yer. The various vetches are held in
widespread favor, different varieties
being employed according to climate
and crop conditions.
When to Sow Cover Crop.
The time of planting and the best
crop to use is matter which local
conditions must dictate. Along the
north Atlantic coast it is considered
best to get these crops in from the
first to the middle of August, while
in the extreme South the planting may
be deferred to early October In the
extreme North hairy vetch is favored
as a legume. cover or green manure
crop, but rye is also largely planted.
From middle Pennsylvania to the
north Alabama line crimson clover
gives good results. In the extreme
South bur clover, vetch and crimson
clover are used, as well as velvet beans
and COW peas.
Wherever clean cultivation is prac-
ticed the soil is likely to be in shape
for broadcasting the seed. If conven-
lent, il can be narrowed in. In or
chards a light narrowing or disking
may be employed If the ground is free
from sod Care must. of course. be
taken not to injure the roots. The
crop is usually plowed under in the
spring, but this is not always done
with orchards. Data collected in all
parts of the United States shows a
general benefit from this form of ag-
riculture
Cover crops are Of especial value to
small gardeners and truckers, who
often find it both difficult and expen-
sive to obtain stable manure They
add the humus which is so necessary
to maintain a good physical condition
Of the soil. Wherever there is a va
cant place in the garden a few seeds
Of rye. veteh, clover, etc, may be
sown and raked in. If suitable rota-
ton of crops is followed. all parts of
the garden may be covered with a
green manure crop once every two or
three years.

Marion, Ohio Jan. 11.-If President
elect Harding has his way the in
auguraton Of March a. next, will be
as devoid OF frills as frontier we'd
ding.
Having overturned plans Tor a re-
vival Of the inaugural ball and
spectacular inaugural parade, he in
dicated today that so far as he con-
slstently could. he would keep away
from whatever crowds assembled in
Washington for the event and make
the change Of administration just as
a matter Of taking the executives Of
fices under new management.
The president-elects preference was
made known in a telegram he sent
last night to inaugural officials in
Washington. asking that in the interest
OF public thrift, The ball, the parade
and every other show Of pomp and
festiHty be omitted. Instead Of TAX
ing the oath from specially built
platform on the capital steps, he sug.
gested that II be administered quick
" within the capitol itself and then
that he be left free 10 go TO work
