PAGE FOUR PAGE FOUR KOBE VARIETY IS LEADER FOR LESPEDEZA HAY Show Up Best in 18 Tests Conducted in Eastern and Piedmont Carolina The Kobe variety of lespedeza pro- , duced the most hay per acre in both I eastern and piedmont North Carolina | in 18 field by farm- , ers last year in cooperation with. E. C. ! Blair, extension agronomist at State i College. In the piedmont section of the state, n the tests were made on six different j -types of soils, all of which are adapt- j; ed to the crop. In these trials, K>- j rean produced an average yield of | 1,844 pounds of hay an acre; common, M 1,996 pounds: Tennessee 76, 2.532 pounds, and Kobe, 2.632 pounds. j ; In the Coastal Plain section, the;, tests were made on four different soil | types with the average acre yields as follows: Korean. 2,300 pounds: com- ( mon, 2,435 pounds; Tennessee 76, 3,100 c pounds: and Kobe, 3,103 pounds. ' s For the whole State the average ( yields were: Korean. 2,047 pounds an a acre; common, 2,191 pounds; Tennes „ see 76. 2,785 pounds; and Koke, 2,835 poinvl'i of hay a l ' J 1,1 " 1 ' r C In reporting the results of these „ tests, Mr. Blair s4ys the rank uf the' c four varieties varied somewhat on dif* ferent fields, due largely to soil type j and abundance of telt rainfall, hut the ' average results were in favor of the c Kobe. - j c The variety is comparatively new to | North Crolina and is not yet so pop- C( ular as the common or, the Korean. a The Kobe variety is fa native of Japan ~ and is similar to the common in ap-' pearancc except that , tire stems are taller and coarser. The leaves'and seed are both larger. I t is'an [annual plant having the same habits of growth . as the common, but juatwns*" iv 4ew ( > days earlier and the stems have a ten- dency to stand erect. I ,j Mr. Blair believes the Kobe to lie | ( one of the best varieties for hay, and j it is excellent for soil improvement. COTTON SEED IS NOT AS GOOD FOR CROPS AS IS MEAL —» — While cottonseed meal is a much better nitrogen carrier few " fertilizer than" is the cotton seed, i! will not pay to swap the seed for meal unless a lair exchange is made. At present values of plant food, 1,05.1 pounds of the meal is equal infertilizing value- to a ton of the seed, and the grower should get from 1,401) to 1,800 pounds of tin 1 meal in exchange for a ton of seed. "In making this exchange the grow er must not only allow for the value of his seed as a fertilizer hut must also take into consideration the expense in curred in hauling and handling the seed and meal," says C. U. Williams - , head of the department of agronomy at State College. "If one decides that he can not get a fair exchange for his seed, it might he wise to compost down' the amount needed for fertilizer. This should be done this fall, and the seed mixed with rich earth, manure, or woods mold. Such a plan is better than waiting until next spring and putting the seed directly under the crops." Mr. Williams has received hundreds of inquiries this fall asking tor infof- . niation about the value of -enl ami ! meal in exchange Many of the ii'-j quiries indicate that the crushers are : offering less meal than usual. Based on the plant food that the two materials contain, it will take 1.4 tons of cottonseed to equal one ton of the meal. The crop increase where 1 cotton seed is used as » source of ni- ' NOTICE!
