orencd the subirc. "lVlat is the best
method of cuItivltiug the soil He sail
in the first place nc would break his land
not very deep, would spread on light
dressing, pillow in the month ut June,
harrow lightly, let il rest I'LL next spring,
and would pow two inches deeper at
every subsequent blowing until he had
plowed IS inches That would give
him new soil. This method he would
apply to upIands. Sandy soils he would
thoroughly mix the dressing with the
soil. He said pin gravel spread on sandy
land would improve the soil and Increase
the crop.
Mr.. Columbus Perham said that he
could endorse Mr.. Dunham's ideas gene
rally. lie had known land plowed shotI
ror number of wears and manfred every
year to produce good crops at FIRST but
il would bccom So worn out by shoal
blowing that the crop would be mere
nothing. The Same land. after wards,
had been plowcd deep and pulyer'oI,
so as to produce new aoil, and then
good crops.
llr. Alfred Estes said he was in favor
of deep blowing, and blowing in his
manure, rs the land would not dry up 90
quick. grass would root deeper and hold
out longer, IIo would not plow wet
lands deep.
Mr.. 4. Chase said he liked summer
tilling land and deep blowing. He had got
good crops and potatoes without manu-
ring on such land iIo thought but litt.c
of the old fashion harrow-wOu.d u,,
the shear harrow which would leave the
land loose.
Mr.. J. Rowe said nc did not thu>
much of deep blowing. lie would not
take but two crops, then seed to grass,
plow again in abou! iiye years. We
should not feed our blowing land neither
spring nor tall. but should let >owel
crop remain and decay on the ground.
and with what accumuates from other
sources This would keep our farms 30
a healthy condition.
Mr.. H. Davis said he believed in
thorough mixing Of manures with the
