Washington, Oct 4.-Declaring that
the worlds soils are today a greater
storehouse Of fertility than they ever
were. Prof Milton Whitney, chief of
the soils bureau. in the department OF
agriculture I'm a bulletin just issued
takes stand I'm direct opposition to
the view Of many writers that soils
are gradually wearing out.
Professor Whitney states that a
record for the past forty years win
show that the average VI crops is in
creasing, particularly in the older
states where the soil has been worked
the longest. There has been, he states
an increase of two bushels i'm the aver
age yield OF wheat per acre in the
past forty years, although the yield Of
corn has decreased one-half bushel
THE soils of New England have
materially increased in yields OF corn
and wheat during the forty years, .
says the professor, but what ia more
startling, they are producing consider
ably heavier yields than the soils of
the Mississippi river states"
He adds that IN exsrinatfo- NJ
records shows that the leading Euro.
pean nations are not only producing
greater crops now than at an earlier
ueriod, but the crops are larger than
those produced by the comparatively
new soils Of the United States
