lEGUMES ARE SOLUTION TO
KENTUCkY'S SOIL PROBLEMS

Lexington, Ky. More legume crops
to replace portion of the non-legume
crops on Kentucky farms is the one
big hope in economically building up
the States sails to a higher state OF
fertility, according to recommends
lions being made by soil and crops
specialists at the College of Agrricul-
ture. Legumes, such as clover add to
the fertility of the soil by drawing nj
trogen from the air while non-legume
crops such as timothy hay, wheat and
corn, draw on the soil for all their
plant food, according to the special
lists. The extensive use of non-legume
crops over a long period of years has
proved a heavy drain on the fertility
of Kentucky soils, they say.
In pointing out the Importance of
legumes in a system of crop improve
ment, the specialists are showing
farmers that more than two-thirds OF
the plant food contained in clover is
taken from the air. Every ton of this
crop takes only $500 worth of plant
food from the soil while the remaining
$500 worth, which it contains, is TAX
en- from the air.
On the other hand, bushel of corn
removes one pound Of nitrogen. nearly
one-fifth of a pound Of PHOSPHORUS
and one-fifth of pound Of potassium
from the soil. This amount of plant
food when purchased on the market as
commercial fertilizer would cost about
Is cents or about one-half the present
value of bushel Of corn.
A bushel Of wheat removes one and
one-half pounds Of nitrogen, about
one-fourth of a pound Of PHOSPHORUS
and one-fourth of a pound Of potas-
sum- This amount of plant food when
purchased as commercial fertilizer
would cost about IS cents or one-third
the present value of wheat.
A ton Of timothy hay remover "a
pounds Of nitrogen, three pounds of
and "a pounds of pootas-
stun worth 81 in the form Of CONNER
cial fertilizer or about one-htird the
market value of hay.

where Morris lived at that time,
stands in one OF the few remaining
blocks in downtown New York - old
Chelsea village where there are
any grounds where trees can find
room to stand. and lovers OF American
tradition and American literature
have hoped that those two trees would
live undlsturbed for many years. Just
last year, however, the trees died, and
II was decided het other day to have
hetm cut down. Martin L. Davey, for
mer Congressman from Ohio. who is

lives OF trees and adding beauty to the
country. was called in for exper opin-
ion. "A year ago tho trees could have
been saved" he said. But they were
neglected too long. Now they are
quite dead" The neglect Of these trees
has led groups Of men and owmen In
this city who are interested in pro
serving our historical treasures to
