By crop rotation we mean tin- aitemat- ing of crop« ou tlie «aine piece of ground for Bia-roeding yearw. That » a sjsu-m wla-reby tlie same crop is ¿rown on dif ferent parrots Of pPN*t*V of tfie farm for ««H»ive M-aaofia. A rotation w e*un- pleted when every crop inchniesl in «ani ryeteui haa been grown upon lla- land The olijert ia to grow a larger ainoent >4 produce in aggn-galr than would la- po“- ■able umler continuous i ropj.iug of one article of fann produce. It was Uuraght at one time Uuvl roots of various plants exert-U-d solsataiiros harmful to the crop ami that throe grad ually powonol tlie soil for that parta-ular variety. Different crops demand different eub- staiuae from the anti and time a rotation prevents complete exliaustuui of <me ■ le nient .nd allowing a net and rivance for recuperation. ft is very evuienl d we produie a crop uenig large amounts of nitrogen, it would be better to follow it with sou« crop Jeinanduig liut a «ua.ll amount of tliat element. Aho one crop may make, and in some < tuaae, plant food more available for souse oUe r crop. Again the rout systems of vara-« plant» differ wi<iely and it is plainly evi- dent that double the amount ol pta >t fool may be nuule available by iiiduditq; dtep rooted plants in a crop rotaliou. We also have a elaiw of plants which are capable of taking nitrogen irotn the air. This power is very valuable as it restores tliat ce ment bi an impov-rudrol sail wet at tie- same time produces a crop as w. Il. To apply uitrogeo niectianically tkrm.gh the uro of fertiliser* is a very reetly and also a very uneatrefaetory way. While by the uro of legumes, rua-h as eiovvr, peas or vetch, it may be tsdh profitst ly and economically aix-oinplialeii. To every observer of iarni crope an«i tla-ir growth is brought h.tue the lsct that all economic plants have their ene- miev in the shape of nuO, nnirta, uul- dewe or inrevts and thus another atTvaii- tage is gained by rotatiou. Frrliape the oji X potent reason » the greater ease ot eradicating weeds trjit fuive l.otic find in a field. After growing grain and grwvsw tor a number of years it la very profitable to grow some of tile hoed or enhjvated tre pw and thus destroy those plant« that are undesirable. Having shown the reason and use of crop rotation we must now eoowder what crops to include in such a rotation. In decMtiug this we must take Into arcreant the demands of the market, character of a41 and cost of production. On a dairy farm it would naturally ihvural ie to grow large quantities of forage and green feed for I hium - conMuiipUuu while on n general farm market imHlitions ami .ie- mands would naturally govern the method followed. Finally, soil, market and adaptibility of tillage miu« rieroma- rily govern any system followed. J. G. KtiJ.v, of Evening Btar Grarq-e.
