England Urges Soil Testing Why should I have my soil tested? This is a reason able question because after all, it requires some effort to take soil samplesproperly and to see that they reach the laboratory along with the in formation that must ac company them. This question another question; Why do you check the fuel gauge on your automobile before you start to town or on a trip? You check your fuel gauge to make sure you don't run out of gas before you reach your destin ation. In spite of this modern convenience, people still run out of gas and likewise each year many crops, "run out of fuel," before harvest time says P. W. England, Clay County Extension Chairman. Having your soil tested is in effect checking your soil's fuel unk. It tells you what the nutrient levels are In your soil; but it goes one step further. A soil test report also tells you the kind and amounts of nutrients that you need to add to reach a cer tain goal or destination. A soil test is not an end in itself, for it won't help you increase yields and profits one bit if you don't use the information it provides. It may help you save some money by enabling you to spend your fertilizer dollar more wisely but what is much more important, it can help you make more money by helping you make sure that a nutri ent deficiency is not the lim iting factor in your crop yields.
