Choose The Plant That Is Adapted
To Your Soil And Fits Your Needs
Farmers such as J. B. Copeland of Delray, Jimmie
Allen of Beckville, Lawson Knight and Horace Allison of
Carthage, Holland Smith of Ridervillt*. Frank DeBerry
farm near Woods, Charles Tucker of Murvaul, M. II. Shi-
vers of Beckville, Jewel Poss of Antioch, Harvey Briggs of
Rock Hill, and many others have been making prepara-
tions such as getting their seed, fertilizers, inoculant, soils
analysis made, seedbed prepared and are getting their
1963 winter legumes and grass plantings underway.
3 For best results prepare a
good seedbed.
4. Drill or broadcast use approx
innately 25 pounds per acre. When
planted in combination with oats
or rye the amount of seed may be
slightly reduced.
Austrian Winter Peas and Dixie
Wonder Peas are thought of by
many as the backbone of success-
ful row crop farming This is sub-
stantiated by the increased accr
age dial is planted annually for a
legume cover to be turned under
or out into the soil for improve-
ment.
1 Each type pea grows well on
most soils except the wet natured
and the deep sandy soils.
2 Th" fertilizer requirements
are approximately the same as for
vetch
3. Seed may be broadcast and
covered by running middle buster
furrows between cotton or corn
^With everyone potting most of
their efforts in the direction of
wfbter grasses, legumes or cover
ci^ps. the following information
regarding several different popu-
lar, winter growing plants that
hive been tried and proven by ex-
perienced growers in your local
d|rtrict la in order
Vetch has become very popular
and may be used as a winter cover
crop on cropland or as a soil im-
proving plant on open pasture, it
furnishes good winter grazing, and
the seed are being harvested as a
cash crop.
1. Vetch grows well on all soils,
except those that are poorly drain
•d.
2. Experienced growers fertilize
according to their soils needs, as
has been determined by a soils an-
alysis. Vetch is a strong user of
phosphate, a medium user of pot-
ash and a slight user of nitrogen.

rows For well drained soils drill
ing gives the best results
4 The type of soil and method
of planting will vary the seeding
rate slightly, but approximately 4i<
pounds has proven satisfactory on
most soils
The Singletary Pea is one of the
most successful new conservation
plants to be introduced to the' She I
by-Panola Soil Conservation Dis-
trict This adapted winter grazing
legume has proven itself by build
ing up rundown pastures. has fur-
nished much green grazing of good
quality when needed badly, and
has served as a cash crop by the
harvest and sale of its seed Once
established and properly manag
ed, these peas have reseeded them
selves regularly every year.
1 Singletary peas grow well on
most upland ami bottom soils Not
as well adapted as vetch to the up-
land deep sands, but grows better
th^n other winter legumes on soils
that aren’t too well drained.
2. Fertilization requirements are
about the same as for vetch.
3. Should be seeded on well pro
pared firm seedbed and covered
very lightly.
4. Forty pounds of clean scar-
ified seed" are used, 50 pounds is
considered a minimum seeding
rate.
Crimson Clover needs no intro-
duction to farmers in this area,
four years ago there were only a
few acres, the last two years there
have been several thousand acres
and from all indications the plant
ing will be materially increased
this fall. Most people know by this
time, that crimson clover is a good
soil improving legume with a deep
root system that will furnish high
protein grazing during the winter
and spring and many have had an
extra cash crop from the sale of
seed harvested on their farm.
1 The best results have been ob-
tained by planting crimson on the
well drained upland soils.
2 Soil analysis on practically al’
soils calls for a complete fertilize!
for crimson.
3. Farmer experience has showr
that a good firm seedbed that has
been well prepared gives the bes1
results.
The above plants are all legumes
and it is very important that the
seed of each be inoculated w ith the
proper inoculant before planting
Kentucky 31 Fescue and the
other newer strains of fescue grass
have been descrilied by many as
the answer to the livestock farm
er’s problems. Fescue is a peren
nial that grows in the fall, winter,
and spring and is taking the place
of many bales of hay each year by
fitting into a year-round grazing
program.
1. Best results have been obtain-
ed on the 1st and 2nd bottom soils
and the highly productive upland
soils.
2. Soils analysis on practically
all soils call for a complete fer
tilizer that contains a high per-
cent of nitrogen.
3. As for the other plants good
seedbed preparation has proven to
be the best policy.
4. Approximately 20 pounds seed
cd with a cultipacker has given
good stands. Most growers seed fes
cue in combination with White
