annually.
There IS nitrogen in snow, but some
Of us would like 10 receive 1t as q gift In
some other form!
The corn plant Is a deep feeder. and
The soil on which it is grown should bS
lousencd deeply.
The area of corn land canno greatly
increase, but what we have can be made
90 produce twice as much as Il does at
the present time.
Our farmers must learn to utlliz.
every resource and utilize it completely.
This Is the secret that has made many a
manufacturer rich,
BY proper preparation of the land and
judiCiOuS cultivation of the growing crop,
It Is possible to greatly increase the
