County Agent Notes
LESPEDEZA

Ii Is not too late yet to SOW lespe-
deza seed on oat land or on bottom
lands that have been recently plow-
ed or broken soon. At the present
price of seed there are hundreds of
acres of land in the sandy loan
section that should be put in lespe-
deza for hay or for pasturing.
AS hay and seed crop, lespe-
deza will beat cotton on lots of the
bottom lands for making money.
and as the land on the east side of
this county is adapted to growing
lespedeza we should grow it, and
not worry because cotton and alfal-
ia does not do as we'll in this section
as it does in the prairies.
Monroe county should be selling
thousands of bushels of lespedeza
seed every year. anu thousands of
cars of hay just as some of the other
counties in the state are doing.
We are buying entirely too much
and selling too little, and the inn
portant thing to do now is to be
sure we plant sufficient crops to
take care of all livestock on the
farm.
| have heard many farmers in the
dairy business say that they were
not making but little money now,
and | know that they are not, for
every time they bring in can of
cream. they take out sack of feed
and sometimes load OF hay, We
should do more farming and not 80

The soy bean will grow on any
kind of land. but probably does
some better on the lime lands, and
on all rich lands it should take the
place of the velvet bean.
Corn and soy beans planted to-
gether will produce more pork than
any other two crops. and as the
beans do not affect the yield of corn
the two should be grown together,
as by doing this fully twice as much
feed can be produced on the land.
| have mentioned three important
crops that should be planted on
the farms in the county. either for
pasture, hay or winter grazing. LII
there ever was a time when we
needed to grow all our feed it is this
year, when it looks like the south.
as a whole, is going to increase the
cotton acreage from Is to % per
cent.
When the cotton acreage is in
creased the acreage in other crops
is decreased, and that means that
these crops will cost us more money
if we have them to buy next year.

Lespedeza seed can be bought foi
about $1.75 per bushel now.
VELVET BEANS.

VELVET BEANS.
/ mention the velvet bean again
because it is the greatest soil build
er and will produce more feed on
poor land than any other crop that
can be planted, and we need such
crop in this country.
Every farmer has plenty of time
to get get seed and plant them to
produce feed for this winter to take
the place of most of the cotton seed
meal and other feeds that are bought
for hogs and cattle.
Velvet beans planted the latter
part of this month or the first of
May will produce from a thousand
to over two thousand pounds of
beans in the pod. and this is surely
much better than growing only ten
or fifteen bushels of corn on an acre
of land. besides the land is left so
much richer after having the bean
crop on it.
The farmers who have cattle, and
those who have poor land should
certainly grow all the beans that
they can plant and use.
The Early Speckle or Hundred
day bean is the best variety to plant
as it usually yields better than other
varieties.
These beans can be bought bere
for 81 so per bushel.
SOY BEANS.
Soy beans should be grown for
feed and for money crop. for there
is always a demand for planting
seed in this state and surrounding
states. Every year several car loads
OF soy beans for seed purposes are
