tons of Costly
Fertilizer in Air Over
Every Acre.
BY w. C. FRAZIER,
Experiment Station Of the
University of Wisconsin.


For centuries farmers have counted
legumes among their most important
crops. They are valuable forage
crops, both on account of their high
protein or nitrogen content, which
makes them useful in building up mus
cular and other protein tissue, and be-
cause Of their richness in lime, which
makes them valuable for growing an
imals and those which are pregnant or
giving milk.
But this is not the only advantage
in growing legumes. Under the prop
er conditions, the growth of legumes
increases the fertility of the soil by
increasing one Of the essential ele-
ments in the soil nitrogen. In the air
over every acre Of land there are mil
lions of pounds Of nitrogen.
Form Partnership With Legume e. Co,
The legume plant itself is, like other
plants, unable to use any Of this i'm
mense store Of nitrogen, but when
the Iegume forms a partnership with
the little plants, the legume bacteria,
the atmospheric nitrogen is made avail
able. The bacteria gain from the part
nership by a betterment of their living
conditions; they make their home in
nodules on the roots Of the legume
plant and they obtain food from the
plant Juices. On the other hand, it
is through the bacteria that nitrogen

made ready for the legume plant to
use.
Legume & Co. then is cooper
ative concern, working for the bene-
fit of all members of the firm. Gain
in nitrogen for the legumo means add
ed fertility for the farm and profit
for the farmer, so, after all, the farm
err is the one who makes the most
from the partnership. He certainly
is the one who loses the most if there
is no partnership for then the legume
plant takes its nitrogen from the soil,
robbing the fertility to that extent
InocuIate SEED or Soil.
1t is up to the farmer, then, as
business proposition, to help along
the useful firm of Legume & Co. In the
first place, if there is to be a partner
ship. the members must be present to
form if.
The bacteria are not always in the
soil, ready to enter the roots of the
legume plant and form nodules. In
OculatiOn, or the introduction of the
proper bacteria along with the legume
seed or into the soil. ia the first essen
tial if the bacteria are not present.
Particular About Their Company.
The bacteria are particular about
the plant with which they will work.
SOvbean bacteria will not form nod
uleS on alfalfa roots, nor will alfalfa
bacteria work with the red clover
plant. The right bacteria and plant
must be brought together. A good
general rule for helping the partner
ship is that conditions that favor the
growth of the legume plant are favor
able for the bacteria. If alfalfa is
grown, a well-limed Or neutral soil
will favor both plant and bacteria !;
lupines and lupine bacteria will toler
ate an acid soil. Good preparation
and care of the land are as necessary
as with any other crop.
Legume & Co. are a great help in
conserving nitrogen on the farm. Are
they helping you?

Air Stunts.

Are birds Of the air jealous Of air.
planes, a question mooted among
naturalisis, has been answered in the
Affirmative to hundreds of Catasau-
quass who witnessed the antics OF
monster hawk that attempted TO out
do the stunts of an aviator here.
The human flyer had circled over
the town nearly fifteen minutes,
when suddenly pair of hawks APP
peared at great height close to the
aviator and apparently, according to
their position, intently watching the
latter's evolutions. Then one of the
birds made a dive toward the earth
and in the sight of great crowd of
people who were viewing the flyers
msneuyers executed a series that
soon turned the attention Of the
spectators from the aviator to the
hawk, which did the spiral glide, the
loop-the-loop, the dip Of death and
many other feats.
The hawk kept up its performance
as long as the aviator was in sight,
and when the latter flew away the
bird rejoined its mate aud disap-
peared amid the applause of the
crowd.-New York Evening Sun.
