v V. * • / W\S*r ' . FACE TW<^ HOW TO CUT THE NITROGES BILL W. W. Lonf UrgM Every Far* mer in Seatll Carolina to Plant Winter THE PRESS AND STANDARD, WALTERBORO, S. G AUGUST 5,1914 DECLARES BLEASISM Cl«neoa Collete, July 28.—Four parties oY institute workers, all ag* ricultural experts •n>m Clemaon College, are going into every county in South Carolina and impressing upo n the fanners they talk to of the great need for winter cover crops. They sill take up all phases of agriculture, but all have been in structed to leave no stone untune ed to encourage the planting of large acreages in cover crops One meeting in every county has been designated "Vetch and Clover Day" aud'this institute will be . devoted Inrg'ly to a discussion of these sub jects. W. \V. Lone, state agent of de monstration and director of exten sion of Clemson College, in the fol lowing statement, impresses upon the farmers fhe importance of cover crop* to South Carolina: "Thfr limiting factor' in Southern agriculture, M said Mr. Ix>ng. "Is the lo< k of vegetable matter In the soil. -1 have said this before and I expect to say it many times more, because if is something that cannot be s-’ld too often. If v.e wjuld make the farmers of this state realize the full meaning of this statement and could make them direct their agricultural efforts accordingly, a large part of our task in South Carolina would be accomplished. "Farmers should require no other proof of what is to be accomplish ed by the use of cover crops than the proof given by the abundant yields on virgin aol's about them. Virgin soil means v-rely soil with ample vegetable matter or humus. "Worn-out” soil means soil in which this necessary element is wanting. Putting a (lean cultivated crop on land year aftef year is certain to bring about a ‘wo r n-out’ condition, uness one resorts to the use of cov- «r crops each winter, whieh is man’s jnethod of restoring to the soil th valuable vegetable matter which has been taken from it during the summer. . "This stale, according to a bulle tin of the department of agriculture, had only 387 acres In clover of all kinds in 1909. Today we have many thousands of acrea In. clover. It Is probable that the percentage of irr- crease i n acreage of leguminous crops for the four years last pa«t has been greater in South Carolina than in any other state. Notwith standing this fact, we have simply made a beginning. “A farmer’s first need Is good innd The lands of the South have been depleted by a combination of unfortunate circumstances and care lessness. The Southern farmer’s first need Is. therefore, to make his land good land and the most eco nomical and easiest way to do this Is bjr the use of winter rover crops "During the warm spells wh«’r- frequently occur in South Carolina in winter, large quantities of nitro gen become available in the soil and escape if there is no crop to take care of them. In addition to hold ing this valuable element in the soil legume* used for winter cover crop* take large quantities of nitrogen from the air, a property peculiar to them, thu* making toll even richer than ’when they were put Into It, In stead of poorer, aa do moat other crone. "Legumes are the beet friends the South Carolina farmer haa Grow legumes and cut the nitrogen bill." The Aiken Call Conference Was Held in CohunNa Saturday. NEWS FROM BTOftSit | - stokes.
