CROP MAY BE SEEDED ALONE Fair Yield of Excellent Hay May Be Cut If Condition Warrant Farmer Must Judge for Himself What Crop to Grow. PrparJ by the I'nlled State of Agriculture.) Department Where a reduction of corn acrenge eeems advisable and the lurid has lime enough, sweet clover will lend Itself admirably to boII Improvement at low cost. While the usual way of seeding Is ou "winter grain or with spring grain, the United States Department of Agriculture advises that It may well be seeded uloue on land that Is now without a crop. Such laud should be harrowed as early as possible and the seed harrowed In, or where the land dries slowly the seed may be scattered directly on the ground as the frost Is coming out. There Is no eed to plow, and so practically the whole expense will consist of the cost of the seed which at present ia low. Scarified seed should be used. the farmer will have to turn to grasn or clover. Every farmer must Judge for himself whether to grow corn, whether to substitute soy beans or some other crop, or whether to rest the land and derive little or no Income from It for one season. The above suggestion is offered by the Department of Agriculture as one way to improve the land while resting it, and to do this with the' minimum of expense and labor.
