As a result of this system of fanning, the soils of this county are low in humus or vegetable matter, soluable plant foods that are applied in fertilizer readily leach away in the drainage waters from the comparatively heavy rainfall and most of the soils are in a very sour or acid condition.

C7 %/ The permanent prosperity of this county depends upon the fertility of our soils and increased crop productio nunder Boll Weevil Conditions. The Boll Weevil is here to stay, and we must change our methods of farming in order most effectively to combat this insect. In doing this we shall at the same time be practicing a system which will gradually build up our soils from year to year and increase their producing power while decreasing the cost of production. Most of our soils are not only deficient in humus, hut thev are also low in nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash, the three elements of plant food supplied in ready mixed commercial fertilizers. Nitrogen is the limting plant food or the one that must be supplied first in order to increase crop production. It is also the most expensive to buy in commercial form. There is an unlimited supply of it in the air, and all the poa oearing plants called legumes, such as beans, peas, clovers and vetches, have the power of drawing on this infinite supply and cfAvinrr it in fknir nu'n ficciioc WVton they are plowed under or pastured with livestock and all the manure saved to the land- large quantities of this most precious food are thus stored, in the soil by every legume crop to be used by corn, cotton or other crops in the rotation. The addition of these legume crops to the soil, wither directly by green manuring or through licestock, not only gets nitrogen from the air, but also builds up the vegetable or humus supply which is the very foundation of soil fertility. We can't, have a good rich live soil without a large humus supply. < Our climate and soil conditions permit us to grow a large variety of legumes both winter and summer for soil improvement, money crops, hay and pasture for livestock, and in order for us to farm profitably under boll weevil conditions it is necehsary that we take advantage of these wonderful natural conditions which God in his infinite, wisdom has provided for us. Soyabeans cowpeas velvet beans, Japan clover and peanuts are gdod summer legumes. Rye and vetch, oats and vetch, bur clover and crimson clover make good crops or combinations of crops for fall, winter and early spring. In order to get the best results from these legumes and fertilizers Iiooil in tVin mlutimi u-o mnct kp<>n f?Tir soils sweet. In order to do this we must apply about two tons high grade limestone per acre the tirst time and apply from one to two tons per acre every three or four years following that. Lime sweetens the soil, and makes it more favorable to most of our crops, especially clovers and other legues. Lime promotes the growth and activity of the microscopic soil organisms that change insoluble plant food fh the soil into available forms for plants. Lime also supplies calcium and magnesium to the plants for food purposes, and maintains a chemical condition in the son tnat increases uie i availability of the other plant foods. Lime also improves the general sanitary conditions of the soil- so that plant diseases are more easily con- j trolled. Lime improves the physical of the soil enabling it more effectively to hold the moisture and soluable plant food so necessary in feeding plants. It also enables the roots of crops to grow deeper and wider, giving us a larger plant growth from the same amount of plant food per cubic foot of soil. Lime can be applied any time of year that we have a field ready for it and labor and weather conditions will permit. To get the most profit from it we should follow it with a I cgume. Remember chat peanuts i hould have limestone. ( Lime, legumes, livestock and the in- ( elligent use of fertilizers, will carry; is safely through the boll weevil; j risis, will make our cotton crop a pro- i it ciop, will give us maximum crops k, it a minimum cost and improve our mils from year to year. This system j .vill enable us to build better roads,! voter homes- better schools and beter churches. It will make of us bet:er citizens and better Christians. N. E.
