HUNGARIAN QI 
in a ton of hungarian, think of the vast quantities of 
organic matter to plow under and available as humus, 
and for loosening up the soil and for soil ventilation. 
If hungarian is used as a plowing-under crop, I would 
advise sowing it after the wheat or oats crop is gath- 
ered, discing or plowing the ground deep, then when 
hungarian is in blossom and before the seed has ma- 
tured, plow under five or six inches deep and sow to 
rye. You then have the advantage of from two or 
three plowings of the soil during a season, which I 
have shown to be a manuring in itself, as “tillage is a 
manure.” Your soil is also covered during the leach- 
ing season, and has in the spring another valuable crop 
for plowing under. 
By a little hustling a crop of hungarian could be sown 
after wheat, plowed under in time to sow wheat in the 
fall and which would be of immense value to the wheat 
crop.
