BETTER SOIL TO BOOM
new ENGLAND FARMING
Farm Editor Urges Use of Meth
DDS to Restore Fertility.

''New England farmers do not ap-
preciate the agricultural possibilities
of their section of the country" writes
the editor of the New England Farms
and the Connecticut Farmer in the
last issue. Green manures. the use
of lime. the growing of legumes and
the raising of live stock. supplemented
with the judicious use of plant food.
will accomplish wonders I'm restoring
soil fertility. The excellent markets
make up for the roughness of the land
in some regions.
In the three southern New England
states 90 per cent of the population
live in towns of $500 or over The
three states do not produce 80 per cent
of the foodstuffs they consume The
very fact that the New England states
are industrial states is Of advantage
to the agricultural interests. especially
as regards markets
With land values low and the farms
in general productive and capable of
becoming much more productive. with
plenty of moisture. seasons long
enough to mature crops when properly
nourished and when proper varieties
are chosen, the farmers of New Eng
land can raise good crops and mar
ket them at a short distance from
their farms. With q system of agri
culture established that will provide
for the building up Of the fertility Of
the soil through a good system of ro-
tation that includes a cash crop and
the raising of crops that are fed on the
farms through live stock. the future
Of New England farming will rival
that of New England's industrial prog

LESS POTASH? YES!
LESS FERTILIZER? NO!
PhOSphOriC Acid and Nitrogen
LlbGratO Some Potash.

Farming with little potash, the ne
cessity that has been the basis for so
much discussion in newspapers and
farm papers throughout the country,
may be likened to the story OF the
Irishman who appealed to HIS employer
regarding credit to a customer.
"Have you given him the goodsT"
asked the proprietor. Upon receiving
the answer that the goods had been de-
livered, the proprietor decided that tho
customer should have the credit. Until
the matter of producing American pot
ash is worked out on a commercial
basis, it seems to be necessary to farm
with at least a limited amount Of pot
ash.
That fertilizers containing liberal
amounts Of phosphoric acid and nitro
gen will assist in liberating and max
ing available as plant food some Of
the potash in the soil that is otherwise
unavailable for plants, is shown by
number of experiments that have been
conducted during recent years Pro
fessor Henry G.. Bell Agronomist Of
the Soil Improvement Committee of
the Natiocal Fertilizer association, and
one of the leading soil specialists In
the country. advises the use of liberal
amounts Of fertilizers rich in phos-
phoric acid and nitrogen as the best
thing that can be done in the coming
season. He also urges that more at
tention be given by New England
farmers to the growing of cover crops
to supply numus to the soil. and adj
vises the more general attention to
livestock farming and dairying In order
to build up the soils of New England
and to establish the agriculture on
permanent basis.
