I a& Name I Heavy wartime cropping drained twice as much nitrogen from Illinois soils as was put back by fertilizer applications or legume crops, declares O. L. Whalin, University of Illinois. What was true In Illinois wp,s true of farm soils in numerous Other Midwestern states. Approximately 3,300,000 tons of ni trogen were removed from the soil in harvested crops in the 1942-4period, Whalin points out. But only about 1,500,000 tons of nitrogen were returned to the land. This replacement included nitrogen in fertilizer applications, plus 60 per cent of the nitrogen in legumes harvested ond in sweet clover turned under. The supply of other mineral ele ments was seriously depleted. Whalin estimates that only about half of the phosphorus taken from the soil was replaced. Less than as much potash was added throueh commercial fertilizers as was removed by harvested crops. DLUEBIRDS singing a song!
