Grow Soy Beans to Keep
Legume In Rotation

The growing of soy. beans where
clover has winter killed" is being
practiced by a number of Indiana
farmers this year, according to W.
A. Ostrander of the soils and
crops extension staff, Purdue uni
versity. This is a good practice.
he says, because legumes are kept
in the rotation. Some of the
points which he enumerated in
favor of soy beans this year fol
low:
Legume hay can be supplied by
SOW beans where clover has been
killed.
There is plenty of seed at a fair
price.
Soy beans may be planted after
corn.
They need very little attention.
Soy bean stubble IS a favora BILE
place to SOW wheat.
A legume is kept in the rotation.
Soy beans may be planted as late
as the middle of June, but earlier
planting will give better returns.
They may be sown solid with the
wheat drill at the rate of one
bushel per acre Another way is to
use the corn planter planting the
rows "a to IS inches apart, a half
bushel per acre. Hollybrooks have
probably given best results in Indi-
ana for late planting and Ito San
for early. The latter bean natures

SUMMER CARE OF
ASPARAGUS BED

Even in the older ard well estab-
lished asparagus bed, cutting of
shoots should cease by the last of
June. This allows the shoots TO
grow into healthy vigorous plants
so that food may be manufactured
by the leaves to be stored in the
roots; then a good crop of shoots
may be secured next season, say
Purdue university vegetable gard
ening specialists.
Keep all weeds from the aspara-
gus plantation and conserve mos
ture for the use of the plants by
cultivating thoroughly at least
once a week all through the sum
mer
Asparagus beetles are likely to
prove troublesome, but are easily
controlled by spraying with arsen-
ate of lead. six tablespoonful to a
gallon of water. If you have only a
few plants in the backyard garden,
the adult beetles may be picked off
by hand and if the slugs or larvae
are shaken from the plants on a
hot day. they will generally perish
before they can crawl back to feed.
In the fall after the berries have
turned red, it is best to cut and
burn the tops to prevent the spread
of asparagus rust. The whole
asparagus bed should then receive
a heavy mulch of barnyard manure
that may be left on all winter and
spaded under around the plants in
the spring.
