knowledge That Is Necessary For In
telIigent Farming.
1t is surprising how seldom the aver
age landowner stops to question or
show the slightest curiosity as to what
caused certain crops to achieve success
and what helped others to entire fail
ure, writes Edward II. Parkinson in
the New York Evening Post. A little
administrative machinery, a small out
lay on proper garden soil or q little
irrigation for a parched plain will
sometimes turn failure on the land into
triumph for us and solve the problem
quite satisfactorily.
But there is Il lack of the most ele-
mentary knowledge-or shall we call
it interest?-as to definite agricultural
sections of this country. as is evil
Gcnced by our reputation abroad for
SEEING ~extravagant, h%aphazard and care,
Ivss farmers. Now, to the unobserving
The difference in soils is merely Il diff
ference in color. One is IL deep choco-
late brown. another is u light brown
or Il third is of q yellowish texture. In
reality these differences in color are
plain indications to the discerning that
certain components of a soil predomi-
nate. For illustration, Il freshly turn
ed furrow in a soil where clay pre-
dominates will be grayish, while if it
were what is known as Il loamy soil
it would have the color of light choco-
late.
Thus the leading characteristics OF
soils should of necessity be studied, for
only by understanding something of
the physical composition of soil in our
gardens is it possible to apply fer
tilizer ~intelligcntly and so avoid con-
fusion and hopeless gucsswork.
All varieties of soil may be divided
into W. great classes. according to
the method of their formation-"seden-
tary' and transported" Sedentary
soils are those formed by the weather
ing of rocks in the places where the
soil is found or from the accumulation
OF organic matter, as, for instance, in
marshes. Transported soils are made
up Of materials which have been moved
by some agency, such as water. ice or
wind, to the place they now occupy.
To know just how to treat these
soils one must be familiar with the
components of so~ils-namcly, sand, silt,
clay and humuS-and the combinations
in which they are usually found.

Americans, accustomed to the hustle
and hustle of our newspapers that are
enterprising to 4 marvellous extent,
would be amazed if not e~yasperated
with the papers OF India. One Of these
sheets recently published this explana-
ton:
"Ihis is only the beginning OF u

matter was required to fill it up, and,
thinking we mad sufficient, we did not
exert ourselves much to get any more.
We therefore beg that our readers will
excuse US for the space left blank and
promise to do better and get more in
the future"
How many subscribers would that
paper have in this country? Still more
curious was the announcement Of a
paper that came out with two columns
blank, the editor having the cheek to
say that a large quantity Of exceeding
~ interesting matter has been left out
for want OF space.
When the average East Indian editor
wants a holiday he suspends publica-
ton until it is convenient to resume
and, taking the public into his conf
