SAVING FERTILITY

No country can become richer than the soils that produce its wealth. Per manent prosperity and normal growth ot the country must depend upon the fertility of the soil and the manner In which the products from the soil are utilized.
 Permanent agriculture is the best source of wealth. It affords food. clothing and shelter for the people and Is the surest and most desirable occupation to produce wealth and af- ford happiness.
 But a large yield in crops, live stock, fruits and truck does not mean prosperity. People who produce large crops may not save fertility nor make profit upon their investments. This kind of agriculture does not bring permanent prosperity because of waste and uneconomic methods of farming.
 Soils that produce large crops must finally be restored. If crops are sold and the fertility constituents removed they are being impoverished. Perma- nent agriculture requires that the fer tility be restored or that the plant food be conserved.
 The system of farming that sells the crops wastes fertility. In such a system the value of the plant food constituents sold with the crops must be considered, for sooner or later these must be bought in commercial fertilizers or the soil will be depleted.
 General farming with livestock is the safest and most economical sys- tenn of farming. In this way, the soil produces the feeds for livestock and the manure from the animals is re- turned to the soil, leaving the ami mals or animal products with very lit tie loss of fertility constituents for profit. As an example given by Prof. Eckles, wheat at $1 a bushel is worth $33.32 per ton while it removes with it fertility worth $9.59; corn at 60 cents bushel is worth $21.40 ton, while it removes fertility worth $8.60 A ton of milk at $1.50 per hundred pounds is worth $30 and contains but $256 worth of fertility. A ton of butter is worth $500 and carries but 50 cents worth of soil fertility.
 This illustrates the advantages in raising animals and it shows the in fuence of such methods of farm man. agement upon the country. The peo- pie engaged in dairying are conserv- ing their fertility and preparing for larger crops and better profits by marketing finished products.-Farm and Ranch.
