SAY IT WITH VETCH
Have you been raising around 15 bushels of
corn an acre? That yield does not pay. Tel!
that poor yielding land that you intend to plant
it in corn next spring, that you are going to
sow it with hairy vetch this fall, turn the vetch
under next spring, plant the land to corn and
get 30 bushels or'more an acre. That likely
you will put fertilizer on the vetched land and
get 40 or 50 bushels an acre.
Consult the County Agent.
