The chief needs of the average soils of Georgia and Alabama, from a fertility standpoint, are nitrogen and organic matter. 2. These needs can be supplied most economically by the addition of both summer and winter legumes to the cropping system. Winter leg¬ umes should be looked upon primari¬ ly as soil building crops to be turned under. 3. Hairy Vetch has proved to tie the best winter cover crop for soil building purposes. It has the follow¬ ing desirable qualities: (a) it is cold t resistant; (b) it is adapted to prac tieally all soil types; (e) it is not difficult to plant; (d) it rarely needs lime; (e) it ran l.e planted in the fall and turned under in the spring in time to plant either corn or cotton. 4 . Plowing under a crop of green Vetch, which, if cured, would made a ton of dry hay, per acre, will add as much nitrogen to the soil as is contained in 400 pounds of nitrate of soda. A crop of this size is not unusual where the land is well inocu lated. As turned under green, it will weigh about six tons, and will also put into the soil as much organic matter (humus) as there is in four or five tons of stable manure; and should practically double the yield of corn on average land. 6. Inoculation is very essential where Vetch is planted for the first time. Most failures are due to the Uck of inoculation. It is best to use both commercial cultures and inocu lated soil to insure inoculation. After inoculating the seed according to the directions directions (riven givtn on on the mt culture cuituri nark age, mix the seed thoroughly with anil taken from a field where Vetch has been grown successfully. It is very necessary to use enough soil to coat all the seed well, but the more soil used the better. Sow the seed, and cover immediately. Sun¬ shine kills inoculation where seed are left uncovered. 6. Timq of planting is important * October is the month in which plant¬ ing should he done except in North Georgia and North Alabama* where planting may well begin September twentieth. It is best to plant Vetch following a good season. 7. Sow from 20 to 25 pounds of Vetch seed per acre. Do not sow with oats or rye for soil improvement Vetch alone is better. 8. Vetch seed should be covered from an inch to an inch and a half deep on heavy soils, and two to three inches deep on sandy soils. The seed may be covered with any kind of plow or harrow that will get them in at the proper depth. Probably the best implement for getting the seed in at uniform depth and give inocu¬ : a lation proper protection, is the three row grain drill, using the Cole Man ufacturing Co. special Vetch plate and narrow shovels or plows.
