"This bulletin gives an account of the recent mouse plague in Humboldt Valley, Nevada. Its object to acquaint farmers with the dangers from field mice to describe the best methods of destroying and controlling the animals. Through referring particularly to the Nevada outbreak, the recommendations apply to similar species in other parts of the United States." -- Introduction p. 5.
To build up and maintain fertility in the soil, feed a large part of the crops and return the manure to the land. If manure is not available, plow under crops grown for the purpose. Plow deep (but do not subsoil). Grow leguminous crops for the nitrogen they add to the soil. Commercial fertilizers and lime may be important means of improving the soil, but the fertilizer requirements of different soils and different crops in different seasons are so little understood that we are not yet in a position to make positive recommendations that are of a general application.
