WHAT 1 KNOW OF FARMING.
BY HORACE GREELEY
' XIX.
SOILS AND FERTILIZERS
A farmer is a manufacturer of arti
oles wherefrom mankind are fed and
clad ; his raw materials are the soil
and the various substances he mingles
therewith or adds thereto in order to
inux!Patzfe:4 -0 prpdtiet!ve capacity. His
art adn`sistsii transforming by cultiva 7
tion• crude, comparatively worthless)
and even noxious, offensive materials
into substa . nces grateful to the senses,
nourishing to the body, and sometimes
invigorating, oven strengthening, to
the mind.
I have hoard of lands that were na
turally rich enough ; I never was so ,
lucky or perchance so discerning as to
find them. Yet I have seen Illinois
bottoms whereof I was assured that
the soil was fully sixteen feet deep,
and a rich, black alluvium from top to
bottom ; . and A
,do not question the
-- m
statementaada to. me from personal
observation that portions of the,
strongly alkaline plain or swale on
Whiah Salt Luke City is built, being
for the first time plowed, irrigated,
and sown Wheat, yielded ninety bush
els of good grain per acre. I never
saw, yet on evidence believe, that pio
neer settlers of the Miami Valley,
wishing, some years after settling
them,:toSell their farms, advertised
thetri'is_ . peculiarly desirable . in • that
barns stood over a creek or' a
I , branehr,•_which swept. away._
_the
mantire!eash ,Winter or Sprhig,_with
out tinible to the owner; and I *ire
myself grown bath Wheat and Oafs
that 'veers' very, rank 'and:.lliiio7y in
strattet which fell so flat itad:lay
. •
so de [that the heads scarcely bore a
kernel: Mil I book) Wiser, better
farmer, , l should have knovia ho* to
stiffehttlie..straw and make it do its
offloeVa - Witlivcif Wind. and - storm.
(And let me hear say, lest I forget
it in its appropriate plice, that I am;
egid - fitlent kliatimost farmers sowgrain
too thickly for any but very poor
land. If one thinks it necessary to
scatior thtjee Bushels of Oats per acre,
I tell him that he - should apply more
=mum, and less seed—that land which
requires three, bushels of seed is not
rich enough to bear Oats. Ile might
better;ooncedtrate,ibis manure on
half so much land, and save two thirds
of his seed.]
I do not.hOld that the "remarkable
rich soils I have instanced needed fer
tilizing when first plowed ; I will pre
stime,thatthey did not. Yet, having
never yet succeeded in manuring a
corn,field BO high that a few loads
more Would 'not '(I judge) have in
creased ilia crop. I doubt whether
even the richestlllinois bottoms would
not yield more corn, year by year, if
reenforcod with the contents of a good '
barn-yard. And, when the first heavy
crop of Corn has , been taken from a
field—no niatior how deep and fertile
its soil—is less rich in corn-forn i iing
elenionts than it .Was" before.
, Just BO
sure' its that there is, no depletiOn or
shrinkage when nothing is taken from
nothing, so sure is it that something
cannot bo taking from something with
out diminishing its capacity to yield
something at the next call. Rotation
of crops is an expellent plan; for one
may flourish •op that which another
has rejected ; but: this does not over
bear Nature's inflexible exaction of so
mach for so much. Hence, if there
ever was a field so rich that nothing
could be added that would increase its
productive capacity, the first exacting
crop thereafter taken from it diminish
ed that capacity and rendered a ft:esh
appliCation of some fertilizer • desire:
ble. •
'Years ago, a western man exhibited
at our' Farmer's Club a specimen of
the soil of his regions which was 'juat
ly deemed very ; rich,. taken from:. a
field s WhereonTorn had' 'be'en' repeat
ediy_grown, witliout apparent ex6aue
ti6V. analysis had .:been
made of it, which Was" Submitted with
the soil. It was claimed_ that nothing
would improve its capacity for produc
ing the great Illinois staple. Prof.
Anitipo ,dh3getifficl from this conclusion.
eaid ,
,•rieh
in neuilkeve6 , ' - elerrient which enters
into the composition of Corn, gives
barely a trace of Chlorine ; the bneo , of
Salt; •itenee, if five bushels per acre
of Salt be applied to that field, and it
do'ds not 'thereupon yield five bushels
pee anniim more of COrn, I will agree
to' eat the field." ' ,
Many men fertilize their poor lands,
only, supposing that the better can do
without. I jndge that to be a mistake.
My rules would be to plant the poor ,
est with such choice trees as thrive
without manure, and pile the fertili
zers upon the better. It seems 'to me
plaitiit):lo of two fields, one of which'
has a soil - containing nine -tenths of the
elements of the_dpsired crop,wbilo the
other shows but one to throe-tenths, it
is a more hopeful And less thankless
task to enrich the former , than the lat.
ter, If you aro required to supply to
a field nearly every thing that your
proposed crop will withdraw:from it,
• •,
I do not see where theprofitectmes in;
but if yottire required Co , supply but
a tonth,because the soil' as you found
it stood ready to contribute the re
maining ninc.teeths, it seems to me
that the margin for profit is here de
cidedly the greater. •
How many tuns of earth ought a
farmer to be obliged to turn over and
over in order to obtain therefrom a
hundred bushels of corn ? Two hun
dred 'I Five hundred ? A thousand?
:Five thousand ? Other things being
equal, no one will doubt that, if he can
make the corn from ono hundred tuns
of soil, it were better to do so than to
employ five hundred or five thousand.
it seems clear to my mind that,
though other conditions be unequal, it
is generally well to endeavor to pro
duce the ire:qh ttryi. - 'frozn the
smaller rather than the larger area,
I fully sharcitlie . average farmer's
partiality for barn-yard manure in
preference to.most, if not all, commer-,
inY judgment; 6,1=1
most any farmer who has cattle, with
fit shelter and. Winter fodder, can
make fertilizers far cheaper than he
can buy thorn. I.—judge that almost
every farmer who : has paid $lOO or
overforpluano. (for. instance,) might
haie:More considerably enriched hie
farm :by drawing. muck kWh dome
convenient bog or pond into his barn
yard in August or September and cart
ing it thence to his field the next Fall,
If ho can get no muck within a mile,
lot him cut when they are in blossom
all the weeds that grow near him, es
pecially by the roadside, cart them at
once into his barn-yard, and there con
vert them into fertilizers. In autumn,
replace , the hay rack on the wagon or
cart, and pile load after load of frestily
fallen leaves into your yard, taking
thein,llyou may, frem the sides of
roads and fences, and from any .place
whore they have been lodged or heap
ed by the winds, your own wood-lot
1 1
excepted. Plow the turf off of any
scurvy lot or roadside, and pile it into
the barnyard; nay, dig a hundred
loads of pure clay, and place it there
if you can get it at small expense, and
your average soil is gravelly or sandy
The farmer who is unable or reluctant
to buy commercial fertilizers should
apply his whole force , every . Autumn
to replenishing his barnyard with that
material which he can obtain most eas
ily which the trampling of his cattle
may readily convert - into manure: A
month is too little, two months would
not be too much,
,to devote to this
good work. Some may seem obliged
to postpone it .to Winter; but. that is
to run the risk of embarrassment by
frost or snow, and encounter the cer
tainty that your material will' be in
ferior in quality, or not so well fitted
to apply 'to grain-props the ensuing
Fall.
I clOseby reiterating my belief that no
farmer over yet impoverished himself
by making too much manure or by ap
plying too much 'of his own nnanufac
tdre. I cannot speak so confidently
of buying commercial fertilizers; but
these I will discuss in my next.
