greatest yield secured from the gar

Fertilize to make It carry a full bur
den of vegetables from frost to frost.
Rotation of Crops.
Rotation of crops Is important. It
Is wise not to plant plants of the same
botanical order In the same positions
year In and year out. Beans and peas
should move across the garden and
back from year to year. Members of
the cabbage family should be Shifted
In their position. So also should corn
as each of the«e vegetable« exhausts
certain elements in the soli In time
and may also have disease germs.
A convenient way of securing thia
rotation Is to draw a plan which you
can reserve. When you plant It from
left to right this year, next season turn
It around and plant the same plan
from right to left. In thia way the
shift will be made with the exception
of the central rows After you have
worked this for a season or two. a
new plan can be drawn to give more
diversity of planting to the central
subjects.
Avoid C utting Com for
Silage W hen Im m ature
One of the few cases where a man
had better he too late than too early
Is In the rime of filling the silo. By all
means «void cutting silage corn too
early. Stlaee
Immature corn tarns
by using It for legume crops such as
alfalfa or tbe clovers, says P. F.
Schowengerdt, extension tolls .special
ist of the Missouri College of Agri
culture.
This Is true became the
legumes have a higher need for lime
than any other farm crops grc/wi. In
this section and because the nitrogen
fixing bacteria associated with these
crops require a sweat soil in which to
do their work.
When lime la applied and the
growth of these soil building crops
made more succeeeful tbe succeeding
crop yields are also Increased.
If,
on the other hand, the lime were ap
plied for grain crops alone the return
would be much smaller.
Wherever farmer« apply lime on
wheat land In the next fall or winter
they should, by all meant, sow clover
the next spring, for In doing so they
will take advantage of their best
chance for a profit from liming.
Many experiments In Missouri show )
that lime has Increased the yield of
clover hay enough to pay the cost of
liming under present economic con
ditions. The Increased yields of corn,
uats and wheat following the clover
have constituted a good net profit
above tbe expense of liming.
Soy Beans P refer H eavy •
Soil and Much M oisture
Soy beans prefer the heavier, dark
soils and w ill stand a great deal of
moisture, but If this eoll remains wet
during the season It should be drained.
Tbe soy beans should be properly in
oculated. which Is beet done by mixing
three or four quarts of soil secured
from a well-inoculated field with each
bushel of the seed. Prepare the soil
as for corn and sow any time after
com planting, using an early variety.
It Is believed that the early plantings
do better, however, and wa would ad
vise that ti.ls field be planted as soon
as the toll can be gotten ready. I f the

has not been fertilised recently It
