(TO BE CONTINUED FIND SOY BEANS MAKE GOOD FEED Increasing Interest in Hay Crop for Dairy Cows. Deports coming to the college of agriculture at New Brunswick, New Jersey, Indicate an Increasing Interest in soy beans as a hay crop for The heavy yields, dairy cattle. amounting to two tons on fairly good land, and the high feeding value, are believed to be the reasons for the popularity of the plant. The crop is sown at the rate of about five pecks per acre If drilled, or six pecks If broadcast by hand. Farmers have found that If the field has never raised soy beans before It Is highly desirable to Inoculate. This is easily done by the seed and soil method described In Extension Bulletin 32, Issued free by the state college of agriculture at New Brunswick; or If soil from another soy bean field Is not readily available a commercial culture Is used. The purpose of either treatment Is to Inoculate the seed with certain bucterla that are necessary for proper growth of the plants. An application of 300 to 400 pounds per acre of a complete fertilizer high in phosphoric acid and potash has been found profitable when applied to this crop.
