His con- clusions ‘on the fertilization question are worthy of consideration. DITOR Nonpartisan Leader: In the Leader of November 24 we got a very interesting article about the use of com- mercial fertilizers, es- pecially nitrate. - Mr. Ross is attack- ing the theory of Liebig, 1842, of bal- ancing the soil. This theory claims that after every crop we ought to give back to the soil, pound for pound, the elements taken out by adding fertiliz- ers in order to keep the soil in the proper chemical proportion. Mr. Ross claims this theory to be wrong and predicts that the methods of using fertilizers will be changed in the near future. He proves that the constant use of nitrates in the Pennsylvania experiment station decreased the yield, instead of increasing it. I have farmed for over 20 years and studied -the art of fertilizing, not only -in theory but in practice, on my own farms in America and in Europe, and I therefore am very interested in every new idea about fertilizing. Mr. Ross’ claim that Liebig’s theory is wrong and that a long and plentiful use of nitrates (especially Chili salt- peter and sulphurous ammonia) de- creases our yields is right. I am cer- tainly wondering why some colleges in Ohio and Pennsylvania and the ferti- lizer association still hang on to their out-of-date theory. In Europe, and so far as I know, in different states in America too, the scientific and prac- tical farmers don’t use Liebig’s theory at all for figuring the amount and kind of fertilizers they need on their land. They knew long ago that the physical condition of the soil is the principal factor for figuring amounts and kinds of fertilizers needed. The ways of giving our -crops the needed amount of nitrogen are differ- ent, but in brief are as follows: 1. By using legume crops, which take their nitrogen from the air. Every practical farmer knows that on sandy soils, nitrogen fertilizing is necessary.to get the right start, while the gathering of the air nitrogen starts when the plants are blossoming. 2. By nitrification of the soil, es- pecially in dark soils rich in humus, by summer fallow. This chemical process is not yet entirely known. It is sure that bacteria are helping this precess and perhaps some air nitrogen is add- ed. This is the reason that by certain crop rotations without any fertilizing the soil is getting richer in nitrogen. This method is the most important on in humus and organic matter. With- out manure and commercial fertiliz- of its present crops. to be done with care. Chili saltpeter, care.. This is the reason that in to use Chili saltpeter alone or too much in the last years of his rent. This per- haps also explains the smaller yields on the Pennsylvania experiment fields. Mr. Ross is right when he writes the soil chemist is not the right person to teach fertilizing. Theory and prac- tice ought to join each other here and like in Europe the matter can be taught and studied in the right man- ner on the farm. ) W. F. TH. KERSSEN Bejou, Minn,- - 8.
