The Lexington progress. (Lexington, Tenn.) 1884-current, 1916-09-08

The Tennessean and American of
last Sunday had a fine and lengthy
editorial under the caption Cheap
or Fertilizers for the South" in
which attention was called to the
fact that Germany with seventy per
cent. and one fourth the acreage of
the United States applies seven
times as much fertilizer per acre as
is used in this country, and accounts
for it in the knowledge that Germa-
ny has plants for obtaining nitrogen
from the air, while the United
States is dependent upon Chill for
obtaining natural nitrates. This is
all true, but in the meantime, be-
fore the government locates the
great nitrate plant at the Muscle
Shoals, on the Tennessee river, it
will be well for Southern farmers to
remember that every field planted
in any Of the several legumes ans
wers. to some extent, the purpose
Of a nitrate factory, drawing that
fertilizer from the air and transfer
ring, it to the soil. The best and
newest advice to Southern farmers
is embraced in three charges, to-
wit: Plow deep, plant legumes, TO-
tate crops, and instead of letting
the lands leach out in the winter,
put. a cover crop on them.
