C.f Aug. 18.?-That Nature's forces take, an enormous toll fr?m the hillsides of Piedmont North Carolina is shown by measurement; Of soil erosion conducted by engine-rs of th Drainage Division on the Experiment Station farm near Raleigh. During the period from June 18 to July 18 the loss of soil from a plot .erx feet wide and one hundred and seventy-five feet long planted to cot ton was 1157. pounds or an average of 25 tons to the acre. One-fifth of an inch of soil was removed from the surface during this period with a ^rainfall of 9.13 inches; On estimate of the plant food lost' cn each acre and its value in dollars and cents is as follows: Phosphoric acid 21 lbs. at -5c $1.05 Potash 666 lbs. at 5c____._ 33.30 Nitrogen 22 lbs. at 20c 4.40 Total., $38.75 The method used in measuring the ?C-il was to collecte the siltladen water as it drained from the plot into large tanks where it was allowed to settle. The water was then drained o? and the remaining: mud taken out. dried and weighed. The plant fool Iqu was then found by analyses. Save the Soil. In order to remedy this lo*?, cover -crops must be grown and above all, a system of terrace* most be con-' structed and maintained. This is most! important as terraces lessen the leaching amf'^ep the fertile soil on the fields. While md*t of the soil i?. deposited in holows and small valleys before it reaches the stream, yet the < k larger part is lost, a* only a small W portion of the soil thus deposited can be used for the growing crops. Prop- | erly constructed terraces will keepj this soil on the hillside whgre its fer- ' iility can be used. I SEND US YOUR ORDER FOR EVERYTHING TO BUILD WITH.
