GEORGIA EXPERIMENT STATION, EY
I’KUI.MENT. GA.
Green Manarlng With Cow Pen*.
Press bulletin No. C, published in
March, concluded with the intimation:
“Green manuring with cow peas will
be in good time next month.” This
subject was deferred until now be
cause its discussion would be most
timely just before the season arrived
for planting cow peas. The following
is taken from bulletin No. 24:
EXPERIMENT NO. 6. —GREEN MANURING
WITH FIELD PEAS.
The object of the experiment was to
find out what disposition of a crop
of cow pea vines would give the best
economic results, In 1892 a two-acre
section of land, from which a yield
of 50 to 60 bushels of oats
had just been harvested, was sown
broadcast in speckled peas and fertil
ized with 200 pounds of acid phosphate
per acre. #
When the vines had reached the
proper stage for hay, or for turning
under, the section was divided into six
teen equal plots. On every Ist, sth,
9th and 13th plot the oeas were per
mitted to ripen on the vines and were
gathered and weighed. On the 2d, 6th.
JOth and 14th plots, the vines were
mown and left on the surface. On the
3d, 7th, 11th and loth plots the vines
were turned under green: and on the
4th, Bth, 12th and 16th plots the vines
were made into hay—the same day the
vines on the preceding series were
turned under—and the hay carefully
cured and weighed.
Table No. VI. gives a plain ssatement
of ths renults, showing that it is de
cidedly the most profitable disposition
of the crop is to gather the ripe peas.

CONCLUSIONS.
1. That the best disposition of a crop
of field peas is to convert the vines into
hay.
2. The next best is to permit tlie peas
to ripen and gather theta, or pasture
them.
8. Mowing the vines and permitting
them to lie on the surface and plowing
under in November was decidedly
better than turning the vines under in
August.
4. Turning the vines under gave the
poorest economic results.
Note. —It would seem that turning
under a crop of green pea vines in mid
summer or early fall is not the proper
thing to do. The vines probably added
as much to the soil when tusned under
green as when cut and left on the sur
face, or as when the ripened peas were
picked and the stubble turned under
after frost. In both cases where the
vines were cut and left on the surface
and where the peas were gathered the
soil was turned over early in No
vember. But the turning under of the
green vines before the hot weather
was over seemed to result in some de
leterious action on the soil.
Possibly the above account of the ex
periment is not perfectly clear and ex
plicit in some of the details. Bear in
mind the fact that it extended over the
period of two years. In 1892 a large
vield of oats was harvested from the
land and the latter was then sown to
cow peas and fertilizer with 200 pounds
of acid phosphate per acre. The fer
tilizer formula set forth in the table
was applied and the land planted in
cotton in 1893. The table combines and
compares the results of the pea crop of
189*, and the cotton crop of 1893, but
does not include the oat crop which
was harvested just before the peas were
planted.
So far as one experiment can prove
anything the conclusion drawn above
can not be disputed, being unmistakably
clear and pointed. Some of the results
were rather unexpected. For instance
the series of plot* on which the pea
vines were mown and left on the sur
face until November and then plowed
under, produced twenty-four pounds
less of cotton per acre the next year
than the plots from which the peas
were gathered when ripe and the vines
and debris turned under in November.
The amount, however, was small when
the difference in the yield of cotton
only is considered, but when the value
of the peas is taken into account the
difference in the yield is considerable.
The value of the 24 pounds of seed cot
ton was only 58 cents, but the 7.55
bushels of peas were worth $5.66, mak
ing a total difference in favor of allow
ing the peas to ripen and harvesting
them, as compared with mowing the
vines and permitting them to lie on the
surface until November, of $6.24. The
same results practically, would have
have been realized had the peas been
gathered by cattle or hogs, thus saving
the expense of picking.
Now compare each of the above se
ries, Nos. 1 . and 2, with series 3, in
which the Tines were turned unde*

