laity says:—"Cover orope may in a meas.
oro, take the name of fertilizers and man•
urea. They are not, however, a universal
panacea for all eoil deficienoiee, neither
are they a full eubotitute in all oases for
fertilizere. There ie always a wide field
for tbe profitable use of one or all on the
concentrated forme of fertilizers, named,
and in many oases there is also a special
please for the nee of fertilizers,
therefore the more need for honest
goods. Oommerotal fertilizere furnish
available plant food, but no humus. The
cover orop furnishes both, but it is only
fair to Bey that the plant foods in the
former are more available than the latter.
Cover orope improve the phyeioaily, Con-
dition of the soil, loosening the met of
tillage, Physically, fertilizere benefit the
coil a little or none. The humus furnished
by the clover orope increases the evailalit-
ity of the plant food already in the Boil :
fertilizers do not. Cover °rope shade the
land and conserve moisture.
It ie impossible to aoouretely compere
the oost of fertilizere with the Dost of
seeds for the Geyer orope and the prep•
oration of the soil for them. The coat
of inoreasing productively by extra tillage
by tbe use of fertilizere, by Dover orope or
by all three means, oen only be determiu•
ed in eaoh ease by the farmer interested.
I give below a single illuetration of what
a cover orop oontaine, knowing that
another cover orop ander other eonditione
might eitber be more or lees valuable.
