Soy beans are nitrogen gathering plants, storing this valuable element in the seil'in"available form, ind from our own' experience and that of sev- eral investigative neighbors we are convinged thatisoy beans exert a bene- ficlal infldence’ on the corn the same SOY BEAN PLANT. year they are grown with it. One: neighbor whose farm has been visited by many agricultural authorities states that soys grown iith corn on his farm increase the productivity of the corn about ten bushels to the acre, We have never grown finer well ma- tured, solid ears.of corn than that grown with soy beans. Through an abnormally wet’ season last year the corn, planted in two fields with soys was . better than that of two other fields of corn without, and while most of this was cut for silage it would be difficult to-draw a comparison in yield, but judging from the compact, well maturing ears it was a little superior. Farmers who have grown these two crops separately have experienced some difficulty in harvesting them for silage, becalise it necessitates two sets of la- -borers and the-use of extra tools, one -to cut the corn and the other to harvest the soy beans. Growing the two to- gether greatly facilitates the work of sllolng, for at a-single operation with the corn binder the two are bound. to- gether in bundles that are easily han- dled. - Not only that, but we have ex- actly. the same proportion of soy beans and corn all through and thoroughly mixed together by the silage cutter, and it only requires one man at -the table of the cutter to feed. One objection to sowing soy beans with what is termed silage corn is that the silage corn produces se much heavy foliage, which shades the beans and stunts their growth. Soy beans for good: development: require; a moderate amount of direct sunlight. Cornlike Reid’s’ Yellow Dent does not.bear so much heavy folidge nor grow so tall as to shut out sufficient light for the beans to thrive and come to full maturity. Even when one intends: to shred fod- der and he hds a-binder with which to cut.the corn the: feeding value of the fodder can be greatly improved by also improves the stalk pasture if one shucks the corn: early and does not mind the inconvenience of the vines, which. is not mmuch worse than the weeds in some cornfields. One man living near by buys a carload of lambs of soy beans and corn in August: or early September if the beans are near- They therefore harvest their own feed, make rapid gains on the corn.
