July 22.?Many' farmers in South Carolina are uncer-1 tain as :o whether or not it is neces-, 1S ec01 sary to inoculate soil in this State fori bod\ \ / the successful cultivation of cowpeas.! our * ! Inquiries on t:e subject are coming to j Clemson college. In the opinion of the ! Peop; college authorities, South Carolina farmers should not spend money for! commercial cultures for cowpeas, since the crop does not need it in this State ^TTl at present. ^lll In replying to a letter from a bank er in the lower part of the State, W. W. Long, director of extension at Clemson college and State agent of Jippjp demonstration, writes: J|||l||| "Upon receip: of your letter, I had all the literature on t'-e subject in- IMpli vestigated, but in order to make assurance doubly sure and in order to settle this question and to get the basis for an opinion that may be taken |||||| as authorirative, I telegraphed some |||| of the leading authorities in the South- jf^lglla ern States asking for an expression. jjj| AH the replies support t':e conclusion sSfiSi that in the South generally cowpea L?? inoculation is unnecessary because not profitable." expensixe Mr. Long's letter then points out they hav< that in six publications on cowpeas, from Missouri, Texas, Delaware, Ken- THI> tucky and the United States department of agriculture, no statement is ^ee That ? . . .
