FERTILITY OF SOIL
Science Of the Growth OF Plants
Should Be Understood by Farmer.

A r. whitson OF the Wisconsin sta.
ton says Directly or indirectly the
food OF mankind comes from the SOIL
and there is. therefore. nothing more
important in agriculture than that the
factors which determine the produo-
tiveness OF the soil be thoroughly I'M
derstood. This bulletin is written for
the purposes OF putting before the
farmer a statement OF our present
knowledge OF the factors which influ-
ence the fertility OF the soil and OF the
relation OF these factors 20 each other.
The agricultural plants require for
growth favorable temperature. light.
and a supply Of material including car
bon dioxide, water aud certain chem
ical elements derived from the soil.
The chief of these elements are nitro
gen, phosphorus. potassium. calcium
aid magnesium. Since oxygen Ia used
at every point OF the plant where
growth takes place. II is needed at the
tops OF the roots. and therefore soil
must be- aerated. All these condi-
lions are dependent on the climate. on
the physical and chemical conditions
of the soil. and on various changes
going on In the soil.

Two wheels from an old riding pillow,

Fertilizers Pay.

No farmer should lose sight OF the
fact that all fertilizers have great
value. and not a pound of fertilizer
should be allowed TO go 10 waste. On
general principles a farmer should be

abundance OF plant food is required in
the soil. If farming is to be carried on

that every particle OF vegetable mat

non-appreciation of this fact leads to
the loss OF large quantities of barn

TARIFF AND LABOR.

If it were true, as the republicans
declare in platforms and speeches,
that the tariff protects labor, Pitts
burg should be paradise for working
men. Yet in spite of every manu-
featuring industry in Pittsburg being
protected by the tariff we hear of
thousands of men being unable to get
work, and that great distress prevails
there, and the local authorities have
been compelled to vote money to keep
many from starving. Wages are also
being reduced for those who are work
ing, but the cost of living is still near
ly at the highest point; in fact, meat
of all kinds is dearer than ever. And
yet most of these Pittsburg working
men and many elsewhere vote to elect
republicans to congress, and elect
state senators and representatives,
who in turn elect republican United
States senators, who stand pat and
refuse to reform the tariff that pro-
tects not only the Steel Trust, but the
Beef Combine and all other trusts and
combines.
These unfortunate conditions under
the present tariff are forcing the re-
publicans to promise to revise tariff
"after election" but the promise has
a string to it, for the latest platform
provides that maximum tariff is
necessary, which means still higher
tariff.
