ROTATION OF CROPS URGED
The,Departm»tit’s Kstlmato of Cotton
Crop Made I’* S> ptnnb«r Is
New Verlfi-il. ;
The best method of keeping up the
fertility cf our lands is^a vital question
with our farmers all over the country.
How fo do flits and at the samo time
grow renumorative crops every year is
a hard question to answer.
When our lauds were original for¬
ests, nature kept up the fertility of her
soil, returning all she extracted, and
more too, by.falling twigs, leaves and
branches. The plowman, on the other
hand, begins his work of depletion of
soil from tLe first year’s cultivation,
and has continued- this .plan down to
the pre-efift.
Now we must right about fane and
return to nature’s laws and give back
to the soil as much plant food as we
take away every year. This can be
done in a measure by rotation of crops,
judicious manuring, proper cultivation
and drainage, both overground and
bolt have met this demand, and the
cotton crop has increased from
i,600,000 in J869 to 11,000,000 in 1898 99.
Can we continually raiee’this cUan, and!
exhaustive crop on the same field,
maintain, the fertility of the aoil? The
suffering fieida.of Georgiain 1808 90
yielded 1,500.000 bales of cotton. For
this bounty the fields got for their. hare
oniv e few dried leaves and stioks. The
cotton lmt was all gathered and sold at
6 oents and the seed at 10 cent, per
bushel, w-.t'n a premise that cotton seed
sh«r. Id be returned in the spring. Ro

During September we issued a state

8 cents by Jau. 1. 1000, and by March l

Nothing in our experience will restore
wasted and ...... thin lands so „ rapidly _ and ,
effectually ... as the cow pea. After I, you
cut your grain in the spring sow down
in peas. After the first frost turn under
the vines and seed to wheat or oats.
Continue ibis rotation for three years
and you cau increase the fertility of |
yonr land three fold. The pea vine to
the sonth is what the clover is to the
West.
