COVER CROP USE!) DEPENDS ON NEED The kind of cover crop to pla-ir this fall depends on the use to be I made of the crop, the fertility « f s-oil, and how early the land will ; b*e ready for sowing. “If one needs hay, the bes‘ i cover crop to plant this fall would ' be a mixture of small grains with vetch or Austrian Winter peas,” says E. C. Blair, extension ag ronomist at State College. “One may use a mixture composed of two bushels of oats, one bushel of barley, one peck of wheat and 15 pounds of vetch. This has been found very satisfactory by many successful farmers. How 11 ver, a substitute mixture is one bushel of oats, one bushel of bar | ley and 20 pounds of vetch. A third mixture is one bushel of I oats, and one bushel of wheat land 20 pounds of vetch. These amounts are for one acre of land." In any of the above three mix jtures-, 20 pounds of Austrian win ter peas may be used instead o1 20 pounds of hairy vetch seed The mixtures should be plantec | between September 15 and Octobei ; 15. If the oats should be winter killed, there will be enough of the other grains to make a full hay crop. Neither rye nor crimson clover is recommended by Mr. , Blair for hay. For grazing, lu* finds that noth ' ing is better than a mixture of one bushel of rye and barley each planted on good land about Sen tembre 15. Early sowing is im portant, he says. For soil improvement wintei legumes planted alone are be \ Crimson clover planted in latt August or early September at the rate of 25 pounds of seed pn acre is fine. Vetch should be planted in September and Octo ber at the rate of 25 pounds ol •t;l an acre and Austrian Win ter peas may be planted at th same period using 30 pounds of seed. On poor land, Aibruzzi rye planted at the rate of one am one-half bushels per acre makes ar. excellent soil improving crop, says Mr. Blair. ROTATION BUILDS PROFITS ON COUNTY FARM When the commissioners of Alexander county placed the county home farm under the sup ervision of the farm demonstra tion agent seven years ago it was conceded to be the poorest piece of land in the county. Now it is a profitable farm. A. A. Miller was county farm agent when the responsibility was placed on that office. The first thing he did was to call in the State College extension agronomist and have him devise a system of crop rotations that could be followed through a per iod of years and which would '.Id to the fertility of the land. The agronomist first made a survey of the situation; next, he advised consolidating some of the small patches into larger fields. One or two small woods areas were clear ed away and three good fie'ds were finally obtained. •On these, a three-year crop ro tation was planned. Corn and soy beans the first year, followed by wheat the second season and les pedeza and soybeans the third were decided upon. Red clover was tried for three years but was discarded as being inferior to les pedeza. Since 1923 there have HOT OR cold, wet or dry. The Big Banner leads them all. Skinner & Patterson. Smithfield.
