Uuildlnjr them up In still different wnjs it makes the hard wood of the oak or tin* delicate ymtals of a rose.- Man, with nil his aliUl nnd machinery, Jms never been able to make nny product* half so woudorful as are being made every day In every field on your farm. It plants are to grow rapidly nnd [ r dure large yields, they must in* well fed. Abaut lia'f tlie dry weight of n mature plaut Is made up of car lion. Fracticaliy nil of thl.-; comes from the carbon dioxide of tbe air. Eccryarre of wheat w iil use a ton of Ibis ges or all that Is in a layer of nlr three miles deep over the acre. Tho Constant,mix ing of the air by the wind is alwaya bringing fresh supplies within reach of the plirht. The farmer decs not need to concern himself with the supply of carbon di oxide, for every tiru* he builds a fire or even breathes h** Is adding to the store of this mnterkil In the nir. The umooth upper surface of a leaf is both nir and water tight. On the underside, however, are many rnrail openings, which are really the tnoukbs of the phu t. It is through these tiny holes that carbon dioxide is taken into the leaf to be used by the chlorophyll. In making starch nnd other products out of carbon dioxide and water some oxygen is given off. This passes out through the openings in the leaves. Tli ns yen nee tliat plants breathe in much the same way ns animals do, only they give off oxygen, the product which js tired by aniuiais, and take up carbon dioxide, the' gas which is breathed out by animal:?. In this way plants make animal life possible. Ani mals give off enrbou dioxide and manure ns waste products. Plants •tear these waste products to pieces and by rebuilding them make them once mure into ford for the animals. Next to carbon hydrogen and oxy gon ere the foods that the plant uses in largest quantities. Since water Is composed of these elements, the sup ply will be plentiful as long as there Is plenty of water In tho soil. There Is one element, nitrogen, which forms n considerable part of the plant, that 1* harder to get. While three fourths of the air Is nitrogen, tlie plant docs not seem to be able to use it lu this form. The only kind of plants that can use the nitrogen In the air nt nil are the legumes, such ns cloror and e.lfnlfa. Certain bncterta that live on the roots of these legumes hare the power of changing the nt- ntospberic nitrogen into forms In which the plant can use it. We shall study more about this process later. Nitrogen Is one of the most Impor tant plant foods, and It Is one that Is very often lacking. If the blant can not get a sufficient supply-of nitrogen it wiil be stunted, will stop growing early, and the yield will bo very much reduced. Since all the crops, with the exception of the legumes, must get their nitrogen from the soil, the farm er must see to It that there Is a plen tiful snnply there If he wishes to ob tain a largo yield. If you will drop a little rich black soil on a hot shovel some of It will go up in smoke. Tlie part that burns 1? humus and i* made up of vegetable and animal matter which Is partly de cayed. This humus contains large rtmonuts of nitrogen, and from this source tlie greater share of this ele ment used by the plant must come. If your soli I* black, spongy and well supplied with humu.* there la little danger that the plant will go hungry for nitrogen. One of the best ways to keep a Held In this condition Is to ap ply liberal.quantities of barnyard ma nure. Another way Is fo plow under green crops, especially clover. Some times It Is nersHiBu^v to buy nitrogen for the plant In tbe form of commer cial fertntzer*. but this Is a very ex* penalte way of obtain big It.- Even when tbe plant Is given all the nitrogen It can tise K sometimes falls IN COLUMBIA.

Some of the most Important of these are Iren, which Is the substance that helps to build up chlorophyll, mid sul phur, wWdi is found In the nitroge nous parts of the plant. There ore » number of others also, all of which are present in tljG soil in kucb large amounts Ihftt-lbere will probably a.1 ways be all that tho croj s ten uae.

On farms .whore Hi tie stock Is kept or where grain has been raised continually for years and little attention paid to tbe •oil it la HomeMmeB necessary to apply l>bospirorua and potassium in the form of commercial fertilizers. In the eastern part of this reentry there are many farms that have be come ro badly run dovsm that crops will not grow at all unless they arc fed With commercial fertiliser*.' These are very expensive, and it often takes nearly all a farmer makes to pay his fertilizer bills. These farms would neri-r have become eo worn out if they Und l een properly cared for. Leaving plowed ground, especially on hillsides, exposed for several montfft •luring the fall and winter allow* much plant food to wash away. Growing the same crcp year after year wears out the land rapidly. Different crops require different.Linds of food. By changing crops from year to year no one food material Is used to excess nnd tbe ethers wasted. By keeping as much stock oa tbe farm as possible, aaring the manure carefully and spreading ft on the fields Irefc-re it rot* er leaches away and hr using leguminous plants to gather nitrogen tbe soil enn be kept wed supiptied with plant food. It Is much more profitable to feed the crops In this way than to bur plant food on the mr.rkct at excessive prices. Usually, however, the plant Is hungry for the mineral elements net ■levause they are not In the poll, bnt because they are in a form tn whkh It onnnot get nt them.
