Improving Sod Land for Winter

You are fortunate to possess a

nation which you can undertake to
establish for pasture purposes In
your section of the state. The
length Of the grazing season may be
increased to some extent on damp
soils by adding three pounds Of Red
Top and two pounds of White clover
to a mixture of ten pounds OF
lespedeza and three pounds of car
pet grass. We suggest that you
SOW the two varieties named this
fall. Any time from now on until
the fifteenth of November should
answer very well in your section
Of the state. White clover, as you
know, is a seasonal plant. It's value
for grazing is chiefly in the early
spring. 1t would be of considerable
advantage in a pasture of the kind
you describe, because it would be
available for grazing before les
pedeza is available. Lespedeza would
also furnish later fall and earlier
spring grazing than you would ba
able to obtain from carpet grass.
The land should be free from
standing water, though the combi

Getting a Start Along Diversified
Lines
II. M. F., OeIethorpe, Ga,
writes; l have rented tract of
100 acres Of land ten miles from
Macon. The land is heavy sand
land with kaolin cropping out at
intervals; it Is very billy and
some little bottom land. | wish
advise as to how to manage this
land and what to grow on it
for best results.
1t is difficult to give you the in
formation you desire without know
ing more of the purpose you have
in mind. Your farm could be
handled along one of several lines.
The growing and shipping of truck
could be emphasized. You might
farm, or emphasize fruit growing,
if you so desire. The safest propo-
Versify production. There are some
crops which each year bring a good
price. Of course crops vary in their
yield according to seasonal condl-
tons. IF the bottom land is well
drained, it should be devoted to corn.
If too wet for satisfactory cultiva-
pet grass, Lespedeza and Red Top
will make a good mixture to SOW on
moist bottoms.
There should be no trouble about
disposing of the milk or butter from
few COWS to good advantage, as
Macon is not well supplied with these
products at this time, and an article
of quality should sell readily as a
good price. One, of course, can start
in the dairy business on a very
modest basis and develop and expand
as time and opportunity permit. The
land in question will grow very fine
crops for silage, thereby insuring
your having q very desirable substi-
tute for grass at a season of the
year when grazing is short.
One should be able to grow some
truck on a farm of this kind to good
advantage. Cabbage, English peas.
beans, tomatoes and turnip greens
can be produced and sold to adj
vantage if proper forethought rela-
tive to the production, cultivation,
and marketing of these crops are eX-
| ercised. A small, home orchard
would prove an asset. Personally, ]
would be disposed to plant a small
| acreage to cotton each year, not
over, in any event, ten acres to the
| plow, and probably five would be
| better. One who is not prepared to
| fight the WeeVil and does not under
stand his life-history is not likely to
| raise very much cotton, but where
calcium arsenate is intelligently
used, a profitable crop of lint can
| be harvested. You can no doubt
grow muskmelons and watermelons
to some advantage. A few acres OF
the latter crop could do doubt be
cultivated to advantage. You should
be able to sell them through some
of the cooperative marketing organ
izations now established in your com
munty. We understand that there
are some canning organizations be
ing operated in the vicinity of Ma
! con. Probably you could contract
to grow certain kinds of crops fol
one of these concerns. 1t is desira
bic that you select and plant only
the best standard varieties of the
crops planted and that you fertiliZC
your land in a Skillful manner. You
of course, must expect to establish
| and maintain a rotation of crops
if you are to keep your land in gooC

BUILDING UP THE SOIL IN

to plant such crops in the or

it do to SOW crimson clover this

Crimson clover will undoubtedly
be a good crop for you to plant in
your pecan orchard for the purpose
of increasing the nitrogen supply of

that you expect OF turn under this
crop. Immediate sowing should be
undertaken. Sow about 20 pounds

is desirable that the land be lined

ly ground, raw rock. The lime should
be put on before the legume is plant
ed, and it is important to see that
the seed do not come in contact with
any of the commercial fertilizer,
which may be applied to the land
later on.
You may, Of course, use rye, oats.
and vetch alone or in combination
for a winter cover crop for a pecan
orchard The best summer crops
are undoubtedly the cowpea and the
velvet bean. 1T is important to re-
member that most cover crops
grown, however, are watery in ma
ture and therefore some commercial
fertilizer should be used along with
them.
For young trees, we recommend an
application Of from one to five
pounds Of a formula that contains
about 4 per cent nitrogen, 8 per cent
acid, and per cent pot
ash. IT makes very little difference
what carriers of these elements are
used to prepare the formula. The
thing is to see that 1T con-
tains the elements indicated.

