Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Elements of Agricultural Chemistry and Geology In England, and on the continent of Europe, it has been long understood among the class who own the soil, and cultivate it by the sweat of the brow of other men, and not their personal labor, that success in husbandry must depend upon giving to the soil, in some form, what is annually taken away in cultivated crops. In America, in the older States, the same truth is at length reluctantly admitted. The census tables have shown that the wheat crop of New York, in some counties, has fallen in its average product so low as eight bushels to the acre, where formerly from thirty to forty were produced. Lands deemed inexhaustible have been cropped almost to barrenness. Large sections of territory in Virginia, formerly very productive, by a course of culture not guided by a correct knowledge of the science of Husbandry, have become utterly unproductive, and been abandoned by the original cultivators. A succession of tobacco crops raised by shoal plowing without artificial manuring, or a proper rotation with other products, exhausted the surface soil, and compelled the proprietors to seek fresh fields.
