riding jump straw. Every one laughed,

ASHES ron SANDY SOILS.

Almost all sandy soils lack potash.
Even when it is present, unless there
is also some vegetable matter in the
coil 10 furnish carbonic acid gas, the
potash forms a union with the sand,
and thenceforward can only be re-
leased as it is some way made soiu-
be. The benefit from applications Of
potash to sandy soil is direct. They
supply the kind of plant food in which
1t is deficient, and which is a neces-
sity for all plants. But the use of pot
ash in the form of ashes is not restrict
ed to sandy soils. Most heavy soils
have more or less potash in insolubie
form. AS the caustic potash in the
ash changes it makes the potash and
phosphate in the soil near it soluble
also, and thus potash win sometimes
oblige the soil to supply to the plants
the phosphate they require to make
grain crop. But in such cases the pot
ash does not take the place OF the
mineral. 1t simply enables the plant
to get phosphate that was in the soil
but not in soluble form.

BURNING sruBBLR BEFORE FLOWING.

The long stubble which is usually
turned under the furrow in blowing
for winter wheat is only an injury to
the crop. The stubble has almost no
manurial value, and the little it has is
potash, which is saved by burning it
on the ground. This also disposes OF
many OF the small weeds which are so
charred that their further growth is
stopped. The effect OF dry stubble
plowed under after midsummer is to
keep the soil too light oil winter. OF
course it fills with water, and the grain
sown in the fall has pretty good
chance to be winter killed. Besides,
such stubble plowed under makes the
soil too dry all the fall for the grain
to make the right kind of growth.
The ash of the straw on the contrary,
attracts moisture, and if the-land is
plowed after burning stubble it will be
moister than if there had been no
stubble to burn. There is no advan.
tage in burning straw on land that is
not to be plowed. The straw helps to
hold snow evenly over the grass and
clover seeding, and it is usually beaten
down to the ground before spring, so
that it rots and is out OF the way be-
fore clover or grass cutting time. -
