farmer quickly discovers the fact and
changes his practice accordingly. The
fact that a part of the manure applied
to crops is OF Immediately used by
them, but remains for future years,
confuses farm ers about their business
more than Inything else says the
American Cultivator 1t is not always
possible to tell whether combining the
immediate an the ultimate benefit the
manure applied is profitable or other
wise. Usually. however, if the crop
does not at tnye pay, there is some
change at once needed, either in crop,
manure or methods OF cultivation.
There need be no fear that trying to
make manure as Immediately effective
as possible wi tend to exhaustion OF
the soil. Exhaustion comes rather
from neglect { f great restorative agen-
cies, like clover and grass, which help
to save what would otherwise be lost.
Grow as large crops of grain as
farmer may, his land is not exhausted
il he sows cl)yer with every grain
crop, and alloI Esit-te- -ggFoH- -as-te-
fill the soil with roots, feeding the
clover hay to stock and returning ma
nure to the soil. Using the CONNER
cial fertilizers thus grows more clover
and grass, and the mineral elements
in the fertilizer return to the soil all
that the grain sold from the farm re-
moves, and usJ ally something besides.
The system of blowing under clover
every other year and sowing wheat
viii, in time, make the land incapable
of producing more clover unless other
fertilizers are applied, but this need
not be feared where clover is cut and
fed to stock, and mineral fertilizers
are used to restore what the grain re-
moves. Exec oting for its mineral
fertility land can be kept in good con-
dition by liberal seeding with clover,
and the careful use of fertilizers made
on the farm. But enough mineral
fertilizer must be applied to enable
crops to use all the nitrogenous ele-
ments in the soil, else some OF these
are certain to b., wasted. lily balanced
manures for crops are nearly if not
quite as wasteiul as poorly balanced
rations for stock.

Many years ago, near Nashville,

did not give any more attention to
agricultural pursuits than absolute
necessity demanded. The main part
OF his time was spent wherever he
could find anyone who was willing to
bet with him. It mado no material
difference what he bet on or on which
side he bet. The amount of his bets
was necessarily small. He had been
known to bet his hat and coat on the
toss OF q cent.
He was taken down with fever, and
the doctor considered his case hope
less. and bluntly told him so.
