Speaking on this subject, DR.. Cyril
G. Hopkins says:
In live stock farming take a five
year rotation. including corn two years.
oats with clover and timothy seeding
the third year, and two years clover
and timothy. using one year for hay
and the other for pasture, assuming the
same yields as before. Shock One-half
the corn or put it in the sllo; husk
the other half and use the oats straw
for bedding.
The four crops will remove from the
soil about 1863 pounds Of nitrogen. and
the clover hay will contain about 100
pounds, which we assume was secured
from the air, making $50 pounds Of
nitrogen IN the total feed and bedding.
If one-half Of this is recovered in the
manure and returned to the land there
would be Il deficiency Of ia pounds.
But two-thirds of the nitrogen can be
recovered by feeding upon cement floors
and a liberal use of straw and shredded
fodder for bedding. thus reducing the
deficiency to forty three pounds
The pasturing may gain twelve
pounds of nitrogen. BY feeding more
or less upon the fields and by leaving
considerable clover in the pasture to
serve rs green manure. this small de
fciency can be replaced. but to main
tain or Increase the supply Of humus in
the soil is by no means an easy prob
lem, even with live stock farming.

Stock Farming Saves Soil.

1t is well known that live stock farm
ing is better for the land than grain
farming, and most farmers have sup
posed such a system would keep UP the
fertility of the soil Indefinitely, but
when the annual removal and supply of
plant food are put into actual figures
It u seen that this II not the case, *

If the apples are picked owe in time
1t will prevent many ound apples from
being started to rotting.
Apples should be kept covered so
they may not be dried out too quickly.
The person doing the sorting over of
the apples should be Il careful and re
liable one so that the fruit may not be
further bruised in the rehandling.
The old idea Of allowing apples to
be exposed to the air to make them
keep the longer is now regarded as er-
roneous 1t does indeed sometimes pre-
vent rotting, but it always helps
shriveling.
The only case in which apples should
be exposed to the air is when the Gel
lar is moist. In that case combining
the apples may increase loss from rot
ting.
Beets and turnips, if left to evapo-
rate moisture will soon become of no
value for culinary purposes.
All potatoes should be kept out of
light, and so far as possible, closed
from the free air. Light causes chem
zeal changes in potatoes that reduce
their value for culinary purposes.
Seed potatoes should be kept
throughout the winter in such a perfect
state that they will neither sprout nor
lose moisture.
When the seed potato is allowed to
send out Il sprout it takes out of the DO
tato a considerable amount of mois-
ture. in addition to the moisture that
Is lost in evaporation through the skin
Of the potato.
