How to Build Up Worn Out Soils (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from How to Build Up Worn Out Soils Four other plots sown at different dates, and by different methods as to fertilization and seeding were all winter killed. This experiment continues to affirm that this oat is too tender in this locality to be relied upon except for early fall grazing and spring sowing. From November 7th, to December lst, rye was sown (the seed were saved last year, from the station field, the original seed being grown in Georgia). Every plot is doing well. The first sown is a thick mat, is heading out and stands now, April 13, from four to four and a half feet high. The' other plots are not much behind it. Heretofore at this time of the year in this locality, rye was less than a foot high and literally covered with rust. I have found no Sign of rust so far on these plots, which shows that the improvement of the soil, preparation of the land and the home-grown seed enables it, in a great measure, to resist that troublesome disease. Home-grown Red Fulsom, blue stem and ruddy wheats were sown at the same time, and are all doing well. But that sown first is quite one and a half feet high, and forms a perfect mat upon the ground. The other plots are healthy but small and thin, and are worth at this date but little for grazing or as a cover crop. Plot 21 which was sown in inoculated vetch the year previous was allowed to go to seed, securing 10 bushels of seed per acre. The land was plowed up, planted in cotton June 21. September 15, the vetch began germinating. In November, the old cotton stalks were pulled up and the vetch allowed to grow undisturbed; It is now, April 13 a perfect wealth of green stuff which would make a most superior pasture. The indications are that seed can be easily raised on our Soil. It is one of the most promising of our legumes.
