The Supply Of Organic Matter in
the Soil.

The most fundamental cause
Of decreased soil productiveness
in Missouri is the gradual derle.
ton of the organic matter. a
good supply of organic matter in
Il soil is necessary, first, to keep
the soil loose and friable, second,
to maintain the supply of nitro.
gen, and third, to make available
the mineral plant foods through
its decay. Commercial fertiliz-
ers will, for a time, bring re-
munerative results on worn land
even when the organic matter of
the soil is not maintained, but
the continued profitable use of
commercial fertilizers on most
soils is dependent upon the main.
tenance of the supply OF organic
matter.
The growing of grain crops is
the most important cause of the
depleted supply of organic mat
ter in our soils. Organic matter
cannot be maintained under
grain farming, unless larger
amounts of manure or added to
the soil than can be made .,y
fe ding the grain crops. Where
a man cannot buy manure, as 10
usually the case. it is necessary
to alternate grain crops with or.
ganic matter building crops,
such as clover and cowpeas, eth
er feeding all of these back or
turning them under.
Thus far, We have lived largely
upon the virgin fertility of our
soils. From this time forth, we
must learn to increase soil Dro.
ductiveneSs and the maintaining
Of organic matter is the first
principle.

Berlin, May 26.-"The preservation
of peace Is my fervent desire, as 1t
was the chief aim and object of my 1
dear fathers life" declared King
George of England Saturday at
luncheon given by the British ambas-
sador to the members of royalty, who
were assembled here to attend the
wedding of Princess Victoria Louis.
Emperor Williams only daughter, and
Prince Ernest of Cumberland.
This is the first political note
sounded during the wedding ceremo-
niesnof Emperor Williams only daugh-
ter, for which three emperors and
many princes are gathered. The
kings words seem, according to the
opinion expressed in influential cir
cles, to epitomize the chief signif1-
canoe of the royal visits as demon
stration of the peaceful and friendly
relations among the three powerful
dynasties.
Love and diplomacy entered into
the marriage Saturday of Princess
Victoria Louise and Prince Ernst Au-
gust.
In briIliancy and in point Of the
great number of royal personages
present the nuptials far outshone any
similar event during the past decade
Kings, monarchs of lesser rank and
crown princes and princesses saw the
fair-haired, blue-eyed twenty-one-year-
old daughter of the German kaiser
become the wife of the strapping
twenty-six-year-old prince, and with
the ceremony was healed a breach
between the houses of Hohenzollern
and Guelph which had existed for
about half century. The ceremonies
really began Thursday, with the mar
riage ceremonies Saturday as the ell
max The civil ceremony took place
in the new marble palace at Potsdam;
the religious rites were celebrated in
this city.
Princess Victoria Louise had for her
attendants three of the prettiest girls
of her own caste In Europe. They
were Princess Mary, daughter of King
Charles of Roumania; Grand Duchess
Olga, eldest daughter of the czar OF
Russia, and Princess Yolanda Of Italy.
AS would be imagined, the wedding
gifts are almost fabulous. Their value
is estimated at close to $3,000.0e0.
The kaiser was so glad that the old
quarrel with the house of Guelph was
settled that, after the marriage had
been arranged, he promised to create
a new German state and make the
groom the ruler of it. Accordingly
Prince Ernst became the duke OF
Brunswick and the grand duke OF
Luneburg. This gives the young hus-
band responsible job and makes him
