returned. But, again Goar re-
marked that in this valley the
majority of the farmers prefer the
higher vaule cash crops such as
vegetables and this makes it diff
icult to obtain support of any
crop that returns less although it
may be less of gamble.
The experiment station finds
three cover crops the best suitable
to this area, although there are
others of value. Sesbania has
gained in popularity as it is quite
foolprCof, Goar said. Growing in
the summertime and the simpli-
city of seeding makes it one of
the best. The best planting dates

ghums tested tne tests ran from
11.68 to 22.41 tons of stalks per
acre; sucrose content ran from
1929 to 2O18; the yield of juice
ran from ,816 on the lowest stalk

on the highest stalk test; the pur-
ity tests ran from 7493 to 84.06.
Valley grown sugar beets usually
test above IS per cent for quality

Condiments experimentation has
been a project carried on by the
station for some time and tests
have been very satisfactory, ac-
cording to Superintendent Goar.
He believes that these types of
products are better suited to the
valley than they are to ether Sec
tons of the state. Included in
local experiments have been French
celery; corriander used for flavor
ing meats and by products fennels
used in providing flavorings for
liquor, licorice, and wines; anise
also used in flavorings; and other
seed crops usable il. the spice in

He has tounG at the Meloland
station where 40 acres are tile
drained, that there has been no
improvement in the crop growth
even though the water table has
been lowered from 3 feet to So
feet. There has been no improve
ment in the soil except in cases
where we have leached for a per-
iod of sixty days A lesser leach
ing period has still left the soil
somewhat spotted, he claimed.
But he, too, finds that rice is
good reclaimer of ccils, and COM
ing from the man who introduced
the popular Blue Rose variety in
the valley, he should know what
he is talking about. The peculiar
thing about rice growing in the
valley, Mr.. Goar said, is the fact
that to date it has been grown on
poor alkalized land. If it were

are June 20 to July 1. The only
thing about sesbania is that it
may look like it has tremen-
dous growth but there may not be
much tonnage per acre.
1t is a summer, hot-weather
crop, too, but takes a different
farming practice such as furrow-
ing it into the ground. Huban
clover is selection of the old
white bianual sweet clover. 1t was
introduced from Alabama and can
be planted from early fall until
the 18th Of March.
The station receives seed samples
from Canada ard various northern
agricultural colleges who wish to
take advantage of the southern
winter climate to obtain additional
foundation seed or additional
foundation seed stocks of spec
ial varieties.
