The two methods of Inoculation are by transfer of soli from an established field of the legume which oue Intends to grow and by the use of pure nitrogen fixing cultures. In the former case from 200 to 300 pounds of soil from a healthy old field of the.same crop or a thrifty new field are mixed with several times its weight of ordinary soil and the mixture drilled or broadcasted on the land to be sow ed to the legume. If broadcasted the field should be harrowed immediately, and. If possible, this should be done to ward evening or on a cloudy day, as sunshine is very harmful to the bac teria. In the second case a bottle of the pure culture of the proper kind of bacteria Is opened shortly before the seed Is to be planted and mixed with the proper quantity of water and this applied to the seed in such a way that all of it will be moistened, though not conditions are not suited to the growth . 4 . . . , ...
