THE SECRET OF PROFITABLE FARM
ING.

The leading factor in making the farm
pay is the maintenance OF crop producin
power. In state Of nature tho soil doei
no, wear out. Natures crops decay OF
the land that produces them, and eaci
year there is added TO the soil small
amount OF plant food from the weather
ing Of the rock particles OF the soil.
There are two general methods "a res
toring soil fertility: one consists in feed
ing a large proportion of the crops L
live stock, returning the resulting man
ure TO the soil; the other. in srowini
crops that add nitrogen an. humus t.
the soil, combined with the use Of com
mercial fertilizers. Generally these tw'
methods can be combined to advantage.
The most universal fault with American
farmers is the lack of appreciation of tn,
value OF good agricultural literature. Tn
successful man in any calling is Away
a student. IN addition to this, he
practical-mlnded ana "A close observer.
The farm has always been and will al
WAYS be the bulwsrk OF national charat
ter. The teaching of science are tAkinl
the drudeery out of farm life and lift
ing 1t to higher plane. There is
distinct current setting in from city
country. At is a healthy movement. Lee
