wheer one of the leading farmers A
made 59 bales of cotton on 60 acres |
and only used 300 bbufiq"s'm c;f fe:rti-;

he followed a crgg_ of corn, velvet
beans ar.i peanuts with his cotton. |
This is huill'ng your land in the
summer, {he pea will build it in the
winter, why not have something
working all the time? If you produce
cotton like this farmer in soil that
had beea built up, you can produce
it for 15 cents. This nitrogen is free
if we will cnly let erops gather it for
us.
Nov- as i hay erop these crops are ;
leaders, It is a known'flact ,?hat we '
need to moduce more hay here in
Crisp county. You can’t buy hay and ,
produce ¢ tton at the price wé are
having (e take this year. You can
make from one to two tons per acre
of oats and winter peas or vetch per
aere and the hay will come in in the
gpring /vt the time you need it to
help mdke a crop. We had several
men here jast year to grow over two
tons per acre of this hay, '
We had 200 acres planted to these
crops last ycar, we should have 1000
acres this year. We need to build
our soils and we need the hay crop.
I have 3,000 pounds of Austrian
peas ordered. If you are going to
need any winter peas or vetch, see
me and I will order them for you
The pear will cost around 13 cents
and vetch 17 delivered. You need 20
pounds per acre with oats, .
