COVER CROPS. - / To Club Children and Farmers of ^ Lexington bounty: j' * Have you- ever noticed the little t this winter, and plow it all under this I 5 i3prinpr. (it is estimated that your |' ] ground will be about' a hundred if' pounds..per acre richer in nitrogen!' than if you had no cpver crop of any .j kind on it. That inasmuch nitrogen -as you wo.t^M-get in 500 lbs. of nitrate of soda," so every boy and man in < Lexington county should begin now to 1 prepare his land for corn or cotton ior i the 1923 club work. '< ' J. W. SHEAtY, f County Agent. ) Ballentine, S. C. . j |l a i schoo: i LmMW if ->*?* f J J I ^ jljl / ? ? ' * ' " knots or nodules on me roois 01 tuw- ? peas, velvet beans, peanuts, alfalfa and other plants known as legumes? < These little knots are the home of i little organtisms called bacteria. They live in these knots as you do in a i house, and take nitrogen from the air and gixp it to the plant in which they ( live. This nitrogen is the costly ma-' 4 terial contained in commercial ferti- | kzer. In the air over, which each j acre o{ ground there is aout thirty- ' five thousand tons of nitrogen. So if j * . you will plant vetch and clovers,. ( which is a legumer. on the plat orj?j piece of ground that you are going to,"] grow your acre of . corn or cotton on i next year,. these littl^ acteria will j gather nitrogen from the air and * g> 1 make your ground richer and enable ., you to raise'more corn. It is best to ^ plant some rye or oats with this win- ( . j ter crop vetch. . , 1 _ k There is another, reason for having ' c _ : - ^ > '* growing crop on your turn or coiic-ton plht this Winter. You have L1 noticed that when you quit cultivating 1 corn or. cotton, "Mother Nature" tries . .to oover -the ground with weed? J Rt ason of this is that a hare soil loses . ' . i lots of plant food whenever it rains ^ during.i-he l&te fall, apd .winter. The > rain dissolves the plant food and we, - * ? jsiey. $hdt it .leaches out or washes ? away. ^So in addition to ?he nitro- ! ' gen that your legume crop, vetch, will gather fi^onf the air and put in the,? 9011, your vetch and >oats covers the j _ ground during, the winter and -keeps < the plapt food from being washed . \ ' away, by the winter rain., ( If you -grow rye and\yetch. or oats . ] on/9 vat/?h o r?Invar fnr o /%r?vd>? nrnn 1 , TRESPASS NOTICE.
