conservation, excepting water, power
and coal, which at that time did not
figure so prominently in the industrial
progress of the country as today. OF
late years Wiley has been too busy
chasing adulterators of food and the
dopers of drugs given to babies and
the sick. to even think of any phase of
conservation excepting public health.
and this makes his remarks of eighteen
years ago all the more significant to-
day. A few paragraphs of what he
said will give an idea of the doctors
conception of conservation at that time.
He said:
VAST WASTE OF PLANT FOOD
I'm this country, owing to the great
stores of wealth which the past had
accumulated in the soil, it is only
within recent years that the question
of the supply of plant food has as
sumed any practical Importance.
LAS long as there were virgin fields
at the disposal of the agricultural
rapist, the conservation and restora-
tion of exhausted fields was of little
consequence. Not only have these
stores of plant food been utilized. but,
much to the discredit of the American
farmer, they have been wasted. The
mark of good agriculture is to see fields
yielding annually good returns and in
creasing, or at least not lessening in
fertility. This being true, the history
of American agriculture to within
few years must be the history of bad
farming, for everywhere we have seen
fertile fields losing their fertility and
farms once productive abandoned.
"rhe waste to which 1 desire to call
your attention is not that which nor
mally takes place in the production of
O. crop, but that which is incidental to
the cultivation of the soil and to a
certain extent unavoidable. / refer to
the denudation of fields by water and
to the removal OF soluble plant food by
the percolation of water through the
soil. The losses due to the denudation
of fields are purely of a mechanical
character.
GREAT VALUE OF FORESTS
"The natural forest, or the natural
covering of grass over an area of SOIL,
prevents, to a large extent, the denu-
dation due to heavy downpours OF rain.
The removal of the forest and the de-
struction of the grass by cultivation,
leave the soil in a condition in which
1t is unable to resist the action of flow
ing surface water. more striking
lesson may be seen in the hill regions
bordering both banks of the Ohio river
Hundreds of fields once covered
with sturdy forests of oak, maple and
crops of maize, tobacco and wheat
may now be seen furrowed with gullies,
as with the wrinkles of age, and aban-
doned to brush and briers. The same
is doubtless true of other hill regions,
but l speak the more advisedly OF
those which have come under my per-
sonal observation. Great, however, as
the mechanical loss of plant food is,
it is by no means as dangerous as the
loss of the soluble materials caused by
the percolation of water through the
soil.
"From the foregoing summary of the
methods of waste of plant food, 1t has
been seen that in spite of all precau-
tions of the farmer and the chemist,
and in spite of the selective absorp-
ton of the soil, immense quantities OF
valuable plant food are carried into the
sea. where apparently they are lost to
agriculture forever"
