Talks to Farmers
BY T.F. PECK
COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE

regard to crimson clover. | am
pleased to note this interest, be-
cause crimson clover provides the
most practical and economical
method of supplying nitrogen for
the soil. Practically all of our
soils are deficient in this important
element of plant food, and it is the
most expensive purchased in com
mercial fertilizer.
Fifteen pounds of crimson clover
per acre viii seed the ground. 1t
is claimed by authorities that a
crop of crimson clover will put
from go to rs pounds of nitrogen
per acre into the ground. 1t is q
good cover crop for lana during
the winter, keeps land from wash
ing, and furnishes some winter pas
ture when the land is dry enough
for stock to be turned on it. The
crop can be cut for hay or seed, but
If possible stock should be taken
off of it when the spring growth
starts, and the crop turned under
about the 10th of May, in time to
prepare and plant in corn or peas
orsoy beans,
In preparing the land good
seed bed should be made, just as for
clover, grass or any small grain
crop, [ have seeded land in corn
to crimson clover during August,
where the corn had not been blown
down. In some corn crops that |
have seen this year that would not
be possible. There was too much
filth on the ground-weeds and
grass. If the coin has been we'll
cultivated there should not be
enough weeds and grass to intefere.
This was done with a one-horse
cultivator.
For hay, crimson clover is not as
good as red clover, but when posi-
BILE the crop should be turned under
for soil food. There is another ad-
vantage in growing crimson clover
no better provision can be made
for the honey bee in early spring,
when stimulating feeding is essen
tiaI to insure strong colonies to
gather the honey from the later
bloom.
Daring the war period, farmers
were urged to produce food to the
limit, and they responded nobly.
But in SO doing they made heavy
drains on their soils, and put very
little back. Most of them abandon
ed for the time being their regular
rotations. But we can not contin-
ne to feed out of crib without
emptyingit. We can not TAKE from
our soils plant food and not return
it in some form without disastrous
results. Nature provides the means
for maintaining the fertility of oul
soils, if we will employ them
Legumes are the least expensive
and the most valuable means OF
restoring both the nitrogen and
humus, and crimson clover is one
of the very best, because il can be
grown during the winter months
and leave the land free during the
summer months to produce a mon
ey crop for market.
We are having rains at intervals
now which ought to enable farmere
to prepare good seed beds and get
their crimson clover seeded during
the month of August. With the
crimson clover / like to seed three.
fourths of bushel of rye per acre
Farmers, like other people, are
entitled to a vacation. People il
the city go to the country and the
country people like to 20 to town
Why not plan your vacation at the
time for the big fairs, where you
can meet all your friends and at the
same time see the progress that IL
