Some Of the Objects of the Surveys.

of the United States and its Island
possessions should be mapped and
studied Soil Surveyor Smith went
into the matter somewhat in de-
tail, giving a short history Of the
Bureau of Soils and its work. He
compared the condition of many
soils all over the United States to
a sick person.
"Some of our soils are so cold
and wet that they are like a per-
son chilled by exposure and need
. drainage and deep blowing in or
der to Tighten and warm them up
! to a point where plants can grow
best. Again, if person be fed on
the best of bread alone for some
! time, they will become famished
and finally die, and thus it is if
one crop, such as cotton is grown
/ continuously year after year the
yield will dwindle to an unprOfta-
BILE stage. If a soil has all the
potash and phosphoric it needs
and lacks nitrogen crops will not
grow to the best advantage"
"From my talks with the farm
ers and the glowing reports they
give regarding the profitable s
of nitrate of soda and cotton seed
meal" continued Mr.. Smith, 81
am led to believe the soils in this
section lack nitrogen more than
any other element. Experiments
have shown that in a great major
ity of instances a complete fertili-
ger, like a mixed diet, is best for
land as well as people,"
"CrOwded court rooms and
other public places where many
people c~ongregate, are often insult
fciently ventilated, the air be-
comes foul and unless pure air is
supplied the people will die of
suffocation. With soils it is
nearly the same i; plants breathe
and purify the air, hence forests
are healthy, but the roots often
give out a poison that taints the
soil, rendering it unprOductive."
"For example," said the survey
or, tif corn be raised continuously
on most soils without intermiSsiOn,
the yield drops, but if oats be
raised it will be found that a sue
ceeding crop of corn is nearly as
large as ever. The first decrease
is not due to the soil being ex-
hausted, for there r no ex-
hausted soils, but owing to the
poisons secreted by the roots, just
as poisons are given out by the
lungs"
GAS a rule poisOns given out by
one crop do not affect Other crops,
hence the necessity Of rotation.
Now soils may become acid Or sour
and need lining. This is a soil
sickness comparable to acidity of
the blood in people, which gives
use to many painful diseases"
That there are no exhausted
soils" will be news to many of our
farmers, but Mr.. Smith went into
the subject at length, saying that
"there are Sick tired, disgust
cd and poisoned but no worn
OUT soils," and he promised to
give a fuller explanation to the
BEAOON's readers later on, it
being one of the purposes of the
bureau of soils to study all soil
conditions and enable the farmers
to apply the proper remedy. It
would seem that for a farmer to be
able to "doctor" his own farm is
as important for his success as far
a physician to diagnose the cas- of
a patient needing attic Ition.
To enable q farmer to study and
interpret his soils to better advan-
tage is n of the great aims of
the Bureau O. Soils.
