mind readers Of the u.e subsol blowing
and, refer them TO our former articles fo- a
more particular account of Che rationale
The use Of the subsoil plow does not elevate
the subsol 10 the surface, and thus removes
the only objection ever urged against lis
use. 1t does permit the atmosphere to enter
the soil TO greater depth. 1t enables roots
to travel through larger portions of soil,
uud thus come in contact with The greater
amount Of food. It prepares the subsoil
for future elevation aud admixture with
the surface-soil, thus deepening all Of our
soils. 1t does away with sourness Of soi
1t prevents droulh, by enabling the plmos
phere laden with moisture TO como ilI. con.
tact with cold surfaces on which it viii be
deposited by condensation. No well sub.
soied field ever suffered from drou.h. No
subsoiled meadows ever run out. For, un,
Ill roots are brought in contact with cold
and undisturhed subsoii, their crowns can
