They leave the soil in a much
better condition to hold the water
that comes. Plentiful applica-
tons of barnyard. manure add
humus to the soil and have much
the same effect as alfalfa and
clover.
Tile drainage is beneficial
where the soil is inclined to wash
away. At first though it might
seem an odd notion to put tile
where the water was already
breaking its neck to get away.
But the removal of water is only
one of the uses of tile. 1t loosens
the soil and increases its capac-
ity to hold water.
If the farm is generally billy
it should be used as a stock farm
rather than grain farm. The
stock farm will call for pastur-
age and probably alfalfa or Glow
er. 1t will produce the manure
necessary to furnish an abun-
dance of humus for the soil.
Steep hillsides will grow better
grass than any other kind of
crops, and a good sod will hold
the soil in case of heavy rains.
Soil washing, then, may be
controlled by deep plow-
ing, by terraces, by grass crops,
by tileing and by converting the
place into a stock farm. These
remedies will not wholly cure
the evil, but will prevent much
of the damage.
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1912-07-25
How Prevent
Soil Washing.

Our spring and early summer
rains came largely in heavy
downpours. The desired drizzle-
drazzle was displaced by gully
washers" which forcibly showed
the necessity of doing every
thing possible to prevent the
washing of the soils.
For this purpose deep tilling
is of much value. The soil that
can hold the most moisture will
be subject to the least soil wash
ing. The greater the depth of
blowing the more water the soil
can hold. Water will begin to
run off shallow plowed land long
before it runs off deep plowed
land. When water runs of
plowed land it is bound to carry
soil with it. The amount of
soil the water takes away will
depend on the volume of water
and the swiftness of the current.
On deep plowed land the amount
of water to flow off will be less
than on shallow plowed soil.
The velocity of the water is
mainly determined by the slope,
bat if the velocity can be reduced
by putting brush or straw in the
gullies the amount of soil car
ried off will be lessened.
In some cases terraces have
been made on side hills, their
sides sodded and only a moder-
ate slope left on the top of the
terrace. This method is practi-
cable only on small farms of
high-priced land.
Frequent crops of alfalfa or
clover are very beneficial in pre-
venting soil waste by washing.
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1912-07-25
The Location of
Improved Roads.

The present interest in good
roads has developed the question
of whether it is better to build
the new roads in all directions
from towns, or to first make good
roads between the commercial
centers. Ultimately it is hoped
that there will be good roads
everywhere, but what places
shall get them first is the ques-
ton.
The answer will probably be
that the roads will be improved
along the farms of the most pro-
gressive citizens. Wherever pri-
vate enterprise does not locate
road improvement the interests
of the public doubtless lie in the
connecting of the larger towns
by good roads. The ever in
creasing automobile traffic fol-
lows the good roads and the To-
calities that have them will get
the most favorable advertising
from that source.
The cross-state highway road
in Missouri, with its choice of
routes, will do much toward
bringing to favorable notice the
portions of the state through
which it passes. A large part,
if not all, of the expense of road
construction is returned to the
farms in the increased valuation
of the land. Should a farmer
desire loan on his place, he can
get a larger amount under more
favorable terms if his place joins
a good rock road. A macada-
mized road is not only luxury,
but il is a profitable investment.

Sweet Clover as
a Fertilizer.

Considerable mention is being
made of sweet clover as a forage
plant. 1t grows in great profu-
sion on the roadsides and hereto
fore has not been regarded as a
food plant. Now it is claimed
that when cut early it makes
FAIR hay. Perhaps cattle may
be taught to eat it, but they do
not take to it naturally.
But its use as a fertilizer bids
fair to be of much importance.
Along the hills of some of our
large rivers are yellow clay bluffs
(loess formation) which are us
ually so weatherworn that little
can be made to grow on them.
Analysis reveals the fact that
these clay bluffs are rich in the
necessary mineral matter for
plant growth, but that the hui
mus has been practically all
washed out of them.
The problem of making these
hills fertile is one of getting hui
mus into the soil. Heavy ma
nuring would accomplish the re-
suit, but the manure is not al
ways available in sufficient guam
titles. Not many plants can be
made to grow in these places,
but the despised sweet clover is
one of them.
Being a legume, the sweet
clover draws to itself large guam
titles of free nitrogen from the
air by the bacteria that grow on
its roots. Flowing under the
sweet clover gives the soil the
needed humus and supplies it
with an abundance of nitrogen.
So sweet clover has been found
to be a splendid plant to restore
The fertility of the wornout clay
hills.
Instead of blowing under the
sweet clover, it may be moved
and some possibly good hay Sc
cured. But in moving the clover
for hay it will take a longer time
TO build up the soil. The white
variety of sweet clover is recon-
nended for this purpose. Sweet
clover may be seeded any time
before the middle of August at
he rate of 18 pounds to the acre.
