TO EVERY MEMBER OF THE
Soil Plans Should
Cover Several Years
Fertilize to Replace
Lost Organic Matter
Stressing that there are no “short
cuts” to producing high yields on
poor, run-down, overcropped land,
Prof. A. L. Lang of the agronomy
department, University of Illinois,
advised farmers to let soil tests
guide their soil improvement and
fertilizer program.
“When soil tests show strong acid-
ity and a need for limestone, they
also indicate a low state of organic
matter,” he pointed out. “When
soils are low in organic matter, they
are usually in a state of poor tilth,
lack nitrogen and have insufficient
water holding capacity. Any
amount of mineral fertilizers can-
not be expected to economically
raise corn and other grain crops
yields until the lime, organic matter
and nitrogen requirements of the
soil are met.”
Lang urged farmers to apply
limestone, phosphorus and potash
fertilizers for the legume sod crops
in accordance with the needs of the
land as indicated by chemical tests.

Then, he added, grow maximum
legume hay crops, either plowing
them back into the soil green or
as animal manure.
“The best method is to plan a
business-like, systematic program
or action on the farm that will over
a period of years return the land
to its native state of high and per-
manent productivity,” Lang stated.
On highly productive soil, mixed
fertilizer of the proper grade and
properly applied may supply eco-
nomically a portion of the main-
tenance rations and in addition give
that extra “umph” so often needed
during the early stages of growth,
he said. Quickly available plant
foods applied near the seed of crops
at planting time help overcome
many external handicaps such as
and unfavorable weather conditions,
he concluded.

Farm Doors Opened
By Automatic Control
Many automatic controls are be-
ing applied to' reduce the man-hours
of labor on the farm. One of the
newest is an adaption of the prox-
imity control, so sensitive to any
object which comes near, it auto-
matically throws a switch to open
gates when cows gather before milk-
ing time. The Minneapolis-Honey-
well device is worked in conjunction
with an automatic timer, thus pre-
venting gate opening too soon.
