WHAT "cRop ROTATION DOES
One Of Simplest and Most PrsetIes,
Ways by Which Income OF Farm
May Be Increased.

The rotation OF crops ia one OF the
simplest and most practical ways by
which the income OF the farm may be
increased without greatly adding to
the cost CT operation.
The rotation of crops is the alterna.
ton OF the three general classes OF
farm crops; namely, grain crops
grass crops and cultivated crops, 50
that a crop from each OF the three
classes will appear on each field at
least once during each cycle of the
rotation.
Under grain crops" such crops as
wheat, barley, fax and millet may be
Chased, in their relation TO the soil.
Millet, though grown for hay. has
practically the same effect on the soil
as a grain crop. These crops deplete
the soil OF vegetable matter, allow
weeds to grow. and have n tendency
TO deplete the productive power OF the
land.
Under grass crops" may be in,lud-
ed timothy. bromus and the clovers.
Though tho clovers are not true
grasses, they have heavy root sys-
tens, and add vegetable matter to tho
soil. The clovers also add nitrogen
to the SOIL but their chief value in a
rotation seems TO be due TO the fact
that their heavy rootsystems Mi the
soil with vegetable matter, thus maxi
ing II more hospitable to plants.
Under cultivated crops may be
placed corn, potatoes and root crops.
Owing to their cultivation during
growth. these crops have n cleaning
effect on the soil. They are, however.
exhaustive OF soil fertility, because the
constant cultivation encourages tho
liberation OF large quantities of plant
food. These crops leave the soil in
good condition for succeeding grain
crops.

trimming reached from TO 80 per

very marked. In one instance reach
IS per cent.
The plants were grown under Or
binary field culture and they were
started in the green house April /.
planted in the field June l and head
ed back July "a. August s and Sep
TENDER s.
At each trimming the leading
branches were shortened about six
inches and most OF the side shoots
below the first clusters were removed,
the others being shortened, and the
sunlight was thus freely admitted.
Training tomatoes on wires to run
from five TO ten feet high is becom-
ing a common practice. This method
increases the yield as the sunlight
reaches all OF the fruit and makes
picking much easier.

The effect will be that there will never be any accumulation of soot in the chimney, for the reason that the salt in the portion of mortar which is exposed will absorb the moisture on damp days, and the soot becom. ing damp, will fall down from the walls of the chimney, and may be easily removed.-The Commoner.
