This extract from a statement made
by a former farm tenant employee,
now farm owner, reviews a relation
ship between owner and tenant that a
great many persons on both sides of
the farm-landlord situation may well
envy. There is possibly no subject
connected with the business of farm
ing which leads to as many misunder-
standings, dissatisfacticns and mutual
losses as the management of farm by
a nonowner. Somebody has said that
nothing short of application of the
golden rule would ever bring about sat-
isfactory arrangements between the
owner and occupant of farm, and
yet, in this case, there was nothing
eleemosynary in the arrangement.
Tested by Fifteen Years. Trial.
The man who made the statement
quoted above was for a number of
years the manager of one of two ordi-
nary-siZed hog farms owned by a man
in Illinois, and the plan under which
he was engaged as farm manager has
been followed by the owner with al
most unfailing success for more than
fifteen years. Briefly, the plan was
nothing more or less than a straight
annual salary which included tenant

provided the manure is well handled.
When the entire crop is plowed under,
more beneficial and lasting effect is
obtained, but this advantage is Lot
sufficiently great to equal the feeding
value of the cowpea.
Plow Under Entire Crop.
Light or sandy soils that have been
cropped for long time and need
humus receive greater benefit from
blowing under the whole crop. When,
therefore, the improvement of the land
is the sole object, the entire crop
should be plowed under to obtain the
greatest value. In utilizing the entire
crop for soil Improvement, it is best
to plow it under when green, before
being killed by frost. The green
plants decay more readily and are su-
perior to dry plants in their fertilizing
effect.
The results of analyses made by the
North Carolina agricultural expert
ment station show that one ton of
cowpea hay contains At pounds of
nitrogen, 10 pounds of phosphoric
acid and 20 pounds of potash.

C0WPEA USEFUL
To HELP SOILS
Crop Increases ProductivenesS
and. Also improves General
Physical Condition.
GREATLY BENEFITS ORCHARDS
About IS Per Cent of Fertilizing Value
of Crop Is Contained in Hay
and is Per Cent in the
Roots and Stubble.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The ease with which cOwpeaS are
grown and their marked effect on sue
ceediny crops have made them one of
the most popular crops grown for soil
Improvement. Besides increasing the
productiveness of the soil, the bulletin
says. the cOwpea also improves its
general physical condition making
heavy clay soils more open and sandy
soils more compact. The cowpea has
the distinct advantage of making a
good growth on soils which will not
produce profitable yields of other le-
gumeS or cereals. 1t is an excellent
green-manure crop for vineyards and
orchards.
Plow Under StubbIe.
Except on the poorer soils, results
indicate that it is decidedly more prof
liable to utilize the cowpea as nay
or pasture and then plow under the
stubble than it is to pillow under the
entire crop. About S5 per cent of
the fertilizing and soil-improving val
ue of the cowpea is contained in the
hay and about 10 per cent IN the roots
and stubble. Feeding experiments in
dicate that much of the fertilizing
value of feeds is recovered in the
manure. 1t is possible, therefore, to
obtain the feeding value of the cow
pea as hay or pasture, and, in return
ing the manure to the soil. to save
