SOIL FERTILITY.
How to Build Up Land That Has Been
OVerworked.


How TO Build Up Land That Has Been
OVerworked.
The only way to build up and hold
the fertility of the soil is to feed
large part Of the crop and return the
manure 10 the land. If manure can
not be had, the next best thing is TO
pillow under crops grown for the pur-
pose. There should be deep blowing,
but no subsoiling. Leguminous crops
should be grown for the nitrogen they
bestow upon the soil.
Most soils, even when very poor, as
a general thing, contain plenty Of
plant food except nitrogen, though
sometimes other elements are lacking.
The texture must be improved In or
der to increase fertility and plant food
and humus added. Tillage goes a
great way toward improving texture,
but this alone is not enough. Humus
must be added. and in doing so plant
food is added, making the soil more
permeabie TO air and water.
Humus is supplied to the soil, first,
by the addition of stable manure, and
this is probably the best method, call
ing for more forage crops and more
stock; second, by planting crops for
the purpose of turning them under
glowing under green crops is called
green manuring; third. by growing
clover and timothy. which are usually
left down for several years, during
which time their roots thoroughly pen
citrate the soil. Old roots decay and
new roots grow. After the sod is
plowed up considerable vegetable mat
ter is turned under. With the mass of
roots in the soil, this adds consider
able humus. The advantage from the
cultivation of clovers and alfalfa is
found in the fact that they are deep
rooted plants, and when their roots
decay they have channels deep into
the earth, thus aiding in the absorb
ton Of rains and letting in air to
sweeten the soil.
Probably the most rapid way to
build up a wornout soil when barn
yard manure is not plentiful is to
give 1t a course of treatment such as
described, then grow only forage
crops. buy grain to feed with them
and return all the manure thus pro-
duced to the land. Dairy farming
permits such a system to be followed,
and no other type of farming builds
up land so quickly.
Professor W. j. Spi!lman, agricul-
turist, in charge of farm management
Investigations, United States bureau
Of plant industry, says another type
that gives quick results is to grow a
succession of pasture crops for hogs,
keep the hogs on these pastures and
feed them fourth to hale ration Of
grain. In middle ATTITUDES the fol-
lowing system is adapted to this type
Of farming: Grow corn enough for the
pigs ON part of the farm, sowing
either cowpeas or crimson clover or
rye In the corn yearly to keep up fer
tility. The two latter crops furnish
winter pasture for the pigs. On the
remainder of the farm run the fol-
lowing three year rotation: Sow oats
in early spring, follow by rye sown
early in August, follow this by sor-
ghum the following spring, in Sep
TENDER or October SOW rye again after
the sorghum, late the next spring SOW
either sorghum or cowpeas and begin
over again with oats the succeeding
spring
