Photograph of O. W. Johnston is using a side delivery rake to cut vetch in windrows preparatory to combining. Johnston planted about 80 acres of vetch last year, mostly in combination with small grains (oats, rye, wheat, and ryegrass), but some pure vetch was also planted. All was inoculated and treated with 100 pounds per acre of superphosphate seed yield from approximately 35 acres; 18,000 pounds (vetch and small grain) of this approximately 12,000 pound are pure vetch. He planted vetch and small grain for seed and soil improvement in a 10 acre apple orchard. OK-8987.
