0T1R BEST SOIL RENOVATORS.
By RARVIE JORDAN.

from the field. On the other hand. the
surplus nitrogen gathered on pea roots
ana deposited IN soil is there to stay,
no matter II the pea vines are moved
and fed green or converted INTO ray.
Ihere IS no way by which the iarmeE
can prevent this renovation OF his poor
SOIL when ne plants on them the COW
pea. For the free and easy circulation
OF the air through the soil, however, the
lahd upon which peas are planted should
be thoroughly and deeply plowed, else
the best results cannot be secured. How
ever, good will be accomplished even
though the peas are merely scratched in
on a piece of worn land
pHOSPHOIIC ACID AND POTASH.
CoWpeas, like all other crops, require
pEosrhoric acid and potash properly bal
anced with nitrogen to make good and
pI oftable growth. No crop of any kind
car live and develop without these three
elements being in the soil in sufficient
quantities to meet the demands of the
plants. a thousand pounds Of pure nj
trOSen to the acre would not develop
single plant, or even sustain l:fe after
germ.natjon, if there were not also pres
ent, not one, but both phosphoric acid
and potash Neither one of the three
can accomplish anything alone Tut all
must be present in properly balanced
! quantities to supply the needs of what
4 ever kind of plant life that is being cul-
! tiV2ted. The coWpea can draw sufficient
nitrogen from the air to supply more
than its need, and leave surplus be-
! hind for other crops, but the phosphoric
acid i,Ld potash required in its Develop
! ment, must be supplied artificially if
/ these elements do not exist in sufficient
quantities, naturally, III the soil. In
virgin forests freshly cleared, these ele-
ments nearly always exist in sufficient
qUs ntitics to produce crops OF any kind,
but OIL dinarily, especially lands that are
poor and need building up, phosphoric
acid and potash should be applied either
broadcast in the drill at time of SOW
lng or planting the coWpeaS For every
pound Of nitrogen consumted IN the de-
Velopment Of the coWpea vine, leaves
! fruit, etc, considera Bile amount OF
! phosrhoric acid and potash is also con
sumed. A ton of cowrea hay contains
UUally 40 pounds of of nitrogen, Sc
/ pounds Of potash and 10 pounds eff phos-
pFolic acid. The last two elements
must be supplied our of the soil Fl ON
which the crop was grown.
On sandy soil which are usually def
ciCnt in potash, the coWpea can make
good use of 40C pounds Of llaint and 20(
ponds of phosphorc acid. mix and ap-
piled to each acre soWn or drilled. Or

of the crop, and which will pay heav,
