A. B. Young of Zach-ary, a successful Louisiana farmer. Dr. Young admits that this Is a pretty oroad assertion, but says its truth is easily proved.

"Like other clovers and all legumes," continues Dr. Young," lespedza reaches out and takes nitrogen from the air, stores it up in the nodules at the roots, and leaves the soil much I better for its having been there. It is more easily and more quickly cured than other hay, testing out a higher food value and giving a better bal anced ration than any, not excepting alfalfa, and can be fed indefinitely with out irritation to the-kidneys, as is the case with afalfa. It will not salivate, nor bloat any animal whatever, as do other clovers. Stock prefer it to any other pasturage, and they wax fat upon it." Dr.

Young thinks that no farmer who plants oats should ever fail to sow lespedeza on his oat land from March until June, as this crop will al ways restore much of the nitrogen taken up by the growing oats and will afford an excellent pasturage after the oat crop has been taken off, or it will yield from a half to four tons of hay, according to the fertility of the soil, without any extra cost except the top ping of the weeds and the harvesting of the crop. Many will say that lespedeza will yield better on poor land than on rich, but Dr. Young does not find this to be the case; he does find, however, that poor land planted to this crop soon become very rich in nitrogen. Rich lands have been known to yield four tons of choice hay per acre, while poor lands the first year may not yield more tnan a -half a ton. A good crop of Lespedeza hay will permit a farmer to turn much of his corn or oats- into money, says Dr.

Young, because by selling the oats or corn he can spend a little of that money for black-trap molasses to pour oyer the hay to supply all the carbohyd rates needed, and a little more of the money for cotton seed meal, which will regulate the protein element. This combination makes the best balanced ration, as well as the cheapest that can be found. The fine hay produced by the farmer supplies all the roughage and a good percentage of carbohydrates and protein, while the cotton seed meal and molasses can regulate the last two elements at will. One pound ot cotton seed meal i sequlval-ent to three pounds of grain in protein content, and molasses is almost wholly carbohydrates. Dr.

Young' says that at least 25 pounds ot Lespedeza seed should be planted on an acre, if the best results are to be obtained. Any farmer, anywhere, wishing to plant Lespedeza seed correctly, can obtain all necessary data, absolutely free, from the Lespedeza Seed Growers Cooperative Association Baton Rouge, La. The foregoing organization is composed of experts on Lespedeza hay and seed its proper cultivation. If desired, they are in position to supply comparative analyysis of hay HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT'S GOOD ROADS PROGRAM Montgomery, Jan; 14.
