In n bulletin from the Central Ex-
pertinent farm. Ottawa. Canada, may
be found a discussion of the profitable
ness of growing and turning of clover
crops. Extensive experiments in this
line have been carried on at that farm
for period of over eight years. and
the results gathered therefrom CON
tain considerable amount OF prac-
teal information and data. The ad-
vantages derived from plowing under
clover are briefly stated by the station
rs follows:
l. There is an enrichment of the
soil by the addition of nitrogen OBJ
tanned from the atmosphere.
2. There is mn increase in the store

vigorous crop growth. Humus also
furnishes the material best adapted
for the development of these forms of
germ life that act so beneficially in
the soil.
4. AS an agent for deepening and
mellowing soils, no crop gives such sat
isfaction in results as clover.
3. Glover serves n useful purpose
as catch crop during the autumn
months, when the ground would be
otherwise bare, retaining fertilizing
material brought down by the rain,
and also that formed in the soil dur
ing the summer months, much of
which would otherwise be lost through
the teaching action of rains.

ments over a number of years with
the more important fam crops. the

a most marked effect in increasing the
soils productiveness.
