STOCK BUSING IS THE EAST.
The Progressive Farmer says :
"In our last issue Harry Farmer
talked of the advantages offered by
our eastern swamps and savannahs
for beef raising. Araoher we
think, furnished us a letter on the
game subjeot some months ago.
We should like tohear from others.'
A most useful subjeot for discus
sion, particularly at this time of
high values for beef cattle.
We have always heard our eastern
friends boast of the excellence of
their beef, fattened upon the reed
marshes which are so abundant
throughout that seotion, and recall
our own experience a few years ago
at Elizabeth City. The steaks and
roast furnished by the excellent
hotel at which we stopped were eo
really good, juioy and tender, of
suoh delicate flavor, we ventured to
enquire of the kindly Boniface
whence he got the meat, and he re
plied it was all home-raised, fattened
in the marshes near by.
Whatever the outoome of the pres
ent agitation as to the rapid advance
in the price of meats, the Post feels
justified in saying that for some
time years at least cattle raising
will be one of the profitable indus
tries of our country, and no better
time possible could oome to our east
ern friends for availing of their rich
marshes and thus oonvert their
waste native products into profitable
as well as juicy beef and mutton.
Raleigh Post.
The wise farmer is not hasty, at
the approaoh of spring and the ap
pearanoe of young green blades in
the pasture in taking his stook off
dry feed and allow them to feed on
the young shoots. If this praotice,
however, is resorted to, there is
likely to be but one ultimate result,
and thaVis that when the timt comes
when the stock will need green for
age, there will be none to be had, as
was the case last year. The herd
will 1 ram pie down the soft ground
and in oase of an early dry spell, the
surface of the soil will be baked hard
as stone, in which no grass can grow.

HOW TO FEED EHEEDDED CORK TOZZZIL
Experiments at the Maryland sta
tion show that :
t. A mixed feed, made by wptffn?
shredded corn fodder and grain to
gether, is the best way to feed corn
fodder.
2. The mixed feed was more diges
tible and produced more flesh and
milk than the same food fed bapar
ately and dry.
3. There was less fodder wasted
by feeding it as a mixed feed than
by feeding fodder and grain separ
ately and dry.
4. The digestibility of shredded
fodder was increased by feeding it
Wet the increase being suffioienfc to
warrant wetting.
5. The amount of water consumed
bv animals is about the same with
the different methods of feeding.
EXPERIMENT WITH RAPE.
After seeing so muoh writtpn in
your valuable paper about Essex
rape, I concluded to send for a 10
cent paokage and try it in this lati
tude. I sowed some of it in drills
about two and one half feet apart
about May 14 in rich, loose soil By
the last of Jure it spread ont and
was about to smother out some cab
bage that was next to it, so I b?gan
cutting off the stems and leave on
that side and fed it to my pigs. They
ate it as eagerly as they would oor&
and it seems to do them good. From
the way it grows forme and the way
the pig? eat it I believe it is one of
the cheapest feeds we can raise. I
have sent for another packg anl
intend to drill it between the oorn
rows and feed it to my hogs this fall
when I begin to fatten them. I be
lieve it will help them along while
feeding them oorn.
I will write more about my experi
ence after I have tried it more thor
oughly. T. B. Chaney, Atkinson

THE COW PEA: IT8 PLACE AHD VALUE
ON THE FABlf.
Prof. Andrew M Soule, of theTJni
versity of Tennessee, an occassional
correspondent of The Progressive
Farmer, has in a reoent i?sue of the
Breeder's Gazette a very instructive
artiole upon the above named sub
ject. Says Prof. Soule:
In traveling across the country in
a railroad train or in driving along
the country roads, one is impressed
with the fact that muoh of the tilled
land is unworthy of cultivation if
the crops produced on it may be taken
as a guide. But on second thought
this does not seem possible, for on
oontiguous'farms where the soii, the
lay of the land and external condi
tion are practically the. same, one
finds excellent crops by the side of
every inferior one. This leads to
the belief that on many farms the
land has been worn out by a lack of
proper rotation of crops and by the
fallaoj of continuous oorn and wheat
culture, until it has become sick, as
it were, and exhausted of available
plant food.
On a closer inspection of these
worn-out soils one is impressed with
their poor meohanioal condition.