green, and the difference is strikingly
against the plan of turning under tha
green vines, amounting t 057.65 in favor
of picking the ripe peas, and 81.41 in
favor of mowing the vines and leaving
them on the surface.
Hut the most striking comparison—
and it is the salient point of the whole
experiment—is that of each of the first
three series with series 4, in which the
vines were mown and made into hay at
the same time that those on series 2
were mown and left on the surface.
The yield of cotton from series 4 (vines
made into hay) was somewhat less
than from either of the other series:
but we have instead of the three to four
dollars’ worth of cotton 1,913 pounds of
well-cured hay, worth 514.35. The total
yields of the series 4 for the year (not
counting the oat crop) was go. 28 greater
than that of series 1, §11.52 greater than
that of series 2, and 512.93 greater than
that of series 3. But there is still an
other point of advantage in converting
the vines into hay: If the manure—
solids and liquids—resulting from feed
ing one ton of hay to fattening or work
animals, be returned to the soil it will
be as effective on the succeeding crop
as an application of $7 of commercial
fertilizer. In other words the elements
of plant food that result from one ton
of cow pea hay fed to such animals, in
the form of manure, would cost, if
bought in market, not less than §7.
This is shown by the analysis of cow
pea hay, which is as follows:
fine ton of cow pea hay contains: —
Nitrogen 39 lbs at 10c £6 24
Phosphoric acid 10 lbs at 5c 50
Potash 29 lbs at 5c 1 45
Total manure value $8 T 9
Farmers generally are well aware of
the fertilizing value of a crop of pea
vines. It has been a well known fact
for more then a generation. Because
of the similarity of uses the cow pea
has been aptly called the clover of the
south. No argument is needed to con
vince the southern farmer of a fact al
ready so well known. But the value of
the pea vine hay and *the proper aud
most economic disposition of the pea
crop is not so well understood. The
idea of green manuring came into the
south from the practice of northern
farmers, who, in turn, received it from
England. But an erroneous notion
prevails that the crop should be turned
under, and this idea is doubtless based
on the assumption that in old clover
growing countries the full growth of
clover is turned under for manure.
This, however, is not the general prac
tice. On the contrary the intelligent
northern farmer converts the first, and
often the second, cutting of each of
two years into hay, and finally turns
under the aftermath, or the clover sod,
as a preparation for a crop of grass,
wheat or other grain.
It is little less than folly to produce
a crop of pea vine vines ready to mow
and to be cured into a most nutritious
hay and then turn it over and re-con
verting it into soil. It is not denied
that such a course will build up the
soil more rapidly than if the vines be
removed and not rest/ r and to that par
ticular soil. So also would a crop of
wheat or cotton, or any other crop, im
prove and enrich the soil when turned
under at an advanced or mature stage
of growth. Wheat bran makes an ex
cellent manure, buf no one would think
of using it directly for such a purpose
so long as he can find an animal to con
sume it.
The true policy is to use nothing for
manure that can be fed to live stock.
This rule would forbid the use cotton
seed meal directly as a manure. So be
it. It is unwise to use this valuable
foodstuff as a fertilizer excepting the
surplus over and above what may be
judiciously fed to live stock.
It is the purpose of this bulletin to
urge Georgia farmers to give more at
tention to the cow pea as a source of
food and soil fertility. It draws largely
on the atmosphere for its supply of ni
trogen and on the deep subsoil for
much of the phosphoric acid, potash,
lime, etc., required for its development.
The stubble, including the roots and
fallen leaves, is rich in plant food and
is necessarily left in the soil. The hay
crop removed and fed to stock yields
beef, milk and butter, enery and
strength to labor, and finally, in the
form of manure, from 80 to 90 per cent
of the plant food that the hay con
tained may be returned to the soil.
It -would be easy to compile the re
sults of experiments with cow peas at
other experiment stations, north as
well as south. They all agree:
1. That cow pea hay is a most valua
ble food.
2. That the cow pea is a very effect
ive soil improver.
3. That the most judicious plan is to
convert the vines into hay and turn
under the stubble only.
IIOW TO FERTILIZE THE COW PEA.
Many farmers may be surprised at
the suggestion to fertilize at all, or the
idea that it will grow on the poorest
land. But it pays as well, and many
think better, to fertilize the cow pea
than any other crop. It responds read
ily to fertilizers. And, best of all, it
does not require an expensive fertilizer.
Asa rule no nitrogen is required, ex
cept on the poorest worn-out soils.
Acid phosphate and potash, principally
the first named, are all that is required.
Two hundred pounds of acid phosphate
and 100 pounds of kanit (or 25 pounds
of muriate) per acre will generally be
sufficient to produce a good crop when
sown after small grain. On piney
woods, sandy soils, more potash might
be added.
Broadcasting after small grain is the
usual way, sowing one to one and a
quarter bushels per acre and plowing
the seed in with turn shovels or first
breaking the stubble with a large two
horse turnplow, and then harrow in
the seed with a cutaway harrow. But
some incomplete experiment-; indicate
that more vines as well as more peas—
a much better development every way
—will result from planting the peas in
drills 2 1-2 to 3 feet wide, and culti
vating once or twice.
Every corn field should he sown in
cow peas at the last plowing, for
which purpose one-half bushel of seed
per acre will do very well.
Yarieties will not be discussed at this
time, as the experiments on that line
are not conclusive. But the Unknown,
Red, Tory, Black. Clay and Whippoor
will —all well known varieties, may be
planted with success.
ROTATION.
On every farm there should be
adopted a systematic rotation of crops.
Of course, conditions may be such that
it will sometimes be expedient to change
the rotation somewhat, but the genera]
features should he constantly kept in
view. On the Station farm the rotation
adopted four years ago and since fol
lowed with little variation is as follows,
beginning with small grain: First y*ear,
small grain,, principally oats, well fer
tilized with nitrogenous fertilizers.sueb
as stable manure, cotton seed (or cotton
meal), nitrate of soda, dried blood, etc.,
and followed immediately with, com

