Cultivated Crops.

Crops such as corn, potatoes, man
gels and all root crops that are plant
ed in rows and cultivated during their

These crops have always been regard
ed as beneficial to soil fertility, but

growth of cultivated crops depletes
the soil more rapidly than does the
growing of grain continuously.
