II will readily be understood that
the various agencies concerned in the
formation of the soil do not act sep

the debris, depositing II at various
distances from its source.
This study Of the formation Of the

farmer can do to prevent he ex-

The first is to so treat the soil az

process of converting the plant food
into available forms by means of good
tillage.
The second is to return to the soil

that removed by the crop.

Vegetation begins with the very
simplest forms of plants, such as lich-
ems and MOSES. and is, of course, very
scanty at first These plants on dy-
ing become a part of the soil, all Of
the plant nutrients used by them be-
Ing thus returned.
Food that has once been used by
plants Is very readily made available
to succeeding crops through the pro-
cess Of decay. The soil Is now able
to produce a larger crop, as 1t con-
tains the plant food in the previous
growth in addition to that added
through the agencies detailed above.
In this way the growth gradually be-
comes more abundant. The plants up
on decaying give rise to humus, and
this increases the fertility of the land
both by being a source Of plant food
and by increasing the water-retaining
power. Humus Is a very important
factor in fertility. During the de-
