PAGE TWO THE FRANKLIN FIlESS, rnAiniLiU, II. C Thursday, r::v ;::.; :::: Ne7 Winter Pea Is Good Soil Bulkier The Austrian Winter pea, introduced into North Carolina in the last two or three years, is the equal of any tier winter legume' as a soil builder. This is the indication we must ac cept from a series of demonstrations conducted on the farm of H. W. Bill iard of Orrum, Robeson county' says Boos C. Blair,, extension agronomist at State College. "In October 1929,1 Ur'. Bullard planted plots of Austrian TTinter peas, hairy vetch, crimson clover, and barley side by side on a aatform piece of soil. In April, 1930, all of these crops had made good growth and were turned under in pre paring the land for corn. The barley, feeing. a non-leguminous . plant, was ased as a check to learri of the ef fect of the Wgumes." The results were very interesting, says Mr. Blair. The corn grown on tie different plots was recently harv ested and weighed showing the yield after barley to be 30 bushels an acre. The yield following the hairy vetch was 39 bushels an acre; the yield fol fewing the -crimson clover was 42 bushels and that after the Austrian Winter peas was 42 bushels an acre. In other words, the plowing under of hairy vetch increased the yield of corn by nine bushels, while plowing under the crimson ' clover ; and the Austrian peas increased it by 12 bush els each. From the results of these demon strations, farmers may rely as con fidently on the Austrian peas 'as they have on the older, well known winter legumes which have been popular for so many years, Mr. Blair says. The yields on none of the plots were as high as they might have been due to the extremely dry season in that territory this summer. , , o " Mrs. J. B.
