PLANNING A ROTATION
Make Provision for Permanent
Fertility Of Soil
Among Principles to es Kept II Mind
A. Cultivated Crops, leoumes,
oeaso and Provision for Feed
for Live Stock.

(By PROF. r. c. DONEGHUE. Profess
~ Of Farm Crops. North Dakota AZ
rScultural College.)
The planning Of = complete rota-
ton for any farm consists OF the
placing Of the crops which give the
greatest net income for the region In
question In such sequence In the
cropping system that the largest net
income for the farm will be obtained.
In order that the system may be per
maneut, It 10 necessary that some pro-
vision be made to maintain the fer
tility Of the soil for future produc-
ta1eness. In planning a rotation the
ALLOWING principles should be kept
4 mind. First, cultivated crops, like
corn and potatoes, clean the land OF
weeds, conserve soil water, and I'm
provo physical condition Of the soil.
SECOND, the legume crops. like clover
end alfalfa, keep down weeds, build
~ the organic matter In the soil and
add nitrogen to it. Third, grass crops,
llke timothy and bronze grass, kesp
down weeds and build up the organic
matter in tho soil, but add no i'm
portant element Of plant food. Fourth.
wheat and barley are relatively weak
seeding crops and should be placed
r the most favorable place IN the
rotation. They allow the accumaia-
t1ou Of certain weeds and allow the
soil 70 get into poor physical oondi-
don. Fifth, oats are ranker feeders
Dan either barley or wheat, and do
not demand as favorable a place IN
he rotation. They allow the accumu-
lation Of weeds and the development
Of poor physical conditions in tho
soil, Sixth, flax is weak feeder and
demands . good place In the rota-
ton. Az q rule 1t does best on sod
and when given this place in the 70
tation does not seem to injure the
land for small grain production. When
seeded on old land on which rota-
lion has not been followed, 1t fails to
Improve the land for wheat produc-
ton. It should not be seeded twice
ia succession on the same land, and
when 1t is grown a period OF seven
or eight years should intervene be-
