A definite relation between the
amount of humus, or vegetable
matter in the soil, and its crop-
producing power is given in fig
ures just issued by the department
of agriculture. The department
advocates the use of various
methods to introduce the required
humus into the soil. Experts of
the forest service state that the
soils of the whole country, and
particularly of the west, have
lost and are losing immense
amounts of this source of soil fer
tility through forest fires which
apparently do little immediate
damage but rob the soil of ac
cumulations of humus. W here
land is being cleared for farming,
and where such forest land has
not been burned, there is a large
percentage of vegetable matter,
which provides considerable fer
tility and a good texture. M ore
over, this soil has a greater capac
ity to absorb and retain moisture,
and thus is leu likely to be washed
and gullied under heavy rains.
For these reasons, leaving out of
account the damage to sta tid in g
timber, the department’s authori
ties are agreed that fire should be
rigidly kept out of woodlands.
