ROTATION
A good rotation system should
incuile a legume and a cultivate )
cro. The rotation and crops to be
UHed will depend upon local con
jditions. The purpose of growing
a legume If to gather nitrogen
from the air and store it in the
soil. Legumes ult-o help maintain
. tne supply of humus. The ciovers
I cow peas, scy beans, retch and
crimson clove' are the leadingle
guinea for this purpose. Vetch is
usually grown with ryein the East
and South. Cultivation improves
the Dhvsical an1 chemical condi
Itiorts of the soil. Furthermore by
cultivator, manure fan be worked

That crop rotation is almost as
effective as farm manure and

. MANY FOREST USES
The national forests are used
for many things besides the pro
duction of crops of timber. This
is shown by the annual report of
special uses for the 22 national
forests of Oregon and Washing
ton just compiled in the district
forester's office at Portland, Or.
According to the report, 2589
special uxe permits are in force
on these 22 national forests. These
uses are of 48 kinds, ranging from
apiaries to wharfs. There aresuch
unes as school houses, golf cours
, observatories, fur farms, ho
tel, mineral springs and ceme
terinp. Th largest number of per
mits is for summer ho. Tie sites,
of which there are 973. Livestock
pasture permits come next with
310. Of the total number of per
mits in force, 1075 are free per
mits, while 1511 pay charges at
rates varying according to the
noture of the permit. v
The Mount Hood national for
est leads in total number of all
permits with 450, and also leads
w ith 312 summer homesite per
mils. This is largely due to the
titensive development brought a
bout by the construction of the
Mount Hood Loop road.
