The complete shading of the soil rapidly
enrches it, even without he application of
manure. 1t may be that shading causes
deposit OF nitrogen from the air; but be that
as it may, every farmer knows that where
ever a stack of hay and straw has stood for
several months, the ground underneath it is
not only enriched but grows much darker
in color. Anyone may try this experiment
as follows: Select the poorest spot OF
ground on the farm, and lay over strip OF
any length, but about a yard wide, few
inches of straw, and cover with board, or,
if preferred, lay only board on the ground.
If the place is then seeded to something,
the difference in growth between that por-
ton shaded and that not shaded will be very
marked.

IN planting trees the fact that success de-
pends more on the condition of the. tree at
the time of planting than on the earliness or
lateness of the season is too frequently over
looked. A tree or shrub that has been dug
early in the spring, properly cut back, care

essential whether it rains or not. There are
a few localities where there is rain enough,
but we would not advise farmers to depend
too much on it. They would do better to
water their fields right along just the same
as if there was no rain. as they are not liable
to get them TOO wet.

those who grow oals sometimes claim
that they draw more from the soil than
wheat. bat one whe has given the matter
attention states that where he has known an
average crop of corn to take 76 pounds OF
nitrogen. wheat 80, oats took only 30, and
of potash and phosphoric acid oats took less
than either corn or wheat. He thinks. how
ever. that oats derive less from the atmos-
phere than other crops, receiving their nour-
ishment from the soil alone; and while he
knows that this crop requires less of nitro
gen, potash, and phosphoric acid than corn
or wheat, yet. for some unnccountable rea-
son, it seems to he harder on soils than the
