CURIOUS eeneflts OF prouaht.

Drought is dreaded by farmers and
gardeners because 1t Injuries grass and
grain. fruits and flowers. but scientific
observers testify that it brings as q
compensation subtle gifts which enrich
the soil and increase future crops. Ma
ture has stored in the earth a rich sup
ply OF phosphates. silicates. carbonates
and other chemical salts essential to
vegetable life. Those on the surface OF
of the ground are soon exhausted, and
the large supply ut greater depths is
often unreached by subsoil blowing.
But n drought is natures subsoil pillow
to bring up the rich nutriment below
When the surface is parched the sun
draws moisture from the deeper soil
and this moisture brings with it in so
luton salts OF lime and magnesia, of
potash and soda. The moisture evap-
crates. but leaves the salts for the use
OF plants and grain. Drought. there
fore, does double work. 1t parches
the surface and lessons the present
crop. II forces up rich nutriment from
the deeper soil and enlarges future
crops.-Harper's Weekly.
