lespedeza doubles corn
YIELD FOR GOLDS
TON FARMER
“I had two different ‘Patches’ in
corn folowins: Lespedeza this year”
stated Mr. W. H. Tyler, prominent
Goldston farmer.” On one two acre
field that yielded twelve bu per
acre that last time it was in corn,
I made a yield of 25 bu per acre
following lespedeza. This exactly
doubles the wield of corn without
l espedeza, and I would have made
at least a third more corn had
it been seasonable.
On another two acre field on my
farm, I cut a heavy crop ot Les
pedeza hay last fall. I turned the
stubble and planted in co v n tais
spring. I made exactly -10 bu pei
acre on this field, whereas the
last time I had it in corn, I made
30 bu per acre. There is evidently
considerable fertilizing value in toe
lespedeza roots and stubble.

BRICKHAVEN FARMER MAKES
GOOD COTTON
Mr. Henry A. Harrington has
picked the cotton through on two
acres of the five acre cotton pro
ject that he conducted as a demon
stration this year. The yie d per
acre was 60 pounds lint cotton. We
feel that the remaining three acres ]
wil make almost if not as much
cotton as the two that has been
picked over. This cotton was dusted, j
The project is conducted by Mr. j
Henry A. Harrington in coopera
tion with the Chilean Nitrate of
Soda Educational Bureau and the
County Agent. . ■
On a five acre corn project, Air. ,
Harrington made a total of 275 j
measured bushels of corn, an aver
age of 55 bu per acre. Mr. Harring-
ton turned a cron of soy bean vines
on this five acre during the past
winter and followed it in corn. Mr.
Harringtons record shows tnat this
corn was produced at the low cost
of 38 cents per bushel. I

BREED FOR SPRING IN EARLY
NOVEMBER AND LATE
OCTOBER
Sows should be bred before Nov.
15 for early spring pigs, as they
will usually' be ready for breeding
a few day after the fall pigs are
i weaned. If necessary, wean the
fall pigs early and give them some
extra milk, along with a good con
: centrate ration.
i Early in March is the best far
rowing time as the weather is usual
ly warm enough to prevent chill
ing or freezing of the young pigs
or not hot enough to cause the
sow trouble at farrowing or stunt
| the young pigs. There is as a rule,
a heavy death loss in summer and
, winter nigs and those that live do
not make the growth that tall or
spring pigs - would.
1 March pigs can be made ready
for the market in September when
hogs are high, by breeding in early
; November and early May it is pos
i sible to have each crop of pigs
ready for the market when hogs
are highest and to dispose ot each
pig crop by the time another
comes on.
in the tin e of its greatest peril,
gave an eloquent talk in which he
picturized the pre-scenes of war,
war itself, and then to be followed
by peace for which we should be and
are thankful and now rejoicing.
Songs were sang which were char
acteristic of the time of departing
soldiers and of the time when pure
blood was shed in the name of
peace and American democracy and
the principles for which it repre
sents.
