l. IME-SWEET CLOVER
HELP SAND LANDS

Urbana H., Aug. 12-"When lime
and sweet clover are properly used
on such soil as the blow sand lands
in Henderson county, the crop yield
may easily be doubled" said Prof.
n. J. Snider of the University of Hi.
nois today. His statement is of gen.
eral interest because of the vast
stretches of sand land in this state
particularly along the Mississippi, II
linois and Wabash, and other riv.
erS.
In 1914 the University of Illinois
began extensive experiments on a 90
acre tract of blow sand in Henderson
county to determine the fertility of
this type of land. Results at the
end of six years show that an appli
cation of four tons of limestone per
acre is the first essential to reclaim
ing the land. Limestone, however, is
no less essential than sweet clover
grown as green manure crop.
"7Alfalfa does exceptionally well on
this land when once it is properly
started" added Snider. "On lined
land the yields have been as high as
four and one-half tons of hay per
acre"
The university found that rye does
well on this type of land also. In
1920, untreated land yielded thirteen
bushels of rye. while land which had
received lime and sweet clover treat
ment yielded twenty-nine bushels.

Hightover, according to Captain of

asked by him why he did not first go
to the police with his information a
