LEGUME CROPS AND THE NITRO
GEN SUPPLY.

LEGUME CROPS AND THE NITRO
GEN SUPPLY.
There can be no doubt that the greatest
deficiency of Kentucky soils is nitrogen.
deficiency OF one element of plant
food limits crop production, although all
the other elements might be present in
abundance. Hence the greatest single
factor in restoring our soils TO fertility
is increasing the nitrogen supply. No one
not even the fertilizer manufG 1turer,
now contends that nitrogen can be proba
bly, bought in commercial fertilizers in
quantities required by crops. There Is ON
ly one source from which nitrogen may
be economically obtained In sufficient
quantities, and that Is from the air by
the growing of the legumes crops (clo-
vers, COW peas, etc) Enough legumes
must be grown In the rotation TO supply
nitrogen in the soil for all the crops
that cannot obtain 1t from the air, (slch
as corn, wheat. etc.), and to replace that
which, is constantly being lost In the
drainage waters The nitrogen supply
cannot be kept up by merely growing
legumes In the rotation and harvesting
them and not returning the manure in

ADMIRATION FOR TEDDY.

The voluntary and immediate action OF
Col. Roosevelt in giving up to Mr.. Taft
the eight MISUNDERSTANDING from Massa-
chusetts instructed for himself, because
of Mr.. Taft's majority in the preference
vote, has excited the admiration and APP
approval of newspapers and individuals tn
country over, regardless of political af-
filiations. Taking as it was of his own
volition and without consultation with
his political advisors the action of Col.
Roosevelt has with few exceptions re-
ceived the commendation of newspapers
Of every political complexion, and among
them several of the strongest Administra
tion organs in the country.
The New York Times, than which there
is no stronger supporter of Mr.. Taft,
comments editorially on the Colonels ac-
tion as follows:
'Jn surrendering to President Taft the
eight delegates at large from Massachu-
sets who We're elected as pledged 20
vote for himself, Mr.. Roosevelt has done
a manly and honorable thing. 1t is an
act that will have an instant response
of praise and approval for him the coun
try over.
1.-The voters declared preference for
Mr.. Taft, and that, under the law, is
the exact equivalent of resolutions of
instruction in State convention. 1t
should be binding upon the delegates az
large. This Mr.. Roosevelt frankly and
with most commendable candor acknowl-
edges. and he will urge and continue to
urge the eight delegates at large to sup
port Mr.. Taft at Chicago"
From the Hartford Courant. bitter
anti-Eoosevelt newspaper comes the fol-
lowing editorial paragraph
Theodore Roosevelt has released the
eight MISUNDERSTANDING from their Pied
ses TO vote for him and requested them
to vote at Chicago for William II. Taft
as being the choice of the preference
primary. 1t is a very sportsmanlike ac- !
ton"
The Detroit News places the relinqush |
ment of his delegates by Col. Roose- !
welt as an event of equal importance |
with his success in the Bay State. The |
News comments in this wise:
This voluntary REIMBURSEMENT of sup |
port is easily the big event of the con- |
test. il is concrete demonstration Of |
1.-The square deal" which President Taft |
has so recently charged Roosevelt with |
repudiating. 1t makes more evident than |
ever before the fact that Mr. Roose-
Welt is fighting for principles more than
votes for office. 1t is a singing rebuke

who have GRABBED off votes wherever pos
sible and by any methods at hand. even

larly elected state Roosevelt delegates.

gumes in the rotation, and all manure
produced must be carefully saved and
returned TO the soil. The most practi-
cal way to handle the manure is to use
sufficient bedding to absorb the urine,

which is seeded about August 10Th along
with a little timothy. This gives good
crop of hay the next year and avoids
breaking up the regular rotation. We
believe that it pays to seed the clover
after the wheat is removed. although 1t
takes a little extra labor, as the stand
is much surer than when seeding with
the wheat in the spring. The manure pro-
duced is put on the clover sod.
On many soils legume crops cannot be
successfully grown until lime or lime
stone has been supplied to correct sour
ness. Also many Kentucky soils are to
deficient in phosphoric acid to produce
large crops of legumes. This strement
applies to nearly all our soils outside
the Blue Grass region.
