More About Soil Humus

More About Soil HumuS
We all know that organic matter is
very important in the handling of
any soil. Yet, l doubt if any of US
realizes how important it really is. \
few agricultural experts have gone
"All Out" for what they call organic
farming. Some of these men claim
that if plenty of humus is used all
soil troubles will be cured; and no
chemical fertilizers will be needed.
Sir Albert Howard, an English
farming authority, has written a
book called An Agricultural Testa-
ment." The whole theme Of this book
is that humus will replace all other
fertilizers. and will cure all soil ills.
The book is based on experiences and
research in England and in India.
The author quotes a lot Of expert
mental results to support his
theories. He believes that if all the
excess vegetable matter is carefully
composted with animal wastes and
returned to the soil, no other ferti-
lizers are necessary.
Personally, think that these
people are light-to a certain extent,
Building up the humus content will
work wonders for almost any soil.
But cannot see how phosphorus
content of soil lacking in that ele-
ment will be helped by the addition Of
organic matter grown on the same
soil We could save what little phos-
phorus is there. but couldn't possibly
increase it. We need more humuS and
chemical fertilizers too.
So maybe we could say that humus
is not a cure-all, but that it will help
cure almost all soil troubles. If a
soil is drQughty, more organic matter
will help hold rainfall, preveting run
off and helping prevent washing. If
the soil is too wet, the addition Of
organic matter will help that too, by
making it looser, more friable and
better ventilated.
A couple Of weeks ago d nearby
farmer and l went over field that
had all the indications Of poor drain
age. It was d nice field almost flat,
The surface looked pretty good, vet
crops had been acting just as they do
on poorly drained soils. At first we
both thought that some sort Of drain
age was needed Then we made a
number of boIings with soil auger.
The topsoil was thin, with little
humus (this field was quite a dis
tance from the barn), The subsoil
was heavy, but none of the borings
showed any water, and there had
been plenty Of rains. So DRAINAGE
would not have helped this field. It
showed a lot Of the symptoms Of poor
drainage because the soil had become
heavy and compact due too little
humus.
Our land needs a lot Of things;
lime, commercial fertilizers, drainage,
erosion control. Humus will work
along with all these to put and keep
the soil in top shape.
And right now is the time to do
something about it, Broadcast 20
pounds to the acre Of domestic rye
grass seed immediately after the last
cultivation on corn ground. The rye
grass will protect the surface over
winter Its top growth and fine,
fibrous root system will add to the
soil humus. 1t will take up some Of
the fertility not used by the corn crop
and save it, in easily available form,
for the next crop.
