HOW SOILS WEAR OUT
Plan to Keep Their.' Producing Magimwn Crops.
BYW.IL S
In emir study of "a practical soil
management program, we ` should
understand clearly that soils wear
out; by this, we mean that sons tend
to produce smaller and smaller crops
with the passing years, unless -they
are fertilized. Every farrier knows
that this isthe case,but many seem
determined to ignore this great law
of nature. Their reward is found in
cropsof low yield and high cost per
ton, bushel or bale.
Soils wear out because crops are
"not made of nothing." The fact is,
all of our crops remove definite quan-
tities of plant food from the soil, and
thus constantly reduce the store of
plant food elements in the soil, For
example A. 100 -bushel corn crop,
grain and stover, contains 148 pounds
of nitrogen, twenty-three pounds of
phosphorus and seventy-one pounds
of potassium. Likewise, a"fifty-bushel
wheat crop, grain and stover, con-
tains ninety-six pounds of nitrogen,
sixteen pounds of, phosphorus and
Ity-eight .pounds of potaseiuni. On
his basis we know that each year an
enormous amount of plant foot] is re-
oved from the soils of the country
by crops. Statistics worked out for
Iowa show that the total value of the
three principal elements, nitrogen,
phosphorus and potassium, removed
in one year by the nine leading crops
is in excess of $136,000,000. In this
case, the nitrogen constitutes about
eighty per cent. of the total value
of the plant food removed, while the
phosphorus and potassium .make up
abQnt ten per cent, each. These are
significant facts, They mean that
even if most of the nitrogen is re-
turned to the soil by the use of legu-
minous green manures, commercial
materials must be bought to supply
deficiencies in phosphorus and potas-
sium.
PLANT FOOD RETURNED.
The plant food in the crops which
are fed to live stock on the farm is
at least partially returned to the soil
in manure. But when due allowance
is made for this return, -from.an eeon-
amical standpoint, itis clear that the
net loss of fertility from our soils is
sufficiently great to demand serious
attention and to require definite ap-
plications of plant food in a well -
ordered system of soil management.
Again, soils wear out because they
constantly lose lime, and in time be-
come' sour or acid. Crop production
is generally not as satisfactory on
acid soils as on soils that contain a
goodly supply of lime. Legumes often
refuse to grow where the soil is acid.
Small grain crops and corn are not so
sensitive to acidity, but they may bet
indireetiy affected through a lessen -1
ing of the production of available
plant food.
The lime deficiency of soils brings;
our farmers face to face with one of
the big problems of the times. It is l
a big problem because vast sums of
money will be required for the pur-
chase of the needed limestone and
because a huge amount of heavy work
must be expended in transporting the'
limestone and distributing it on'the
land. But there is no practical way
of treating acid soils except by appli-
cations of lime materials; therefore,
farmers generally should resolve now,
without further delay, to deal with!

IAsFROVEs THE SOIL.'
Soils wear out ' because ecause 'they lose
organic matter' rapidly when they are
etiltiyated. The importance of organic
matter in soils is due to the fact,
that it contains much plant food, pro-
vides bacteria with conditions which
are necessary to make the plant food i
constituents available for else, . and
improves the physical condition of
the soil
In order to make and keep soils
highly produetive the organic matter
supply must be increased in, light col-
'ored, light textured soils and must be
maintained in darker colored types
and in the heavier types. All soils, 'bui•1

often' used as a supplement. This

TRANSPLANTING IS NECESSARY.A

Here, again, the real problem is one,
of expense, labor and the difficulty,!

growing successfully, the right green'
manure crop.
'Red clover grown in the rotetioni
often serves as a partial green ma-,
nure if the first crop is harvested and
the second crop plowed under. Better
still is the practice of removing only
the clover seed, plowing under; all
the rest of the crop. By this method
considerable nitrogen and much
organic matter may be added to the.
soil. When clover Is cut for hay and

is now used extensively as a green
manure crop.
On the live stock farm, the straw,'
stover and other residues ate gener-,
ally used for feed or bedding, and re.
turned to the soil in the manure. Onl
the grain farm the straw may be al -f
lowed to decompose partially before
application, and the cornstalks and
stubble may be plowed under, but in
both systems of farming these resi-'
