In reply, we would provide that the

most important meane Of conveying the
ammonia Of the atmosphere to the roots Of
plants. But if there is no provision by
which it may pass down through the soil
it (the waier) evaporates, the ammonia is
liberated in the atm osphers again, and
the process OF evaporation coos the surface
OF the soil aud retards vegetable growth or
development. Water should not be al
lowed to stand on the surface of soils,
whether grain or grass lands, to evapor-
ste.

on your little domain you must make the

are necessary. And you will reap the
reward of your labor in more abundant
