The lack of necessary bacteria in the soil is often the cause of a poor legume crop—a weak start—or a total failure. BENEFITS OF INOCULATION The principal reasons for inoculation can be stated in five short paragraphs, viz.: First—Inoculated legumes take nitrogen from the air to supply the plant, re- sulting in faster grovd;h, earlier maturity and larger crops. Second—Inoculated legumes take up more nitrogen than the plant itself requires, the surplus remaining to the benefit of future crops. Third—Inoculated legumes develop larger root stystems than when not inoculat- ed and therefore reach the immense stores of potash and phosphorus in the sub-soil, bringing them up to supply the plant. When the roots and stubble decay these ele- ments are also returned to the soil in a form available for future crops. Fourth—Inoculated legumes, by taking their nitrogen from the air, save the soil. When not inoculated they drain the soil of its nitrogen just the same as wheat or timothy or other leguminous plants. Inoculated legumes contain more protein matter than when not inoculated, great- ly increasing their feeding value. PRICES FOR FIELD NITRAGIN -bu. size inoculates 15 lbs. seed $ .40.
