LAND FERTILITY.

are raised and the care given the land

may be cited English farms which to-
day actually produce larger Yields Of
roots and grain than they did $40 years
ago or farms in Holland where large
yields of flax are produced year after
year under careful system Of artin-
cial fertilization. An opposite extreme.
but still further illustrating the truth
Of the statement above made. is the
system of cotton growing which has
been followed in the southern states.