They are devoid of what is known as
good texture, they lack friability
and fiber, they are hard and oompaot,
and the particles of which they are
composed are bo closely run together
that it is dlffioult for water and air
to sink into them or move freely
through them, or for the roots of
plants to penetrate deep enough to
esoape the effects of a severe drought.
Examining virgin soils of similar
origin that may be found at more or
less remote distanoes from these
fields, they are found to possess all
the characteristics in whioh the cul
tivated soils of long standing are de
ficient. As is well known, all virgin
soils oontain more or less humus or
vegetable matter, whether they are
of prairie or woodland origin. This
is due to the accumulation through
many years of the decaying grass on
one hand and of the leaves and stems
of trees on the other. It if also
known that these virgin soils -when
kept in corn and wheat for a number
of years rapidly acquire the objeo
tionable oonditions of the cultivated
lands mentioned. Even on the rich
est of the prairie soils onoesoabund
antly supplied with humus, a marked
deorease in productive capacity ha
teen noted in reoent years. Thi?
leads to the belief that the exhaus
tion of the humus has been one of
the ohief reasons of their rapid decad
ence, and in faot, further therefore,
and especially so markedly deficient
in humus as those of the South, the
first step towards proof of its rela
tion to soil fertility is not needed.
With the problem of an exhausted
soil before us, their restoration must
be the incorporation of this element
in some cheap and practical way.
With this objeot in view, the Agricul
tural Department of tMs Station is
conducting a series of experiment in
plowing under green crops for the
purpose of studying their effect on
the mechanioal condition of the soil.
The results obtained are very grati
fying indeed and indioate that this
method of treatment will quickly
give the soils that oharaoter of tilth
desirable. The method of plowing
under green crops for this purpose
oommends itself for the reason :
First. That it is the only effective
me ns that can be employed unless
it would by the use of barn yard ma
nure. This is impracticable because
of the immensa quantity it would
require and the difficulty of obtain
ing the same. Seoond. Southern
farmers can better afford to plow
under green crops than those in
many other States, because it is com
paratively easy for them to secure
two crops a year on the same land,
one to plow under and one for feed.
Third. By the use of certain crops
the nitrogen supply of the soil can
be materially increased. Fourth
The effect of a green crop will be ap
parent from two to four years, and
hence the operation does not need to
be repeated annually.
It has been urged by some that
they cannot afford to plow under
green crops as they need them for
feed, but is it not both a wise polioy
and eoonomy to plow under a orop
that will add twenty fold to the
yield, as compared with cultivating
this area after the old fashion when
it is a foregone conclusion that the
yield will be small? A good many
people have the idea that they can
use artificial fertilizers and seonre
the desired ends, but this impression
is all a mistake. Artificial fertilizers
are very useful in their places, but
they have praotically no effeot on
the meohanioal oondition of the soil
and merely serve to supply food and
stimulate the plant for the time be
ing. Humus, on the other hand,
affects the structure of the soil,
ohanging the relation of the par tides
one to another, and thus influencing
its aotion toward heat, water and
air. It also aids in the disintegra
tion of the soil partioles and provides
an open, porous seed bed so that the
roots of plants can sink deeply into
it and forage over wider areas of the
subsoil, while in its decay it forms
certain chemioal combinations that
aoton the latent forms of food looked
up in the soil, rendering them avail
able as plant food.
Of all the crops adapted for green
manuring, none are superior to the
legumes for the reason that they
have the power by means of the
nodules on their roots of absorbing
large amounts of atmospheric nitro
gen and storing it in the leaves and
stems of the plants. The value of
the work done in this respeot by
these plants is hard to gauge from
the faot that organic nitrogen in its
cheapest form oosts the farmer from
12 to 15 cents a pound, and as it is
one of the elements most readily ex
hausted in the soil and required
freely by all farm crops, it would be
difficult or altogether impossible for
the farmer to supply this need by
the use of artificial forms of nitrogen.
Realizing the vital importance of
the restoration of the soil texture a
great deal of attention is being given
to the cultivation of various legumes
adapted to Southern oonditions.
More than twenty-five of them were
grown at the Experiment Station the
past year, but of these only a few
offer any promise. Among the more
promising may be mentioned the
cow pea, velvet bean, soja bean,
Canada field pea and winter vetoh.
