Prof. Martin P Scott in 'Sout'r ern States Farm Magazine," of Bal timore for February. You cannot, by the use of com mercial fertilizers alone, make your land rich. Indeed, if tbey are irfno rantly applied, tbe result will be tbe impoverishment of tbe soil. If you add (10 to your bank aoooumt and check out 120, you know 'the result. In like manner, when you use a small quantiy of your ferti'.li z?r, it grows vigorous plant, which enables it to gather fertility from tbe soil largely in excess of tbe ma terials added by the fertilizer. Ju diciously used, they are a groat bogo to tbe farmer. But, I repeat, tne best method of using the phos phates and potash salts is on tbe pea and clover crops. It ensures, as a rule, a fine crop of these reno v&'ors.
