sPLoUGHING.-Let not rood of land
be plough, in the field, nor yard be
turned by the spade in the garden when
the earth is wet or before it will fall and
crumbIe lightly If it is it will lay heavy
and clamy all summer. The object in
pIoughng is to let in the air, and pulver-
Ize the soil this can not be done when
The land is wet and heavy. 1t should be
planted as soon as possible after being
moved for the action of the air is to pro-
duce fermentation, which is wanted to
warm the seed aud cause it 10 germinate
If planting is delayed long after ploughing
or digging, the fermentation has ceased,
or greatly abated, and the plants will be
more tardy IN coming forth and will poss-
ess less vigor. We repeat, don't plough
TOO soon; wait patiently till the soil is in
proper condition, and then plant as soon
after pIoughing and narrowing as posi-
| bIe Lots designed for later planted crops
should not be poughed till planting time.