Among these to date the cow pea
stands without a peer. Thus far it
has proved itself to be the best
leguminous crop adapted to the
needs of the Southern farmer. This
is because of the great variety of
crops -with which it may be culti
vated, and because of the faot that
it can be so readily utilized on the
farm.
The cow pea is a gross feeder and
in order to seonre the best results
with it the sail should be well up
plied with phosphates and potash. It
should be deeply broken and sub
soiled to a depth of fourteen inches
on heavy lands. This can be cheaply
and effectively accomplished by
means of the subsoiler attachment
on some forms of disk plows. Thor
ough cultivation of the land is half
the battle in producing any crop and
the cow pea is no exception to the rule.
Where it is desired to secure two
orops of cow peas a year, the pea
should be sown on carefully prepared
land as soon as all danger of frost is
past. The first crop resulting may
then be out for hay when the leaves
and pods are beginning to show a
yellowish tinge. In a reasonable
season and on a good soil a seoond
crop will thn be produced and this
is the crop that should be saved for
seed, for our results here are rather
remarkable in showing a muoh
heavier fruiting with the seoond
orop than the first. It is thought
that this method will prove entirely
feasible in this State, and it is a sub
jeot oertainly vrorthy of the most
oareful consideration, for the objeots
of utilizing the cow pea in this way
are almost unlimited, and it is very
remarkable to get two crops in one
year.from a plant of suoh high feed
ing and productive capacity. It
must be borne in mind that the oow
pea will not make two orops on very
poor land ; it will net always make a
good orop the est Tear it is grown'
on a piece of land. This is because
the bacteria whioh live in the nodules
on its roots are not always present in
the soil and it may take them one or
two years to increase sufficiently to
assimilate enough atmospheric nitro
gen to insure a large and thrifty
growth. It is not to be infer red that
two crops of cow peas can only be
secured on very rich land, but as an
idea seems to prevail that oow peas
will grow on any kind of land and
with any kind of care, it was thought
well to make this statement for fear
of disappointing some who ao not
fully appreciate the importance of
plant food and proper cultivation as
related to crop production. It is
certainly feasible to out one orop of
peas tor hay and secure an after
math from a foot to fifteen inohes in
height to plow under. This will give
the soil anywhere from 25 to 50

.i '
pounds of nitrogen per aore and if
wheat or some other cereal crop f ol
lows, the results will generally bear
out the wisdom of plowing under the
aftermath. If it is desired to cut
the second orop fox grain, the stubble
and waste remaining should then be
plowed under to prevent the loss cf
nitrogen through leaohing, and it
may then be seeded to oorn the fol
lowing spring. Peas can easily be
used as a soil renovator after wheat.
If the wheat land is broken imme
diately after harvest and well seeded
with peas, they will make a growth
of as muoh as two feet by the first of
September, when they should be im
mediately turned under and the
ground rolled and harrowed to hold
the moisture and the land cultivated
at least once a week until the time
of seeding. If there is any way to
insure a orop of wheat better than
this, we do not know it. Cow peas
may also be used as a catoh crop
after almost any crop on the farm,
or they may be sown in by -places
and furnish useful food supplies for
green feeding.
Of all the orops fed to our cows
singly as a forage crop, none exoels
the oow pea, nor is there any eaten
more readily or with greater financial
results. Experiments made at this
Station indioate that its feeding
value is not thoroughly appreciated,
and that where oow pea hay can be
abundantly produoed it can probably
be successfully substituted for cot
ton seed meal in a dairy or beef
ration, and this of oourse means
muoh to the farmer of limited capi
tal. Cow peas and sorghum sown
broadcast for green feeding is the
finest soiling crop that the Station
has yet discovered, and we can
recommend it without qualification
to the dairymen of the State. These
orpps can either be drilled' or sown
broadcast in succession, so as to last
when combined with oorn almost the
entire season. The making of oow
pea vine hay has been looked upon
as a very delicate operation, but the
difficulty can be overcome by the use
of a small amount of straw mixed in
with the vines when cooking them
up. It takes some time and trouble
to mako pea vine hay, but this can
be accomplished by judicious man
agemeat and when dono is wel.
