Benefits Made in Rotating Crops
CwrItten for the EpItomIst.l

lNTltten lot tne EplIOmlSJD
Rotating crops is for the purpose OF
improving worn out soils which he
come so poor as to be wholly unfit
for producing profitable crops. To
bring the soil up to a state of fer
tility 1t is best TO combine rotation
Of crops with the application Of fer
tllzers. All plants do not feed to
an equal extent upon the manural In
gradients Of the soil. They send
their roots to different depths and
have a different solvent action upon
the constituents they reach. Rota-
ting crops destroys insect enemies.
Fungus diseases are also materially re
duced. The soil is maintained in good
tilth and bacteria, which are benefi-
cial TO the plants are more likely To
be increased. Weeds are readily elm
mated, the humus compounds of the
soil increased and the work of the
farm more easily distributed. By ju-
dlclous rotations larger crops are Sc
cured and the fertility OF the soil is
better improved. Nitrogen is the
first element exhausted in eontinu-
GUS grain culture. Grains grown in
rotation with clover recover the nj
trogen applied and part of that stor-
ed by the clover. Grains and featil-
lzers and barnyard manure are not
profitable at the present prices for
the use OF wheat, oats and corn, on
ly when they are grown in a syste-
matte rotation with clover, or some
other nitrogen collecting crcp. The
poorer the soil the smaller the prob
ability of profitable crops by the use
Of artificial fertilizers BY continn-
ally growing wheat much nitrogen is
lost This nitrogen is lost by the OK
idation OF the humus, by denitration
chemically by wind storms, and
through the loss OF nitrates by drain
age. Rotation depends upon the
soil, climate, market and to some ex-
tent, the season. Farmers must keep
in mind the ultimate end of their ef-
forts, which should be to maintain or
improve the fertility of their soil.

that his experiments show that the

the loss from lands covend with veg

Schloesing led him TO infer that this
loss is insignificant, the opinion of
other more recent Investigators. to the
contrary. seems to be better sustain
ed and more reasonable NJ, Dehemn
therefore concludes that the loss from
naked soils is infinitely greater than
that from land sown in wheat and
hence 1t is good policy for farmers
to follow up crops such as wheat
with some kind Of autumn crop.

ABOUT THAT CLUB.

The recent editorial in the In
teri Ocean. anent the reorganiza-
ton of the Business Mems club
has created consid erable interest
in that institution, and its work
in behalf of the city. It must
not be understood that reorgani-
zation is advocated in order to
change officers. They have SER
we'd too faithfully and too eff
GENTLY for that. But it is ad-
vocated for the purpose of get
ting the club in a position to
push matters that are beneficial
to the town, and to do SO intel
ligently. One thing that needs
changing is the collection of
money to defray the legitimate
expenses Of Investigating and
securing enterprises for the city.
"A few years ago the club had
an outfit Of splendid furniture,
was out Of debt and had some
thing like $400 in the treasury.
Members neglected or refused to
pay dues until all this was gone.
Some provision should be made
by which all those who would
profit by the bringing of new
enterprises to the city would be
compelled to contribute to the
expenses Of the same, or be
known to the community as OBJ
,structionists to the city's Develop
menG. Working by committees
will eliminate the need of meet
ings, with the attendant worry
and bother of getting out a
quorum. 1t is one of the forcible
illustrations Of the great advan-
tages of delegated authority.
The club needs new vitality but
it should not be injected by the
chronic kickers.
