The Bulletin 43 



Or for sections of the county in Avliicli cotton is grown one similar 

 to tliis might be used : 



First Year — Corn. 



Second Year — Wheat or oats, red clover. 



Third Year — Red clover. 



Fourth Year — Cotton, rye. 



A similar method of fertilization should be adopted Avith these four- 

 year rotations as is given for the three-year rotation. 



FIVE- OR SIX-YEAR ROTATIONS. 



Any of these rotations with two years of pasture added would make 

 them even better adapted to live-stock farming. Wliere it is desired to 

 grow cotton, the following six-year rotation should, under an intelli- 

 gent supplemental system of fertilization and proper cultivation, give 

 good results : 



First Year — Corn, with cowpeas in the row or sown just before the 

 last cultivation. 



Second Year — Cotton, with rye sown broadcast in the cotton after 

 the first picking and covered with a harrow or light cultivator. 



Third Year — Rye plowed under, cowpeas, wheat or oats. 



Fourth Year — Wheat or oats, red clover. 



Fifth Year — Red clover. 



The fertilizer here, too, would be similar to that indicated above 

 for a three-year rotation.
