When sandy soil becomes impov-
crished it means that continued cult
vation has exhausted the small amount
of vegetable matter it contains, and
that such soil is the most difficult of
all to restore to fertility. Glover will
not grow on it, because there is not
humus. and without this the applica
tion of the mineral fertilizers. lime
and potash, which clover needs does
no good. There must be FIRST all in
crease Of vegetable mould in the soil
and this must he accomplished by
sowing some large seed of plants that
grow quickly, and which do not need
mineral fertilizers which the soil in
This condition cannot furnish. Some
OF the grains are usually GOwn for this
purpose, though most Of the grains
have narrow leaves and derive too lit
tie Of their growth from the air. We
have known buckwhcat TO he sown
repeatedly on such laud, blowing 1t
under when III blossom and resolving
while the green stalk was ro,tiug be
meath the furruw. In this way cnoueh
vegetable matter may be produced IN
single season TO warrant seeding the
land with rye in the fall, sowing also
timothy grass to make q sod when the
rye IS Oft. in The spring SOW clover
seed, and by this time q DRESSING of
wood ashes or potash in other form
will find enough humus in the soil 10
make its lime and potash available. II
the muriatc or sulphate of potash is
sown instead of wood ashes, give the
land also dressing of lime. In this
way single year may be time enough
IN which to get good seeding of
clover, and when clover can be grown
1t depends on the farmer not to allow
the land to get in such run down con
