If Not, Bo Sure to Plant a Crop of Them Before Mid Summer. <'lrin.son College. T'Ht fanners o I I 'he - southeastern .states lia \ t* n t yot I ;orao to appreciate the value of soy oeuus, a# a soil improver, as a fo.xl I 'or man, or as u food for animals, say* I Prof. G:!beart . U. Collings. of the I Agronomy Division. The soyboan is one of the moat promising legumes of j the South, and surely the South needs I to grow legumes more thau any other group of plants. In order that the I southern farmer may soc\iro larger I j ?nd more profitable yields, the nitro J (en and the organic matter of the I ?oil must be built up. This can bd I lone proAtably only through the u*e I ot legumes In our rotations. The aoybean, sometimes called the I loja bean, soya bean, or stock pea. I wan introduced Into this country from I Japan during the latter part of the j twentieth century, Altho It is not a j native, the soil and climatic condition I of the southeastern states are ideal I for its development. It is an annual I plant of upright growth, producing I large yields of both hay and grain. j At 'the present time soybeans are I more profitable to the average farmer | than peanuts, and when used to turn I under nre equal pound per pound of I organic mattor and nitrogen to cow- I peas, vetch, and other legumes. They | are better yielders than cowpoaK I when planted In rows and cultivated. I They grow earlier in the spring and I later In the fall and are more resist- I ant to drought, heat, and ^rost than eowpeas. I As a grazing crop for hogs soybeans J are among the best. As a hay crop, altho somewhat coarse, they are much I relished by livestock. The feeding I value of the hay compares very fav- J orably with alfalfa hay. As a green I manuring crop thoy add both organic I matter and nitrogen to the soil. A I test conducted by the Connecticut j Agricultural Experiment Station I found that from 100 to, 135 pounds of | nltrogon was returned to the soil each I year when the crop was used for thin I purpose. There is an ever increasing demand I for the seed, which are now being I used for a large variety of purposes. J One of the principal demnnds comes J from the oil mills. The so.fbean seed I are very rich in oil, one bushel yield-. I lng on an average one gallon of oil I when pressed. For these reasons the acreage planted to soybeans each year is steadily increasing and should I continue to Increase for some consld- 1 ernble time to come. I - The preparation of the seed bed I Is the same as the preparation I of the seed, bed for cotton, ttow- I ever, a thorough preparation must be | emphasised, .for by giving the plants! a good start a long step has been j mad? toward the successful produc- j ? tlon of the crop. The plant reacts J < readily to fertilizers, especially to the I application of phosphatic fertilizers. I Some potassium can be applied profit- 1 ably in the Coastal Plain, but nitro gen need not be applied either in the I Piedmont Plateau or the Coastal Plain. Soybeans should always be planted I hi rows, whether they are grown for seed or for hay. The row* should be 86 to 80 inches apart, depending upon the fertility of the land and the tar* iety grown. The seed should be planted just as ootton or corn. An ordinary eorn planter can be used ?very successfully for thie purpose. About 26 to 88 pounds of medium site seed should' be planted per ace. In planting, however, the seed should not be planted deeper than two Inches and under normal conditions not deeper than one and one-half Inches. Soybeans may be planted any time from early Bpring until mid-summer. For a grain crop they should be i planted early, but for a hay, pasture.! green-manur37"or soiling crop they may be planted as late as August 1st Cultivation should begin as soon as the young seed are above the ground. One deep cultivation is advised, but after that the cultivations should be shallow. Level cultivation is recom mended, hecauae-harve sting is ? thus greatly aided. ? - ' / About 10 to SO bushels of grain and 1 to 8i tons of hay will be produced per aere, depending upon the variety of bean, the climatic conditions, the fertility of the soil, and the cultiva tion received. The vines are cut with a moWer or reaper, and shocked in the field to dry. The curing Is similar to the curing of cowpea hay. ^the beans may be thrashed out with an ordin ary thrashing machine, or they may be thrashed from the atalk by special ly prepared harvesters. The choiee of a variety mfst be made by the farmer hlmself.f The, South Carolina Agricultural Experi ment Station found that Mafcmoth yellow, Brewns, Austin, Tarheel jBlack, and ffollyWeok gave the best Results la the order named In the variety test ef soybeans conducted : at thai sta tion. The Mammoth yellow is Consid ered one ef the best varieties f#r hay. As a general rale, in the southeaat era state | the.eeed do not have to he Inoculated. This la particularly true In the Coastal Plain soils. ' Tf yon have never looted Mt the soybean, give it a cfcanee (his year and yon win be fully repaid for your if AH good roots lend to nuf liflf . c LEGAL ADVERTISING.
