 A. If you are going to mix and SOW together the spike tooth harrow would be ample covering for tho clover and would answer for the rye would roll or drag the land after sowing if possible, as this always makes for a better stand.
 c. I want to plant out perennials this fall and I have a good deal of shade to contend with. What plants will better stand partial shade i? Mrs. E.. Selma.
 A. The following will stand not only full sun but partial shade :. Phlox. violets. forget-me-n lobelia. hardy lilies. iris, foxgloves, larkspur, columbine. Jacobs ladder and spira,a There are. of course, many more. Any list you might submit I could tell you the best location for.
 o. I want some red pansies in a color scheme. What varieties would you recommend? Mrs. B.
 A. The meteor is fine scarlet red and the large Towering Victoria, beautiful claret red.
 o. I have a fine field of soy bears of the otootan variety that I want to SOW in crimson clover or hairy vetch as fertilizer or winter and spring cover crop. l may cut some hay. Which do you think would be the best? Mrs. J., Lineville.
 A. Much would depend on the stage of growth of the soy beans. Either seed ought to be covered. especially the clover, by running harrow or light cultivator through the middles after sowing the seed Moderate shade for while would not hurt crimson clover and might help it if planted now, but this variety of soy bean holds it's foliage so late that crimson clover may be injured by the shade. Vetch, on the other hand, would not come up until after the soy beans were gone. For hay, the vetch is much superior, but for turn ing under for fertilizer, the clover is probably better suited. As cover crop both plants are well suited.
