Photograph of Victor Lewis (left) and H. Hoffman, Soil Conservation Service [SCS] technician on the right, examining Bermuda grass which is making a vigorous growth in a field of hairy vetch. This was a needle grass field and out of cultivation since 1949 until the hairy vetch was seeded in the needle grass (but without seed bed preparation) and fertilized at the rate of 400 pounds of 0-20-0 fertilizer per acre. This is one method of establishing Bermuda grass on needle grass land. Where there is no Bermuda grass present, it is necessary to sod the land after the fertility has been improved with vetch and 0-20-0 fertilizer. Class VI, Soil Unit 6. TX-47-601.