FARM EDUCATION
BY DIR. ANDREW M. SOULE

use lime to obtain a. very good stand
of crimson clover. In sections where
peanuts are extensively grown, our
disposition would be to put the lime
on previous to the planting of TINS
crop. Finely ground, raw rock IS
the cheapest form of lime you can
use. 1t does not act SO quickly IN
the soil; therefore, you should use
twice as much of it as you would or
freshly slaked lime.
For combination crop of the char
acter you have in mind, we suggest
an application of 200 pounds of acid
phosphate, 100 pounds of kainit, and
100 pounds of cottonseed meal.
1t will not be good practice OF
course to continue to grow peanuts
on the same land for any consider
able period of time. So we suggest
that you make arrangements at an
early date to rotate your crops.
The bean to which you refer has
only done fairly we'll at the college.
We can not therefore commend 1t as
the equal of other beans which we
have tested. We do not consider 1t
so valuable as some other crops
which may be made to occupy the
land during the winter season.

J. E., StillmOre, Ga, writes
Please advise me about sowing
crimson clover and rye for graz
ing purposes. l intende to put it
on ground that has been planted
in Spanish peanuts. Should | use
lime? Will slaked lime do? what
fertilizer shall l use? Is the
Lindsey Johnson winter bean a
sure crop, and can they be grown
on peanut land?
1t is considered very good prac-
tice to SOW crimson clover and rye
together. This may be done for one
of several reasons:
/. For the improvement Of the soil.
2. For grazing.
3. For hay production.
Crimson clover combines quite well
with rye under the soil and climatic
conditions pertaining in Georgia. 1t
is best not to sow the rye too thtckly
50 as to give the crimson clover a
better chance to grow and develop.
1t is valuable in making what is call

These two crops tend to mature at
about the same time. Therefore they
can be grazed or cut for hay with
advantage. In our experience in seed
ing crimson clover and rye together
we have proceeded as follows: We

rye to fifteen pounds Of crimson

holds that a mother should always
lug her baby about with her Wher-
ever she goes. Don't you think that
a young mother needs a night out
without her child once a week, and
that her husband should be willing
to mind the baby while she takes
a night off? l.. M.
Answer; I certainly do, Mrs. =.
NJ, and L think there should be an
Amalgamated Order Of Wives that
would demand at least the privileges
Of a nursery maids Thursday eve
ming off, and who would go on strike
and a lockout until they got it.
Six days a week it is but fair that
the mother should toll and take care
of the children and relieve her hus-
band of the burden of them as much
as possible, for that is her end Of
the domestic partnership. But on the
seventh day she should have some
respite from her labors. Further
more, it is up to her husband to re-
member that he Is just as much a
father as she is a mother, and that
his turn comes to ride herd on the
kids.
The plan of givinga mother an
evening off every week presents
many admirable features. For one
thing it gives the father a chance
to get acquainted with his children
as he never would in any other way.
There is a lot in a bowling infant
besides the pain in its little tummy,
and the man who has walked the
collie while mother was off at her
club or play finds out much valuable
psychological information about his
offspring that later stands him in
good stead when he has to deal with
an obstreperous hobbledehoy boy or
flapper.
Taking care of the children on
mothers night off also would give a
man a lot of sympathy for his wife,
and forever keep him from saying
to her, as so many men do, 81 wish
[ could take things easy as you do,
and had nothing to do but just to
stay at home with the children" He
would know that no other labor on
earth is so continuous, so monoto-
GUS and so nerve-racl1ing as baby
tending.
Above all, for a woman to have
right off every week would break
the strain under which she lives and
prevent thousands of cases of nerv-
Gus prostration. It would give her
something to look forward to, some
thing to enjoy remembering. 1t
would freshen and rest her in every
way and make her a better mother
and wife because much of womans
unreason and irritability is nothing
but sheer nerves.
