you're not likely to do it. Get ready

Uncle Billy meekly obeyed. He sat
patiently through the lecture, which
was both interesting and profitable
At the close of his discourse the re
turned missionary said:
II will wait few minutes now for
the purpose of answering any Ques-
tons that interested persons in the
audience may wish to ask"
For half minute nobody spoke.
Then, to the horror of Aunt Ann and
the establishment of the congregation.
Uncle Billy leaned forward and asked:

for series Of years. And many an
other Illinois farm has been practical
ly ruined in the same time, though
perhaps not many by the socalled
farming of one person.
The owner can never build up"
such land. The utmost he can do is
to live. He has not even dollar per
acre to invest in improvement. Money
for such wise investment must come
from outside the farm.
It takes a little longer to ruin the
richer land Of central Illinois. but it
can be done just as certainly, as is
shown by the 80 years of continuous
corn growing on one Of the university
plots at Urbana.
Now every intelligent farmer is be-
ginning to see that without some
proper care and repair his soil will
not maintain itself forever, any more
than would his buildings.
Nothing more significant to Ameri-
can agriculture has ever been uttered
than the two sides of the same prop
osition persistently taught by DR..
Cyril G. Hopkins, the University Of
Illinois soil expert. as follows:
ITO permanently maintain profit
able systems of agriculture is our
most important material problem. not
only in Illinois but in the United
States.
of we shall succeed in Illinois in
discovering and adopting into general
agricultural practice systems of farm
ing that will restore our soils to their
virgin fertility and permanently main
tain high productive capacity for
these Illinois lands, it will be the first
time for this to be accomplished any
where in the world over such an
area"
This is getting down to bedrock in
agriculture. The most far-sighted and
unselfish farmers are Just beginning
to comprehend the literal meaning Of
these facts and the advisahility of act
ing upon them before it is too late.
