Growing sugarbeets is in the end no more injurious to the soil tt.a,a the growing of most of our com- mon crops, writes Prof. W. A. Henn ry. Any erop grown takes fertility from the soil, but if the beet leaves' aro fed on the farm, and the tops out off the beets are likewise fecl, 430 well aS the culls, and if finally tee pulp* residue is 'brought hack from the faCtory and fed on tbe form, then very Mlle fertility indeed is lost. Beet 'growing is 'not one-fifth as nard on the land nnder such conditiens as the' growing and selling hay or straw, so often practised by fanners. The beet root takes a good deal of water from the soil, and this per- haps shOwS on the next crop unfav- orably. • Beets should always be grown in rotation. In Europe the farmers of' Germany, France Belgium and in other countries have in some regions been growing beets successful- ly and profitably for the last gener- ation. Dining the last ten years the business has increased enorinouSly, .The beet snowing regions of the old World *have been the most prosperous of any la Europe, and the farmers 211e2e4 rel;;;;:, • • .oe o — HE NEEDED EXERCISE.
