PLANTS THAT HAVE
FERTILIZER FACTORIES
ON THEIR ROOTS

Suppose you go out to the cowpea
or soy bean field and pull up a stalk
by is roots. No doubt, clinging to it's
roots, you will find number of small
knots ranging in size from one
twentieth to one-third inch in dia-
meter. They look rather like little
rough-skined peas. These little knots
on the roots are called noduls or tu-
bercles. Inside each one are a great
many small germs or bacteria. These
nodules are what call little "fertil-
izer factories"
How do these little fertilizer fac
tories do their work and what kind of
fertilizer do they make? Well, the air
is nearly four-fifths nitrogen, and we
know that nitrogen is one of the most
important plant foods. Now these
bacteria in the nodules can and do
take nitrogen from the air. They store
it up in the plant. Then these nitro
gen-stuffed plants are plowed into
the land and so make the land rich.
Plants or crops that have the abil-
ity to take nitrogen from the air are
called legumes. The legume family
is rather large, including clovers, alf-
alfa, cowpeas, soy beans, velvet
beans, vetch, etc. All of them enrich
the land by the fertilizer factories
on their roots.
The bacteria or germs that live in
the nodules must be present in the
land before the nodules themselves
will develope. Therefore in some soils
nodules will not develope because
the bacteria are not there. But we
can put the bacteria in such soils by
what is called soil incubation, or by
inoclulating the seed of the legume
crop.
The next time you go out in q
field where legume plant is growing
find out for yourselves about these
little fertilizer factories. And please
encourage your father to SOW more
clover, vetch, and alfalfa this fall
In this way he can put some tens o1
thousands of these little "fertilize1
factories" to work for him MAKING
his land rich.-Uncle p. F., in TIL,

MUCH OLD COTTON
HANDLED BY ASSOCIATION

Columbia, Sept. 25.-The large de-
livery of old cotton yet made to the
South Carolina Cotton Growers
Association was made last week by
Josh Kirven, of Darlington, who
turned over 1900 bales old long staple
cotton to the association. Delivery
of this cotton under the terms of the
contract through the association.
Officials of the association say that
old cotton is pouring in from every
section of the state. Members of the
organization are delighted with the
advances which they are receiving,
according to letters which are being
received at headquarters. The ass
ociation is now making an initial
advance of IL cents pound or short
staple old and new cotton, and 18
cents pound on long staple, old and
new.
The first fire to occur in associat-
ion cotton was in Lee county Monday
afternoon when some cotton belong
ing to l.. D. Welch, of Elliott, was
burned enroute from the gin to the
depot. Mr.. Welch notified the asso-
citation Tuesday at noon of his loss
and Wednesday at noon the associa-
tion had check from the insurance

si2s COW PAID FOR
HERSELF IN IzS nays

u
"The boil weevil made it necessary
to change from cotton to dairyine
and live stock growing, but the eradi-
cation of the cattle tick made the
change possible" said A. L. James,
of Darlinton, South Carolina, a re-
cent convert to purebred cattle.
eve had ticks on our farm" he
said, "and at that time our IL cows
were worth about $500 for the whole
lot. Now we have "a Guernseys, in
cluding young stock, and they are
. easily worth $500 a head"
Soon after the fever ticks were
cleared out in this section of the state
Mr.. James bought good cow for
$125, and in 1875 days she had paid
for herself in addition to paying for
her keep. The price of milk is not SO
nigh now as it was Immediately fol-
lowing the taking off of the last tick,
but still the making of milk is profit
able. One factor that has had much to
do with it is the feed,which is largely
| home grown. Cottonseed is exchang-
ed for cottonseed meal. Hay is made
of oats and vetch and alfalfa.
But the best crop of all on the
James farm, not excepting cotton and
corn, in the owners opinion, is the
velvet bean. 1t is easy to grow 60
bushels of the beans in the pod to the
acre on land that will grow 80 BUSH
els of corn at the same time. When
the corn has been gathered the cows
can be pastured on the beans and
cornstalks during tn fall and winter.
Cover-crop is also used for pas
ture.
The cows on this farm are now
making up for what cotton does Mt
do. In 1920 Mr.. James was getting on
well, but the price of cotton took a
drop and only good production of
milk kept him going. The cows en-
abled him to hold his cotton for bet
ter prices without danger of a visit
from the sheriff.
Formerly it was the custom on this
farm to grow 20 acres of cotton to
the plow. Now cotton is still grown in
spite of the weevil, but the acreage
has been cut to 5 acres to the plow.
Milk is the important crop now. Be-
sides producing direct returns. the
cows, with the help of velvet beans
and reduced cotton acreage, have
cut down the fertilizer bill. In 1920
the farm used 16O tons of commercial,
(or purchased) fertilizer. This year
only 21 tons were used
Mr.. James is now a successful
dairymen and cattle breeder, but
there is one regret that will be with
him to the end of his days. He sums
it up when he says: II should have
made the change 25 years ago"

started a desOlation that ran Ms far
