the plan. Congress will not be asked

the various irrigation projects. The

ing the best possible collateral to those
investing in these securities.
Government figures bear out the
statement that there is enough good
land overlooked in Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin, Kansas, Nebraska, louisiana, Ken
lucky, Tennessee and Mississippi to
make an area as large rs the state of
Missouri, or more than 100000 acres,
while in the eastern, central and west
ern states there is more than as much
more, or about 1O0,0O0,o0o acres In all.
At a conservative estimate of $25 an
acre, the sale of this reclaimed land
would justify the expenditure of 3d.
50O,OOO,0O0, or $50 per cent more than
is required to drain it. This land would
support from 100000 to 100000 pop

several cars that will not only be
used on this end of the line, but be-

also. and the object of the cars is
to incre ase the Sunday excursion

Of the state. With the aid of these
cars better time can be made to
Pueblo, as these motors run much

1t has been said that he who would
produce a prize winning steer must
commence with it's grand dam, so he
who would produce a nigh yield of
corn must begin years before TO put
the soil into a high state Of fertility.
The most vital problems confront
ing agriculturalists today, is the main
tenance of soil fertility and at the
same time produce maximum yields.
No matter how carefully we may
test or grade the seed. no matter
with how much painstaking care the
planter may be manipulated, it all
comes to naught If the seed falls in
to a barren soil
The process of plant growth, the
taking of the good elements from the
soil and the storing them up in the
plant, can but deplete the soil supply
unless adequate return be made. For
a time, it was thought that the appli-
cation of commercial fertilizer would
solve the problem, but the hope was
futile, as the cost was too great and
the results not satisfactory. Some
thing more than the mere chemical
food elements in an available form
was necessary for the proper develop
ment of plant life.
The mechanical condition of the
soil needed improvement by the ad-
dition of humus, decayed vegetable
matter, which is found in such abund-
ance in virgin soils, soils which will
produce such vigorous growth of vege-
tation with so little effort on the part
of the husbandman.
The feeding of the grain to the live
stock and a careful return of the
manure to the land was a long step
in the right direction. but even this
was inadequate. BY the introduction
OF a legunlinous crop, such as clover.
alfalfa. soy bean or cow peas. into the
rotation. nitrogen is gathered from
the air and stored up in the soil for
the use of subsequent crops.
As nitrogen is the most expensive
Of all the food elements. the getting
of supply OF this manure materially
lessons the cost of the commercial
tertilizers.;he numeral elements. phos-

to livestock with the return of the
manure to the soil; the introduction
of a legume into the rotation: and a
iudicious use of a fertilizer contain
ing the needed amounts of phosphorie
acid and potash.
Perhaps at no time in the history
OF Eastern Indiana has there been so
much breaking done for the spring
planting at this time OF the year.
The practice Of fall or winter blowing
has much to commend it, on land that
is comparatively level or is not of too
stiff clay. A great many injurious
insects, by being routed out of their
winter quarters and exposed to the
freezing, may be destroyed. Also,
when heavy stubble or coating of
straw or manure is turned under. the
action of the elements hasten the de-
cay and restore the connection be-
tween the furrow-slice and sub-soil
SO that the capillary movement of the
moisture stored in the sub-stratas
may resume its normal action.
In case of spring blowing, especial
ly where the land has been pasture
and likely to break up cloddy or where
coat of subtle. straw or manure is
being plowed under. the disc harrow
should be used. cross disc if neces-
sary, before the pillow. This serves
to break the surface. thus preventing
an undue evaporation of moisture
which may be sorely needed later in
the season This discing also mixes
the stubble, straw etc. with soil.
Fastening its decay. and serves to re.
store the capillary connection
permitting the soil moisture TO come
up to aid the young plant in case OF
drouth- Then, too the discing OF the
surface before blowing aids in the
complete pulverization of the furrow-
slice. In the case of cloddy ground,
no tool will reach to the depth OF
the furrow-slice and pulverize the
soil to the degree which il necessary

for the rapid capillary movement of
the soil moisture.
After the blowing the soil should
be reduced to very fine state OF
filth. for by this process we Hberate
the stored up plant food SO that the
young plant may avail itself of 1t
readily. which condition will also per-
nit the warmth from the sun and the
air to penetrate the upper surface.
and this together with the moisture
from below make perfect conditions
for the generation of our carefully
tested and graded seed corn.
While all of this preparation Of the
seed bed has been planning for a dry
season. it is presupposed that proper
natural Or tile drainage has been pre-
pared to Immediately remove the ex-
cess moisture during the wet sea-
