THE USES OF COVER CROPS. j One of the most essential parts of the > tillage system is the use of cover | sown in the late summer, to be plowed under the following spring. , The advantages of fbll sown cower j are many, especially so on some i of our light, sandy soils of Cape May County. Here axe some of the advan- ( ' tages, many of which do not occur to i the average farther. 1. The addition' of organic matter. 2. The Conservation of soluble Plant - 3. The addition of Nitrogen (if legumes are used:) 4. The transfer of plant food from' the rujb-aoil to the top eofl. 6. The concentration of plant food. I' 8. The benelicial effect upon bad^rial life in the pOjL 7. The increase of available plant food 8. The improvement of -the 'sob-soil, j 9. The re la ti ion to the Surface of the If cover 'crops are used in orchards, j they have .a beneficial effeyt t.upatr-,fihe wood grbwth. To give a clearer idea of just how the cover crops act, a brief explabation* of' the beneficial effects, as treated under! the iiine different beads, is as follows: ' 1. Any vegetable matter grow* pn a piece of ground aad plowed under, furnishes organic material, ^ the amount varying according to the kind of crop and amount of growth made. This is | the cheapest way of adding organic mat- 1 tet. jo the soil.. • J 'i Cover crops conserve salable plant food. On land left fallow during win- ' ter, much nitrogen is lost. A portion leaches downward and is carried away in drainage water, and some after de- 1 composition, passes offf into the air as j free nitrogen. Crops occuping thhe ground during the late summer and winter collect this j .soluble plant food and it becomes a part of tlie plant. More plant food is lost ' on light soils. 3. The legumes, such as vetch, and the , different varieties of clovers, if ell suppplied with nodules, gather a large amount of nitrogen from the air, so ' that legumes should be planted wnerever they will thrive. The amount of nitrogen gathered depends upon the kind, yield and matur- i ' ity of the crop. It is kown that the roots 1 and stubble, contain most of the nitro- 1 gen, however the growth of the plant is ^ very desirable to furnish organic mat--4. Plants having long roots that extend downward, such as alfalfa, gather _ considerable plant food from the sub- " 1 soil and raise it to the surface, where . succeeding crops can make use of it. . j 5. Crops with long roots, gathering . | nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, from the subsoils, and the legumes that gather large quantities from the air, [ draw plant food to the top soil, and afi' ter decomposition has taken place, the | plant food is concentrated 'within a | smaller area than before. > 6. Soils left fallow contain a certain . bacteria that not only destroys humus, i but sets free a certain amount of nitro1 gen. On the other band if cover crops [ sre used, these undesirable bacteria disappear and the kind that change ore n,

1| nitrate nitrogen, are foond is numerous ! quantities. j I 7. The action of growing crops tends I to change over and make available to j j the growing-plant, plant food that other- I wise could not be used. This pHant fodd j is returned to the soil when plowed ,J down. . . Ii 8." Cover crops improve the condition!, of the sub-soil after their roqfts decay, | thus leaving small kolqv,. q^ich means 1 better water and air' drainage No crop does well where the wR-soil is so compact that it has a poor water and ' air drainage. »i 9. The surface of the derives a,i great benefit from a winter server ciop;^ The washing of the top soil If ^reve'pte J 1 upon, hilly lands, on level sandy soils a 1 green crop' holds the soil anl -prcvents it 1 from blowing away. Cover crop also pre- • vent deeep freezing and thawing, and I heaving of the soil. Thick leaved crops - | prevent loss of moistufe by sliaJiug jibe ground through the winter, is an j important factor in proper soil manage- 1 ' ment. Where cover crops are sown in ' orchards, about August 1st to 15th, j they collect much of the available plant ; food and water, thus checking a late ' growth of the trees and ripen up thej ' wood, which means that the fruit buds j Sre in a, better condition to stand winIter weather. Other things being equal, the kind of • a cover crop to grow, is the one that ^ | grows well on your particular soil, and Iwhicl) furnishes a desirable amount of • nitrogen and organic matter, when ! ' plowed down in the early spring. j J Any crop grown on a piece of land, and plowed down, returns to the soil j alb that is taken out in its growth and j with legumes considerable pltrogen is | | added. Rye is good, crimson clover is . better, and a combination of the two I ! are better still, thus supplying -both ' nitrogen and a good amount of organic . matter. 1 Sovprsl nlotu of various kinds of Several of

' cover crops are to be planted this month, + in different parts of the county, to de- 1 . termine the best oombinnations, best ^ suited to our conditions. ' ; ^ Plant food saved is money saved, and ^ no farmer can afford to leave any ; ' ground fallow through "the winter. Even | i rye sown after late potatoes or corn > is harvested, is very much superior to ; . nothing '-and if plowed down early is ar i ijesiraWe .cover crop. GEO.' B. THRASHER, | Co. 8upt.
