ed farming and pointed oat. that that

tain the fertility of the soil Miee Kauf

plenty of room for good farmers, and

rotatioa was esoential to keeping up the
present fertility of their lands, nasi-'
ready, on the older farms, tbe yield of
grains was gradually getting lees, and
that different methods woald have to be
used. In the eveaiag Mr. Keysor spoke
