am making a sort Of average.
All plants get all their carbon from
the air.
All plants get all their potash from
the soil.
All plants get all their phosphoric
acid from the soil.
Most plants get all their nitrogen
from the soil. A few plants take
nitrogen from the air not only for
their crop of grain, but also store up
a surplus in little nodules on their
roots. Corn, oats, wheat, flax, pota-
toes, indeed all crops except the
clovers, peas, vetches and beans get
all their nitrogen from the soil.
Peas, vetches beans and all sorts of
clover including of course the alfalfa,
seem to use soil nitrogen to start
with, but afterward take from the air
not only what they need for stalk
and seed, but also store up a sur
plus in little nodules on their roots.
The amount Of nitrogen in the nod
uies varies of course In different
soils, but government reports estimate
an average of 1873 pounds to the acre,
which at IT cents per pound comes to
S22.95.
Flax and peas have each much nj
trogen but fax gets its nitrogen
wholly from the soil; while peas get
their nitrogen mainly from the air;
not only what they need for their
growth, but storing up surplus OF
S22. 90 worth of nitrogen in their root
nodules, and another SO worth in
their vinss and $15 to $45 worth In
the grain of the pea crop.
Oats have much nitrogen, all from
the soil. Oats, timothy, potatoes
and wheat impoverish the soil. On
the other hand peas and clover enrich

do not profess to know more than the
professors of agriculture-but from
my own experience when | came to
the farm from the city l know just
how ignorant man can be-and can
make matters plain.
TILTH VS.. PLANT FOOD.
At the very beginning let us get 1t
clear in our minds that plants need
to be fed just as animals do. Also
remember that along with food ami
mails need care.
Just so the soil must be in condi-
tion-loose, mellow, moist but not
wet, etc. This is filth and is wholly
different from plant food correspon-
ding to care of stock as distinguish
ed from feed.
Now manure helps to get ground in
good filth. Some of my hundred
acres is very rich but got no crops
at all till drained it. Then by put
ting on peat got marvellous results
IL tons of potatoes to the acre. The
Department of Agriculture at Wash
ington and also professors at our
State College wrote me that peat had
little plant food and would probably
Of ho halIlinr ont tho
meadow. Doubtless they were right
if one were thinking only of plant
food. But my heavy clay was already
wonderfully rich in plant food but
was in poor filth. 1t could not be
worked into shape; would be wet one
day and a few days later would be
dry and hard. Any old thing would
help it-sand, saw dust, hay, peat,
anything to make it loose and able to
retain moisture.
All this had nothing at all to do
with plant food directly. What l
wanted was something to put the clay
in good filth. Peat and manure
seemed equally ROOu, IOr GIlou
them in strips side by side and could
see no difference.
If the soil had been in good filth
but poor in plant food, the peat
would have done little good while the
barnyard manure would have done
much good. With our long, dry
summers we are really in a semi arid
region so far as farm crops are con-
cerned; even though it does rain all
winter.
Granting then that your land is
