Why The Failure ?

Thirty years ago the Iowa farmer had
no trouble in raising twenty bushels per
acre of plump, heavy wheat. The
inquiry is made, what is the cause of
the gradual failure of this cropp Has
the climate changed, or is the failure at
tributable to a deterioration of the
wheat? 1t is not either. 1t is the exhaus-
ton of the soil by cultivation and by the
washing of rains. For unnumbered
ages an annual coat of ashes had been
deposited upon our prairies by the
prairie fires. The alkali of these ashes
has been largely incorporated in the
soil This is one of the important fac
tors in successful wheat growing. The
exhaustion of this element in the soil,
which is rapidly done by the cultivation
of the cereals, causes weak stalks,
shriveled grains, blight, etc. But, says
farmer, when new prairie is now
broken up, it fails to raise such wheat
as it did twenty-five years ago. This is
true. But the improvement of the
State has mainly put stop to prairie
fires, and the annual deposit of ashes is
not made on the unbroken prairie. The
alkai which was deposited in the soil
twenty years ago has evaporated or
been carried off by the heavy rains, a
little each year, and none being re-
tanned, it is now nearly as devoid of this
essential element as the cultivated fields.
So it may not be expected that, so far
as small grain is concerned, Jour soil will
ever again produce profitable crops.
The same causes are destined to make
the situation in the future far worse in
Minnesota and Dakota. The alkai
deposited by the autumal fires in those
vast regions will soon be exhausted by
constant crops of wheat. Reason and
the whole history of agriculture teaches
this. But when their soil is exhausted,
they have nothing to fall back on. 1t
is not a corn region. Grass may -four
ish there, and though grass may be
king, yet grass alone makes a poor
empire. To replenish these immense
fields with commercial fertilizers is i'm
possible; hence, until science shall ena-
BILE us to make drafts at will on the
nitrogen of the skies, when once
exhausted those fields will have to be
abandoned forever for the rich product
which is drawing the world into the
Northwest.-Ioao1S State Register.

Feeble Glimpses of a Great Truth.

numbering above 65.OOO souls, with a voting
force of 5000, enters no more into the calcu-

franchised element. Massachusetts is the only
one of these States, as far as we know, where a
colored man has been hOn0red with q seat in
