Don't forget that soil is as jealous as a lover; neglect or mistreat it and its bounty is withdrawn. Caress and feed it, and it yields a hundred fold. Don't forget that a farmer becomes a soil robber when he does not each year put back into the soil more or ganic matter than he farmed out of it that year. Don’t forget that corn stalks are one of the farmer’s best by-products. A ton of them contains sixteen pounds of potash, and the organic matter in them is of inestimable value for sup plying humus to the soil. Don't forget that the moisture-con serving capacity of soil is increased by the plowing under of large amounts of organic matter. Don’t forget that organic matter in the soil aids soil ventilation and fur nishes supplies of nitrogen for growing plants. Don’t forget that rye and the clo- I vers are the best producers of or-j gariic matter. Don't forget that the farmer who refuses to supply the wants of his soil is traveling along the highway of the abandoned farm. Don’t forget that it takes less than fifty years to farm out the fertility of the soil if none is added in the mean time. We will have more don’t forgets next week. J. B.
