RELATIOX OF CROP TO THE CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OP THE SOIL. In considering the effect of the chemical composition of the soil upon the character and magnitude of the crop we have a problem of intricate difficulties. If we regard the soil in the light of the total plant food contained therein as indicated by treatment with hot concentrated hydrochloric acid for a considerable period of time we introduce figures which must be foreign to the problem in question. In point of fact, in order to have any accurate conception of this problem it is necessary to differentiate the amount of any given plant food consumed by a given crop from the total supply which is present.
