Arrangements are also being urged by Mr. Prince by which womer will be given more time for registra tion, as it would be well nigh impossible to get a large number on jus1 three days which it has been stated that they would have for regisering I .

Strange is it may seem J , to us our lands when first cultivated lhad enough plant food in them to'j ! produce an average yield of nearly j 140 bushels of corn per acre. One I county in Maine averaged around j ! 500 bushels of irish potatoes per acre, and is said to be the richest, county in the U. S. The farmers there have their homes painted, artificial lights and running water in jtheir homes, good roads, churches, ,and schools. The soils of France, . England, Denmark and Germany are about as. rich today as they were when first cultivated, yet these soils have been in cultivation for thousands of years.

' 1 1 r*li A*t? ^TAIl productive soil anu i win snun ^uu -a prosperous farming section.. I Why are our soils so unproduc-' tive while the soils of the North and Europe are about as productive .to-day as they were when first cultivated? It is because we . have practiced a One Crop System of farm-1 ing for more than a century. We! have planted cotton on the same' land for years and years, never ro-' , tating our crops or turning soil' building crops in order that we may ' '.put back to the soil the plant food we take out. A young man told me recently he had seen his father plant cotton on the same land for years and years until the land had ' become so poor farming was not ' profitable. That young man farmed for about one to two years and left the farm and went to town. There is a certain amount of plant food in our soils, and there is a certain amount of plant food taken from our soils every time we harvest a crop, and unless we put back to the soil in the form of fertilizers and soil building crops the plant food 1 removed in our crops you can readily see that our soils become poorer and poorer, hence farming must beI come more and more unprofitable. Feed your soil and it will feed you. ' J South Carolina, with robber crops, in 1911, removed from their soils in fruit, stalk growth and seed, approximately $70,000,000 worth - of plant food, that is, nitrogen, pot: ash and phosphorus. Yet the farmf ers of South Carolina purchased onr ly $23,000,000 worth of fertilizers . in 1911. If you subtract the plant ? +a flifi c/vil in fprili*. I, ? ? ~ ' zer purchased in 1911 from the - amount of plant removed from the . soil when the crops were removed, ? you can easily see that the soils of , Boutih Carolina were robbed of mil. lions of dollars worth of plant food. > Of course a considerable amount of . plant food was turned back to the soil when the stalk growth was turned, but even then there was a great overdraft in the plant food of our soils.
