Conservation of the Soil and farm science shift
The piece argues for soil conservation over industrial progress, urging farmers to treat farming as a scientific profession. It stresses crop rotation, soil study and smaller holdings, warning of looming food shortages as U S production grows insufficient for a rising population. It notes debates on wealth, imports, and industrial power, then shifts to miscellany about a Duke Abruzzi marriage, a New York club incident, war dogs, and local schooling reforms.
