Missouri College of Agriculture urges learning by experiment
W A Albrecht explains that soil study at Sanborn Field Columbia and outlying Missouri fields offers long term lessons in crop rotations manure and phosphate use. Bulletin 182 and 238 summarize findings showing lime legumes and phosphates improve soil and yields. Fertilizer, when used moderately, preserves soil health and sustains wheat and clover profits, while excessive or sole reliance harms soil. Public notices announce estate sale and farm services.
