BENEFITS OF RYE AS A WINTER.
COVER CROP.

Southern soils are much In need OF
organic matter or humus. An excel
lent opportunity for providing it is af
forded by rye sown in the fall and
turned under in the spring. Not only
will 1t increase the organic contents
of the soil, but it will conserve plant
food and increase the yields OF sub
sequent crops. 1t uses nitrogen that
would have leached out and would have
been lost during the fall and winter
1t also utilizes the phosphoric- acid and
potash that becomes soluble during the
winter. All these and ther elements
of plant food go into the ground with
the spring plowing and will be releas
ed for the subsequent crops.
Winter legumes are excellent where
they can be grown with success, but II
is much easier to get q stand Of rye
on all kinds of soils and under vari
ous climatic conditions. Rye is in
fact the most dependable crop for
poor soils, and it is the poor soil, OF
course, which needs a winter-crop
most.
Mistakes are sometimes made in a
failure to plow under rye at the right
time. II the spring is dry 1t should
be turned under early, no matter what
its stage Of growth is. The danger,
Of course, is that rye will pump out
too much soil moisture, rendering the
soil hard and lumpy when plowed and
giving the following crop poor show.
II the spring is wet or normal, of
course, the rye should be allowed to
grow as long as possible, since 1t will
be adding benefits to the soil.
Rye being such good soil helper
ought to be given better show than
is usually accorded IT. The seed bed
should be well prepared and fertilzers
should be applied, to both Of whink |,
makes ready response.

LIVE FARM NOTES

Kill the scrub SIRE He has had his
day and then some.
Whether the moon has any effect on
farming has nothing TO do with the
fact that potatoes should be dug On a
clear day when the soil is fairly dry.
Better select your seed corn in the
field. Then you will have a chance TO
see just what kind of stalk the ear
grew on and you will be sure TO Lave
better crop next season.
