of nitrogen is may be seen from the TACT that
a 1OO-bushel crop of corn taxes from the SOIL
almost 100 pounds of nitrogen In the corn anu
about 48 pounds in the stalks. Rich, Well+Dal.
anced land in the corn belt contains about
5000 pounds of nitrogen. Therefore, II the
process Of subtraction Of nitrogen goes on
year after year with never an addition II can
be seen clearly that the farmer finances can
not multiply. Rotation plans for grain farm
ers always should include a crop OF legumes.
Wheat, corn, oats and clover is a satisfactory
rotation. also wheat, corn and COW peas; also
cotton, corn and oats and COW peas. TIL tirst
of these rotations should include a catch crop
of clover seeded the first year and ploWed un-
der for corn as late as practicable the second
wear. The other two should include eaten
crops of legumes whenever possible. Legumes
when plowed under perform valuable services
besides supplying the soil with nitrogent-as
they decay they supply organic matter 10 the
soil which helps other elements of plant 1000
to free themselves from the earth and into the
farmers bank account.
Now that the question Of nitrogen has been
outlined, suppose we turn to the problem OF
phosphorus, the only element Of plant FOOD we
ever shall have to buy. AS to the Importance
Of the use Of phosphorus upon the common
soils Of the United States, DR.. Hopkins has
this to say:
phosphorus is the key to permanent az
~riculture on these lands. To maintain or In
crease the amount of phosphorus In the SOIL
makes possible the growth Of clover or other
legumes and the consequent addition OF nitro
gen from the inexhaustible supply in the air;
and with the addition Of d~ecaying organic mat
ter in the residues Of clover and other crops
and in manure, made in large part from clover
hay and pasture, and from the larger crops o.
corn and other grains which clover helps tc
produce comes the possibility OF Hberatine
from the immense supplies in the soil sufficient

let us consider a few fundamentals OF crop
growing.
First, there are six positive, absolutely es-
sential factors. They are: C) the seed'
(2) the plant home, 10y the food Of which the
plant is made, az moisture, 90 heat, TO- llghL
Now. except in the case of the seed and plant
food these factors are largely beyond the farm
er's control. Dame Nature can, however, De
trusted to attend to them satisfactorily. How,
then, has the farmer made use OF his ability TO
control the two factors? BY exercising 1uds-
ment ana care in the selection OF seed and by
ignoring the matter of plant food entirely. me
result? When the land was worn out and had
no plant food to give the good seed the agricul-
tl,rist arose irately In farmers institute ana
told what he thought of the seed seller. The
+rouble all the time was not with the seed put
with the soil, which had had the elements OF
plant food removed in previous crops, and as
a consequence could not respond to the call OF
the seed.
What are these elements? There are ten
IN the list, but eight are provided abundantly.
Three-oxygen, hydrogen and c~arbon-come
directly from the air and water. Most nor
mai soils contain enough potassium, magne-
stun. iron, calcium and sulphur, although some
times the first must be supplied. me propiem

NOW nitrogen is as easy to catch as the
measles II one knows how. The air contains

A question that has been given much at

tion. Undoubtedly it is absolutely essential
for successful grain farming but u IS nor
the universal panacea some would nave US pc

have declared that fertilization Is unnecessary
that crop rotation will keep the soils 10 per

elements but because they throw off poisonous

alike, we are all vitality concerned in this
problem Of maintaining and increasing the fer
