Uncle Dave Ewing was IS
years old yesteday, just two
years younger than Mother En-
terprise who celebrated her 81
anniversary with yard-stick
after the Office devil.
Washington, Apr.-The Unit
ed States Department of Agrl-
culture has issued a very inter-
esting and important bulletin on
leguminous crops for green
manuring. The bulletin points
out that the most i'm portant OBJ
ieet achieved by green manuring
is the addition of humus TO the
soil. Other things being equal,
the best green manure crop is
that which furnishes the largest
amount Of material which will
readily decay and form humus.
There are, however, additional
ways in which such a crop may
be beneficial. Deep rooted plants
are decidedly preferable to shall
low rooted ones because they
penetrate into the sub'soil, and
in this way air and water find
entrance especially after the
roots decay, thus in way every
deep rooted plant is sub-soiler.
1t is also supposed that such
plants, especially when plowed
under tend to enrich the surface
soil with potash and phosphate
from the sub-soil thus Infringing
these substances within the
reach Of shallow rooted nlan e.
