Caston Of Sitncce county was introduced, to address the meetins, on "Problems ;of. the2soi1.”' The soil is , the farmer's 'capital out of which, after procuring the•food fo'r-tbose,who till it, 'the far- mer provides wfiat„largely constitutes the bulk'of commerce in'Canada. ' He spoke: -.of the. formation” of soils and ' Speedilygot,'down.to practical talk On the various kinds of .soil :with, .which the farmers' have ;to 'deal. He painted. -out'-that `nitrogen was,; one •af the. necessary plant foods which , by con- tinuous• grain' growing"'•woul , soon become. exhausted and 'our neje was'` to hold what we could and yet add to, nature's store. 'The problem' was then to assist nature's .'laboratory in returning and adding; to the natural^ fertility of the soil.°, He' recommends shallow cultivation, and do' it all`' during autumn months if possible and: only prepare a ahaliow *seed bed in the spring In ,heavy clay soils, would rib it up with the plow in the fall and let the .frost.get in ;'its- work, poly eris ing and leaving it in^ good shape foz' spring -seeding, ,and of 'course .close clay, ''soil should ° be well drained. Another problem is to cultivate, our grain crops ,during: the season as We •. do: with. corn and root crops, ithe pur- pose. being to arrestthe: evaporation of .moisture from the soil during. dry: 'weather. The wet probletn.is the Pre- serving of the fertility of the soil we : take nothing -from ..the soil in producing, butter ; we take. a very little inproducing cheese, and' a little'. more in producing beef. , Nitrogen, phosphoric• acid•. and potash. are the most important., fertilizing factors.' Three-fourths of the atmosphere con stats, of nitrogen—the 'problem being` ,to. gather it. The legumes, such as the clover' plant, peas, etc are the best traps to'catch._the .tiitrogen'out of.' the': it and store' it. in the soil ;' w'ou1d` Sow ` red clover alone, cut the first crop and then plow dou,'n the; after` grass';. :but in an orchard, would plow',down` the first crop when • a blossom\ and. apply forty bushels of .wood ashes to, th-e Ore -eve ry-7a1 r nate-yeato-ger the beat results infruit. , good many ?questions came from the . audi- ence, indicating that some of bis ideas were not in practise in . -tae locality, and ' perhaps were 'not snitable to our focality. Thos..,Ddalcolni then spoke on atiy'ing, The, practice of ' dairying'. brings prosperity to every farm where .practiced, because the natural fertility: 4of'the 'soil is retained. The value sof, skim milk on the farm for..feeding was emphasized. • It cannot be replaced by: any other' food when fed 'property, glean, sweet and wartn.' Prof. Dean had quoted''anauthority: stating that. skim milk Was worth forty cents: ,Per hundredweight, equaling half the va ue of the 'butter fat 'in the milk,,n`: feeding .young pigs, would :not feed' shorts with skim'iniik but the'ordinary course grains grown on the farm: He would not' on any account feed turnips, even to other cattle in the same stable with the ,dairy cows, but• would gi V7 and feed mangolds,as a staple.. tltLt.
