Tho dollar mark is the sign of a successful farmer. As you go along the highways look for the signs in the green holds spread out over tho hills and valleys. And what ls tho dollar mark of success? lt ls repre sented by tho sign $ formed itt tho Holds by tho two stalks of oats rep resenting tho two perpendicular lines and HAIRY VETOH twining about tho oats. How many will have "dollar marks" on their farms tho coming yoar? In tho summor time tho dollar mark of tho fields ls represented by tho running velvet benn, which twines about tho com In summor Just ns tho vetch twines about the oats or rye in winter. "Muscio Shoals" looms up in print nearly every day. As a part of the great plans for? its operation tho chief plan of interest to tho farmer la the milking of fertilizer, chiclly hy tho' oleclrlcal process of obtain ing nitrogen from the AIR. Every farmer can havo "a little ?Muscle Shoals" on his farm. The velvet bean, cowpea and soy bean will do just what is planned for Mus cle Shoals-lt will talco the nitrogen out of tho air for uso of tho plants and the onrlchmont of his soil. In the year 1888 Hollriegol and Wll far'h, of Germany, actually discov ered and demonstrated that certain bacteria living on tho roots of leg umes (beans, peas, clovers and tho | vetcres) use free nitrogen from tho soil air and givo lt to tho host plants on which they live. This was a re markable disc >very which should be used by every farmer to tho tulles*, extent, especially in building up run down land in this year of specula tion in regard to boll weevil damage A fertile soil means a better pock etbook for tho farmer. Tho most essential elements in a fertile soil are humus and nitrogen. lt is a good year to star', some "Muscle Shoals factories" on tho poor or medium lands. They Grow Itt Dresden Smith, Deputy Clerk of Court, says that when lt comes to growing crimson clover ho is ahead of Mayor Brown, and we'll have to hand lt to him. Ho is some clove* grower-whether or not his neats all other fields in the county. Right along with him ranks W. H. Glnzonor, of Koowee School District, who has a Ano field of crimson clover this sonsou. But when it comes to vetch and bur clover all hats havo to be pulled to <3. W. Bauknlght, of Walhalla, for ho is the pioneer in this line. All of his land is covered with one or the other of these two nitrogen gathering crqps. Ocon?o is developing good alfalfa mon right along. Ono of tho most outstanding successes of tho yoar is tho flold of Larry Marott's at Fair Play, whoso Hold was sown last fall. John Brandt's field, near Walhalla, which did not look so woll lust year, Is doing much better this season. Bottled inoculation did not fill tho bill last year. R. L. Brewer, of Friendship, start ed off with late planting, too much manure and grass seod in his alfalfa last year, but it has taken on now lifo this yoar and is making up for lost time. Try Somo Sudan Grass. The man who would like to "pull fodder," but has running volvot beans to plant in his com should get his "fodder" elsewhere. The best feed of this class of roughage ls Sudan grass. Its quality is about tho same as Johnson grass or tim othy. It is easy to cut, handle and cure, and will make a yield of from one to eight tons of cured hay por acre. About 20 to 30 pounds of seed per acre will be needed for broad casting, or about 8 or 10 pounds for drilling in rows 20 to 30 Inches apart. If sown early, and on land that would make extra good corn, two or three cuttings may bo ob tained. Geo. H. Briggs, County Agent. Rino Ridgo Ministers1 Conference.
