There are many factors which in- fluence soil productivity, such a.s fertilization, drainage, cultural prac- tices, climate and organic matter, says K. VV. Ouellette, Dominion Ex- perimentiil Fawn, Lennoxville, Que. Tile principle effects of organic matter on soils are; 1. it is a very important source of nitrogen for crops; nitrogen and or- ganic aie closely related, and a min- eral soil high in organic matter is usually a productive soil. 2. It improves the physical condi- ' tions iif the soil. The poiosity ol soils low in organic matter is very poor and much of the rain that nor- mally shoud be retained by the soil runs off, doing untold damage by ero.sion which carries away plant nu- trients. On light soils, it binds thij, soil particles together giving m«"' cohesion and\ better consistency. .S. Soils -of low organic matter con- tent lack the property af high wtter holding capacity, that is so impor- tant to plants during dry summei periods. <•• 4. It is the principal source of nu- tnents and energy for soil miero- f i-ganisTOS. There are many ways to maintain cr increase the quantity of organiV iiif.tter in the aoiu, a«»oii« twom jri-eefi manuring, farm manure and use of crop wastes. Crops considered as green manure are buckwheat, oats, peas and vetch mixtures, -millet, etc., which have ob- tained sufficient growth for plough- inqr down, aftermath the has not been harvested and pastures that have not been close grazed.
