Ross, One Of • the County's Most Scien tific Farmers. Li cust Hill Farm, N. C. Sept. 10, 1907. Mr. Editor : Our soil sepms to be so neglect ed and as it is so important to tbo life of nil plants and animals, I wish to say a tew words in behalf of it, as it is going from us every time we have a rain into tho creeks and rivers. It is time for us to stop and think, and see if we can't use some precaution against it. If all of it should be swept away at once, life would be extinct upon this earth. When we allow our lands to wash away we are wasting our landed estates just as a son would waste his father's estate. We are also responsible to God as tillers of the soil how we preserve and take care of it. Our preach- j ers tell us that ignora'ice is no ex- ; cuse. So we can't plead that, for all the unsightly gullies that we see in passing over the country. The soil is a great resevoir for preserving the air, heat and water, > the three essential things to the growth of all our plants. Our • soils should be in a condition in the spring so they could return the warm air and water that falls upon it, so it may become warm, as it requires heat to unlock the plant food that the cold winter lias locked up. The heat also hatches the microbe that is so necessary for the extention of nitrogen from the air and depositing it in the plant 9 that they live upon. Water is also needed, as that helps to warm the soil in the spring, and it also dissolves the plant food that heat bus unlocked and it carries it to the roots of the plants that have started to yrow and percolate through the soil, making it porous so the little roots can penetrate it and reach out further for more food, as that nearist to the plant becomes less nourishing. I have tried to tell you some of the benefits of heat and water in " our soils, now I wish to tell yon how to preserve these. One of the first and greatest is humus, as that opens the pores of the soil so the heat and water can penetrate it. The warm April rain comes down and pushes the cold winter water lower down in the soil, leaving the warm water in the surface soil, then it is very important to hold that water, and the best means that can possibly hold it is to be gin the work of the plow and keep ! a dust mulch on it as water will not evaporate through it but will perculate through it. To show that water will not come up through it, if we take a brick and soak it in water and lay a sponge on it the brick will uot take any of the water from the sponge but soak the sponge and lay it on the brick and the brick will take all the water from the sponge, sh.jw ing that water wilt leave a porous soil and go to a solid and not come up through the porous one.
