COVER THAT FIELD

Nothing will pay bigger DIVIDENDS
than the sowing of cover crops which
will hold the soil and save valuable
fertility. Even the gardeners on
high priced land are using carefully
selected cover crops to hold the soil
and give it some additional fertility.
The following article from the South
ern Agriculturist shows the value OF
these cover crops:
The automobile has caused a grave
shortage of stable manure among
gardeners. In the past these thrifty
men hauled manure from the livery
and private stables in Louisville tie
whole year Their high-priCed lar
could be kept in high state of cult
walton by liberal use of manure and
the turning under of crops of rye.
These men ere now experimenting
with rapid growing legume cover
crops. They must have both humus
and an abundance of cheap nitrogen
if they are to continue to grow fine
potatoes, onions and other vege-
tables. Last autumn about 200 acres
were sown with a mixture of crimson
clover, hairy vetch and sweet clover
as demonstration. This mixture
was made up of 10 pounds of vetch,
10 pounds Of crimson clover and 5
pounds of sweet clover per acre all
carefully inoculated.
The last of April the writer visited
with F. E. Merriman, county agent, q
ten acre demonstration plot of this
mixture on the farm of Mr.. I. b
| Miller at Medora. The field was
sown during the first few days of last
October. This was late sowing fol
crimson clover in this latitude, but
the field was exquisite.
The party was interested in tbs
heavy mass Of green manure which
would soon be turned under the soil
The party was also interested il
what might have been happening tC
the roots of these inoculated leg
umes. A big vigorous plant of hairy
vetch was dug up for inspection. 1t
roots showed such a mass of nodules
they were taken to the pump for
careful bath. AS the earth wa
washed away great clusters of nod
ules could be seen. One cluster clos,
