Improvements well made are most
economical.
The best preparation that can be
given to soil is highly desirable, but
it cannot compensate for cultivation.
There is no government limit on
agricultural lime now, and you ought
not TO limit it's use on land that
needs it.
Winter Vetch sown with oats early
in the spring makes a capital forage
crop, either for feeding green or made
into hay.
Generally speaking, sweet clover IS
successful crop. It grows readily
in hard situations and on relatively
poor soils.
IT has been found good practice to
sew soy beans with the corn for sill
age, providing the crop is cut with
corD harvester. Together they make
excellent feed.

Furthermore, the difficulties involved
in prescribing definite rules for deter
