Voelker thus explains the action of,
:i ' ii
seen that the best crops of wheat are
produced by being preceded by crops
of clover grown for need. I have
come to the conclusion that the very
best preparation, tho very best ma
nure, U a good crop of clover."
" A vast amount of mineral manure
Is brought within reach of the corn
crop, which otherwise would remain
Inn lock-up condition in the soil.
Tho clover plants tnko mtroguufrom
thoatmospheie, and manufacture It
Into their own siihslmicc, which, on
decomposition ol the clover routs nnd
leaves, produces iiliuiiilntiecof iiinmo-
lit. In reality, the growing of clover
Is equivalent, to n great extent, to
manuring with Peruvian guntio; and
In this paper of mine I show (hut
you obtain a larger tpniutlty of ma
nure than In tho large. t doie of IV
riivhui guano which a farmer would
ever think of applying."
" It Isonly by carefully investigating
siibject.s like the one under consider
ation that positive proofs uro given,
showing tho correctness of Intelligent
observers In tho Held."