De-Horning Cattle.
In the early spring of last year the
station herd of twelve cows were suc
cessfully de-liorned. and the results
were in every respect satisfactory*.
There was no fever, or prolonged sore
ness and no loss of milk: but a great
gain in the improved temper and harm
less condition of the animals, some ol
whom were before vicious and danger
ous. The details of the operation and
the results on the station cattle were
published in Bulletin 21, of which a
copy will be sent to any farmer who
will write for it. Since the work of
de-homing the station herd was done J
many farmers and dairy*men have de- j
horned, and on several occasions Mr. !
11. J. Wing, dairyman qf the station, I
has performed the operation and in 1
different places in the state. In Janu- i
ary* last a farmer living near Jones- I
boro, had the horns removed from thir- j
ty-six of his cattle, Mr. Wing doing the
work. In reply* to a letter as to liow .
h's cattle were doing, he writes as fol- I
lows:
Regarding the de-horned cattle I
will say I do not care to have others
de-horned while exposed without shel
ter to bad weather, as mine were. All
are doing well and I have lost none.
Several took cold and the flies have
given some trouble lately, but tar and
turpentine was used. After
this experiment under many and sadvant
ages I am quite sure it pays to de-horn
large herds of cattle. I do not think
you would risk much if you were to in
sure their lives. With proper attention
not one in a thousand would be lost, It
is a great advantage to the poor and
sickly ones, and the fat and strong are
much better by not being gored. If I
were going to keep a strong herd of
cattle not longer than three months I
would de-horn them.

Wheu our native potatoes crack and

in the sril iu your opinion?
Answer by 11. N. Starnes, horticul
turist:
Abortive and cracked growth in po
tatoes probably due to the suspension
of growth during dry weather, fol
lowed by a sudden resumption of
growth under the impulse of restored
moisture.
Generally, the richer the soil espe
cially* in nitrogen, or the more heavy
the application of nitrogenous fertil
izer. especially when concentrated or
not thoroughly incorporated in the soil
the worse will be the cracking when
the ferti.izer becomes suddenly availa
ble by* i-estored moisture following a
drouth.
W. E. C.. Cordele. Ga.: I have planted
a field of corn, manured with green
cotton seed. Now I am thinking of
adding 75 or 100 pounds of acid phos
phate when l plow it. Would it be a
good idea and how much? I have
planted the remainder of my crop and
manured heavily with cotton seed, sta
ble manure and compost. If it is best
1 want to muiture it e\ ery' time I
plow it.
Answered by Director Redding:
If you will read bulletins 10, 11. 16,
20 and 23, you will find that the results
of experiments in “intercultural” fer
tilizing of corn were not favorable, es
pecially when cotton seed meal or acid
phosphate was used. Nitrate of soda
may often be profitably applied as late
as May 15. but not later, except to
make a good after crop of grass. It is
better as a rule, to apply all ertilizers
for summer crops before or at the time
of planting.
B. B. G., Fayetteville. Ga., says:
Please inform me if you have any re
port or bulletin on the proper time of
the moon to plant corn and other crops.
It is generally claimed in this section
that the moon governs the yield of all
crops. Ido not believe it.
Answered by Director Redding:
tSo far as I know none of the experi
ment stations have made any experi
ments to determine whether the moon
exerts such an influence on vegeta
tion. Among educated and intelligent
men, especially scientific men, the the
ory finds no advocates, and is consid
ered as one of those old superstitions
that have been handed down from
father to son for generations past. I
have supposed that the belief might
have originally been based on a misun
derstanding of the last clause of Gene
sis, Ist chapter and 14tli verse, where it
says, in referring to the creation of the
“lights in the firmament of the
heaven,” “and let them he for signs
and for seasons and for days and for
years.”
The station publishes a bulletin of
res\ilts once a quarter and sometimes
oftener. These bulletins will be sent
free to any farmer in Georgia actively
engaged in farming (which includes
gardening, fruit culture, dairying, etc.)
who will request them. Drop a postal
