In Live sjtyck Farming III. — Live Stock Farming and Soil Fertility. By C. V. GREGORY. j Author of "Home Course In Modern Agriculture.- -Making Money on the Farm.- Etc. Copyright. 1S0S. by American Press Association. WHEREVER grain Is grown continuously for a number of years the soil decreases In yielding power. If the p racier Is kept up the yields will finally jecome so low as to be unprofitable, and the land is said to be worn out The fact Is It Is not worn out anymore than a sickle is worn out when ft becomes too dull to cut. Both the sickle and the soil need a certain amount of treatment before they are in shape to use again. in the case of the soli nature will restore it to its original productivity

If given time. Crops of weeds will spring up. make a considerable growth and die dowD and rot. In the course of a few years the humus supply will be renewed, locked up elements of fertility will become available, and the field will again produce profitable crops. If rotation is practiced so as to even up the demands on the soil, wiLH clover or some other legume to gather nitrogen from the air. the soil will continue productive for a much longer time. Even then it will not keep on yielding profitable crops always. Commercial fertilizers may help to stave off the day of reckoning, but after the farmer has contributed hundreds of dollars to the pockets of the fertilizer manufacturer be will find that even this method of maintaining fertility cannot be depended upon. Keeping the Soil Productive. There are three factors on wblbb the productivity of the soil primarily depends— the amount of available mineral plant food elements which It contains. its physical condition and the amount of moisture Jt will hold. Nione of the three most importaut chemical elements In the soil, can be obtained from the air in unlimited quantities by the use of legumes, such clover and alfalfa. The other two. phosphorus and potassium, are present In most soils In fairly large quantities, although much of the supply Is lu unavailable form. Good tillage and well planned rotations do much to make these elements available. When the total supply becomes low it can renewed by the application of fertiThis is all, however, that fertilizers will do. They will not iui tile physical condition of the soil nor increase its moisture lioidina capacity. The use of liberal amounts of clover the rotation will add to the liuuius supply of the soil and so increase its moisture holding capacity. Humus acts like a sponge, forming a storefor water that would otherwise wasted. Humus also Improves tbe physical condition of tbe soil, makiug It iigbt'--.- and mellower. Take a panful of - : i and a panful of rich black . surface muI. wet them thoroughly and place them In tbe sun. When the clay ' dry it wilt be baked almost as bard ! as a brick, while a little stirring will make tbe black dirt as mellow as ever. This difference in the two soils is due ' solely to humus. The humus supply caunot be main- ' tailed by the use of clover unless a ' crop is plowed under at frequent In- ' tervals. It takes considerable time for this clover to rot enough to form 1 and tbe turning under of so ' large an amount of green matter at once Is liable to make tbe land "sonr." 1 Tbls condition can be corrected by the 1 use of lime, bot this means trouble J and expense The Value of Manure. , The onl- w-iv to keep tbe soil in the j highest iHKsible state of productivity , is to keep live stock and. apply the , to the land. Barnyard uintiui- £ adds large amounts of the elements of ■; fertility to the soli An average of , per cent of tbe nitrogen, phosphom- ( and potassium in tbe food eaten Is , passed out In the manure. This per- j centage is highest In fattening nnlmalt < and Iqweat In young stock. The ele- ]

the elements ara figured at thJ'sppjoxlmate rate that would have to be paid If they were purchased In the form of commercial fertilisers.

U This table shows at a glance tbe great economy, considered from a fertility standpoint, of marketing grain in tbe form of live stock. Adding fertilizing materials to the soil, however, is only one of the ways In which manure Is beneficial. It helps to break down tbe unavailable minerals. It adds humus, and this Is of a kind that mixes readily with the soil. Thus tbe physical condition and water holding capacity of the soli are Improved even more than where clover is used. Instead plowing under clover It can be fed. The resulting manure will do ' the soil almost as much good as tbe clover would If turned under. Thus both tbe feeding and fertilizing valnes are obtained from It By using a regular rotation with clover and feeding all the rough feed and most of the grain on the farm the soil can be brought up to a very high state of productivity and kept there for an indefinite period of time. In an experiment at tbe Ohio experiment station where manure was applied every three years to a rotation ( of corn, wheat and clover at the rate of eight tonS to the acre tbe average , increase In yield was 14.7 bushels of corn, 8.36 bushels of wheat and 686 y pounds of clover. The value of tbe t increased yields due to the eight tons of manure was $17.82, or $2.17 per ton I for the manure. This was for manure j that was obtained In the open yard. Manure that had been tramped down In sheds where It was under shelter I had a value of $2.95 per ton In Increas- \ ed crop yields. The results obtained on a little rundown farm in Pennsylvania strikingly 1 show what can be done with manure. 4 This farm was so badly exhausted 1 that it would produce scarcely any- ' thing. Dairying was Introduced and ^ the manure applied to the laud. After .< a few years of such treatment and _ without the addition of any commercial fertilizers whatever the productivity of the farm was so greatly Increased that an annual revenue of $200 to the acre was received from it. The effect of manure continues for a great many years after Its application. Experiments with manured and unmaoured land have shown that the ' yield In tbe manured plots was considerably greater twenty years after tbe last application of manure was Applying Manure. Tbe best results are obtained, bowel er. when manure Is applied frequently and In comparatively small amounts. For tbe ordinary field crops an application of eight tons to . the acre is sufficient at one time. To - get tbe required amount on each acre and to get It applied evenly a spreader is a necessity. Manure spread evenly over the ground Is much more effective than that thrown about In f ' 11 - 1

large chunks, us Is usually done, with pitchfork. Still worse Is the practice of dropping the manure In piles, leaving it nearly all winter and then toward spring scattering it about with a fork. In addition to spreading the d manure more evenly, the spreader ® work enough to warrant any one who has much stock in buying Tbe spreader should be kept in use 1 practically tbe year round. Manure In the o|>en yard for six months loses nearly half its fertilizing value. ' kept lu sheds does not lose In value nearly so rapidly. A practice that Is sometimes followed on dairy C farms is to have a shed In connection - with the barn, keeping the cows In this shed most of tbe time, turning them tbe barn only long enougb to Im> / milked. A plan that Is preferable 10 I this is to have a small shed over the door where the manure Is thrown out spreader can be backed into ibis shed and tbe manure loaded directly to It at seasons of the year when can be spread directly upot. tbe fields At other times tbe tnanun be thrown out Into the shed ai:d B there until It <-au be hauled '
