and increased by the decaying, or-
ganic matter. The humus acts t.s
a sponge or blotting -paper, absorb-
ing large quantities of water in
,easons of plenty and releasing it
during dry periods. It changes the
physical condition of the soil mak-
ing it granular, open and loose,
allowing the water, air and bac-
teria to go down into the soil and
make it productive.
Over the years, man, in his need
to produce annual. or short -period
crops, has offset Nature's leisurely
way of replenishing the soil—but
has unfortunately not provided a
good enough substitute. Thinking
of the soil as permanent, he has
wasted much of the reserve plant
food by removing from the soils
more than he returned. Little
thought was given to humus, until
today many soils are low in humus
content and the physical condition
has changed from granular, open,
loose soils, capable of bolding
plenty of moisture, to fine particles
that compact. puddle and bake, and
prevent the air and bacteria from
entering deeply because there is
no moisture carrying capacity.
'Because of the very nature of
these low -humus soils, they cause
drifting and erosion as water can-
not easily penetrate them, but
must run over the surface carry-
ing much of the plant food down
to low-lying areas and streams
where it is lost.
Soil' conservation is one of the
big problems facing agriculture the
world over. Much can be done by
individual farmers by ploughing
down more cover crop and refuse
and by making full use of manures
and fertilizers.
Iodine in Salt is Easily Lost
Study ,by scientists of the Dom-
inion Dep;u'tlnent of Agriculture
shows that iodine in salt can be
easily lost. They found, for in-
stance, that all the iodine in salt
blocks had disappeared in two
months after exposure in pasture,
and that there was no chemical
method of preventing this loss.
The answer is to only put out at
a time, as much iodized salt as the
animals will lick up in a few days.
When fed in the stall, salt loses
its iodine less rapidly, but no more
than can be consumed in two
months should be used at a, time.
Iodized rock salt will keep well
for about nine months if stored in
a dry' place in its original contain-
er. Loose salt containing iodine
will remain stable up to fifteen
months if kept in tightly closed
glass jars,
Ice Storage Need Not Be Costly
If a source of ice is available
nearby for cutting, it does not
need an elaborate ice -house to
store a reasonable quantity of ice
for use later in the year. Any un-
occupied corner of a shed will
serve as a site for a. rough -board,
enclosure. An enclosure ten feet
square and eight feet high will
hold enough ice to provide fifty
pounds a day for 130 lays, after
allowing for a reasonable amount
of wastage. The smaller the quan-
tity stored. the larger the propor-
lion of wastage.
The bottom of the enclosure
should he covered with about one
footof sawdust. IF the soil be-
neath is impervious clay it will he
better if there are a. few inches of
gravel below the sawdust. In put-
ting in the ice the 'hoards can be
taken away from one side and be
replaced when the ice is in posi-
tion. A space of one foot to be
filled with sawdust., should be left
between the ice and the boards.
The ice should also be covered
with sawdust.
It is the sawdust that keeps the
dee from melting, and the drier the
ice the longer It will keep.
