Tliree-Year Rotation M' Brings Good Results A three-year rotation of corn, wheat, and lespedeza is superior in many ways to a two-year rotation of wheat, crimson clover, and corn, according to E. C. Blair, extension agronomist at State College. In the first place, the land is in a row crop for only about six months out of every three years. The rest of the time it is in wheat or lespe deza, which are broadcast crops that discourage erosion, or the land is plowed up rough and left over win- ! ter for the lespedeza to decay. Dur ing this time there is likely to be little washing, Blair explained. Then, too, the same amount of labor can cultivate more land under the three-year rotation. It is usually necessary to plow only once in three years at the time lespedeza is turned under for corn. Discing and har- wm generally put the corn- stalk field in shape for. wheat. Blair pointed out that there is no i rush of work m this rotation, as the lespedeza may be turned under at any suitable time during the winter. Preparing the land for wheat is a re latively rapid process, and the les pedeza is sown on the wheat in Feb ruary or March when there is little else to do. On the other hand, it is often a serious problem to get crimson clover turned under and corn planted in a two-year rotation. Also breaking wheat stubble land during hot weath er in order to sow crimson clover sometimes presents difficulties, Blair added. Daring Fleet of Engineering The great International Bridge at Niagara Falls was a daring piece of engineering. The span was 821 feet, and the height of the towers 80 feet. It was the first suspension bridge designed to carry railroad traffic. .And it was. only because lo- i comotives were being built so much heavier that It had to be replaced by a steel arch in 1898.

Agricultural and Industrial Agent Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Co. - Cash-crop- tanners m Tidewater Virginia and Coastal Plain and Tide water sections of the Carolinaa have made remarkable progress during recent years in breeding and feeding hogs for shipment to packing-house markets. Frequent mention has been, made of the'Shay Method", in North Carolina, and the "Sharkey Hawkins Method'', South' Carolina, under which hogs are quickly made readjrmarke the use of feeding methods advocated by Swine Divisions of Agnci Colleges in Virginia and the Unas have been-' larcrelv resoot . ... . w . . f . ior tne fact tnat noes nave Difuun.viri a monev-cron on numerous linr.'.i -. throughout this section. I In -view of the interest thai ' rff been developed in hogs and coLtf"1' feel that certain information deve loped at Auburn, Alabama, from . work extending over a 15 year period showing the hogging off of corn was substantially more- profitable than harvesting and marketing corn, in all but three years of the fifteen years, should be a' matter of general v" interest to farmers. Lack of space prevents use in this article of the table of figures, making comparisons between hogging off of y corn versus harvesting corn in Ala- " bama. An average of the figures for 4 the 15 years shows a profit of 4.06 per acre, or 28 cents per bushel, in -favor of hogging off corn compared with harvesting and marketing cortf-' , An average price of $1.32 per bushel 1 for corn in the field would have been realized during the 15 year period .y if the corn crop had been marketed iS through hogs.
