he last working, to plough deep and bed

The last working, to plough deep and bed
up high. Ills Is au error winch Is attten-
dcd win iDconceIvahie injury. Every
experienced planter knows that there Is
the Dulnnus or large root. that strikes per
pendlcular aud deep into the ground, aud
the tibuus or small roots. that run Iiorizon-
tally immediately under the surface ol The

The consequence must he dropping ol

may take fresh start to grow. Or even

aud these roots are exposed to The burning

Anolher atleuuative consequence OF the
high bedding system, Is, that the CullOu
derives 40 benefit from light showers.-
The wafer Iucllnes To the middle, & runs
oil or evapnra'rs, aud does the COllon no

lIrs rain will do any good.
Perhaps some one would inquire, am
totally opposed To the bedding system! l
would ali>wcr, there is a medium IN all
things. Every virtue carried To excess,
becones Il wee. a broad Hat bed would
serve The requisite purpose. My plan Is
10 run round with broad scraper. This
ruus i.nuIrdia,cly under the surface, des-
troys the small grass, aud neither tears
down or throws The bed up higher; ami with
one or two Iurrows. with Il turning plough,

This answers lie dunhlc purpose ol shading
and accommodating moisture about The roots
of the CUtou, and absorbing more water
during light showers. whereas, the high
beds lose more moisture even IN dry wealth
er. because evaporation goes on from the
surface of the ground. The surface be-
~. increased, Of course evaporation is in
creased.
Il may he thought that these little cares
aud pans are TOO trivial and unilnportant
To compensate for The additional trouble.
But il there Is any lhlns in three years ex-

say that they will amply repay for all this
additional trouble. without pains, there
