It simply means playing fair with the sod bi returning organic matter and plant nutrients used up by constant crop production. Organic matter can be restored by growing deeprooteu legumes such as alfalfa or sweet clover in the rotation and plowing them under for green manure.

Feeding livestock on a rclon de- ncient in minerals, vitamin«, pro tein» and carbohydrates, a» well as fats, often lead» to nutritional dis eases. Lack of nny of the common or trace minerals in home grown feeds may be and often in. respon sible for terrine livestock, feed, la bor and investment losses. The problem of supplying miner als in their right proportions Is only a part of the compounding of a product that will solve the livestock man's problems. First, no matter how good die ingredients that go into the making up ot a feed, it livestock refuse to eat it the feed is useless so far as benefiting the animal is concerned. In recent years much has been discovered about livestock diseases due to dietary influences. In this connection, the U. S. department of agriculture aays: "Whenever n vital function , , . is interrupted owing to continued failure of the diet to supply aamclant quantities of essential nutrients, or to the in ability of the body to utilise these nutrients, the so-called nutritional diseases develop."
